Capcom recently announced that Xbox Live Arcade game Rocketmen: Axis of Evil will be getting an expansion on Wednesday, May 14th, even though nobody really asked for it.The Rocketmen "It Came From Uranus" expansion pack (whose name coincidentally makes twelve year olds roll on the floor with uncontrollable laughter) will add three new weapons (Blobber, Beamer and Bomber), two new secondary weapons (Falcon and Screw Bomb) and three new levels. The worst part is that this expansion will cost you 400 Microsoft points on top of the 800 points which are required to spend on Axis of Evil. An amount that we doubt most XBLA fanboys would be willing to spend.

I usually buy interesting looking XBLA games as well. I stopped flat out buying without playing them after Rocketmen though. Such a sloppy game, IMO. Really the only XBLA game I've regretted buying out of the 73 I currently "own." Haven't played it since it came out though, so I don't know if it's been fixed (specifically the scrolling).
If it has, I may pick up the expansion. Providing it offers new achievements of course.

Ugh. The sad thing about the lousy Rocketman XBLA game and this lame-sounding expansion is that the tabletop game they're based on was really fun and pretty unique. Too bad the XBLA game had, like, nothing in common with it.
