The underwater adventure game of wetness Undertow is this week's XBLA release and for 800 Microsoft points it promises "non-stop conquest-style battles" that "push the envelope of onscreen effects and combat action". Intense stuff, we know. Undertow has already received some, so we'll see if the game's multiplayer and overall underwater feel deem it worthy enough of our 800 points and official X3F stamp of approval. But we aren't giving out awards or committing to a purchase until Wednesday. Sit tight, Undertow is near.

My thoughts after I played this in May at one of the Microsoft community events? Meh. Lots of swimming around, shooting stuff, but I couldn't figure out any point to it. I played multiplayer with someone, and we had no idea how we got points. I'll pass on this one.

Still waiting for Castle Crashers. Anyone else have some good XBLA games they know are around the corner?

May was admittedly almost 6 months ago... Hopefully it's improved since then? Guess we'll see.

Dammit i thought this had something to do with the Tool album and some sort of XBLA game based on it :-/ Granted that's rediculous on so many levels but still, there was a brief glimmer...

"Undertow has already received some"
I think he meant, "Undertow has already received some attention."

No no no it's 'some'.
As in Duke Nukem's "Come get some!"
