X3F TV -- XBLA in Brief: Triggerheart Exelica

For the latest edition of XBLA in Brief -- where we take a look at the trial versions of the latest Xbox Live Arcade games -- we're doing something a little different. Rather than type up a long summary of a three minute trial game, we've put together a video that highlights everything you need to know. Please, enjoy our look at Triggerheart Exelica, and tell us what you think of us using video for XBLA in Brief.

This video is also our latest episode of X3F TV, and subscribers to the 360 Fancast will receive it via their aggregator of choice. The M4V is also available for download right here. The high resolution streaming version can be found by clicking the "read" link.

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.

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.
