Triggerheart Exelica shmups XBLA

The latest Xbox Live Arcade release is now available in the form of Triggerheart Exelica. We haven't performed a thorough search, but we're fairly certain that Triggerheart Exelica has the most nonsensical and least descriptive name on the download service. It may interest you to know that it's a vertically scrolling shooter of the old-school variety. It features little bitty anime characters blasting away at little bitty planes and tanks as well as humongous bosses. Also worth noting, the actual game only takes up about 1/3 of the screen. Our condolences to those with small televisions. The full version is available for 800 points.
Triggerheart Exelica storms the XBLA this week
Releasing to the XBLA this Wednesday for a cool 800 Microsoft points is Triggerheart Exelica and its prettified HD graphics, updated musical score and some sort of interesting feature called a V.B.A.S. It's enough purple colored Japanese side-scrolling action to keep you satisfied for months and months to come. Triggerheart Exelica also promises to make your inner anime fanboy squeal with excitement. Though, we can't make a guarantee.
Rumor: XBLA gets Triggerheart Exelica this week [update]
Editor's update: It appears we've already covered this particular story. Xbox 360 Fanboy apologizes for the error and the writer responsible has been placed in a burlap sack and beaten with reeds.IGN noticed that Japanese developer Warashi is confirming that their baby Triggerheart Exelica will be releasing to the Xbox Live Arcade this Wednesday, February 27th. Their official website tells us that this 2D shooter will be 800 Microsoft points and should offer exactly what Triggerheart gave us on the Dreamcast. It also should make the Xbox 360 "dance beautifully" (inside Google translate joke). Again, Triggerheart Exelica isn't 100% confirmed for release this week as Microsoft will make that announcement in but a few hours. Though, we'd be willing to make $3 wager on this rumor being true ... we just have a feeling.

Rez and Ikaruga confirmed for XBLA

Proving that the Tokyo Game Show is about more than just announcing Ninja Gaiden 2, several new (and notably Japanese) games have been announced for Xbox Live Arcade. First and foremost among these are Lumines creator Tetsuya Mizuguchi's Rez and Treasure's Ikaruga. While Ikaruga's appearance on XBLA shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who's been paying attention, Rez comes as a pretty big surprise. If you're not familiar with Rez, you're probably better off watching the video embedded after the break than having us attempt to explain it.
Microsoft also touted several other games for XBLA including EXIT (previously announced), Every Extend Extra Extreme (ditto), Omega Five (impressions), and Triggerheart Exelica (a shooter apparently). Things are looking up for XBLA, no?
