One winner will receive a download code for Word Puzzle, worth $10

Just to be clear, this is not this week's Fanswag Weekly giveaway. That will go up tomorrow as usual. If you're lucky enough, maybe you can while away the hours between now and then with a free copy of Word Puzzle.

Word Puzzle hits XBLA, SwitchBall is hiding

It's Xbox Live Arcade Wednesday folks, and that means brand new gaming goodness to enjoy. This week under "New Arrivals" you will find the incredibly exciting and action packed Word Puzzle. What you will not find is Switchball. Don't fret though, Switchball is there, it's just not in new arrivals for some reason. We imagine Microsoft will fix this at some point, but for now you'll have to dig through the "Genres" or "All Arcade Downloads" section to find the game. You can find it under "Action Arcade" in the genres, or (more conveniently) under the letter "S" in all arcade downloads. We were upset before we discovered the games secret bunker, as it looks to be the more intriguing of this week's two titles (check out the video above if you don't believe us). Should you desire the full version of either game, they will run you 800 Microsoft bucks each.

Word Puzzle and Switchball XBLA bound

Another XBLA twofer is headed our way this week with both Word Puzzle and Switchball making XBLA appearances this Wednesday, November 7th.

Word Puzzle, the game's title pretty much says it all. Word Puzzle is an interactive word find that'll feature four player Xbox Live versus, two player local, Vision camera support and things called "word bombs" all for the gotta-try-the-trial-before-I-shell-out-the-cash price of 800 Microsoft points. Switchball is the second half of the XBLA twofer where, for 800 Microsoft points, you can navigate your ball through all kinds of 3D puzzles and mazes. The game includes two player local co-op, two player co-op over Live and eight player versus over Live. What more can be said ... balls will roll this Wednesday.
