Bring *Insert title here* to XBox Live Arcade!

Ok, so I'm not on XBox Live yet, but here's some games I think would be great for XBox Live Arcade:

1. Alien VS Predator Arcade Game- Capcom
2. TMNT Arcade game
3. TMNT: Turtles in Time
4. BattleToads (Any and/or all of the games)

There's already been talk of the TMNT hitting the arcade. It'll happen eventually. You can bet on that. As for what I'd like to see...

Metal Slug 1-3 (One of them is coming already. I don't know which. I just don't want that pos MS4. I'll get it if they release it though.)
Dungeons and Dragons: Tower of Doom or Shadow Over Mystara (These would be amazing in terms of leader boards and online co-op. They're stupid if they don't do this.)
Bubble Bobble
Killer Instinct (This is a no brainer)
Banjo Kazooie (No chance in hell, but they could do it. Even if they charged a full 1,250 points I would get it.)

There's some really great stuff coming out for XBLA already. Stuff like Super Contra, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3, Paperboy, and the Incredible Machine. What I'm really looking forward too though are the games made specifically for XBLA. My favourite XBLA game so far has been Cloning Clyde, so I'm really looking forward to some of the made-for XBLA stuff. Castle Crashers, Hoop World and Small Arms immediately come to mind. Castle Crashers is just going to be a ton of fun with online co-op, and Small Arms is basically Smash Bros with guns. Totally looking forward to the future of XBLA.

I came to the decision long ago that I would purchase all console games on the Virtual Console, but ALL on my Arcade purchases are going to the XBL Arcade. I don't want to play Sonic the Hedgehog on the 360. It feels pointless. It was a home game, and should be enjoyed in a home environment, which the VC provides perfectly, but the online environment, high score tracking, and interface of the XBLArcade is as close as we'll ever get to the real arcade ever again. Plus, it's got room for growth. I imagine one day having an updated Hub with all our virtual arcade machines or something to customize, but for now, I'm more than pleased with what we've got.

I think everybody on the planet would hit Marvel versus Capcom, but Capcom is too fu*king cheap to renew their license so they can add online play, so it'll never happen. Small Arms, I really don't have any interest in. I'll just wait for the real deal next fall. As for everything else...

Banjo-Kazooie (it'll never happen, and franly, I'd rather Nintendo get it so as to not tamper with the N64 references in the game)
Daytona USA
(honestly, you put this bad boy online, and the world will come)
Goldeneye (people loved it for the levels, not the engine. Update the engine, and give us the classic stages, and we're good to go. Fu*k Doom)
Anything Street Fighter - Til' death do us part...which probobly won't be long
All the old Namco arcade games (last time I'm paying for them in this legal arcade)
Super GT - Massively underappriciated Sega Arcade racing classic.
Crazy Taxi - With two play versus mode in the same city.


Oh hell, why make a list. I'm buying pretty much everything they put out. It's one of my favourite things about the machine. Here's hoping it grows exponentially.

It would blow...hard. Goldeneye has not aged well. I don't know how many times I've had a discussion about this before, but people just seem to think Goldeneye is the be all, end all of console FPS games...it's not. It was great for it's time, when all us console kids were FPS n00bs, but the game is complete garbage now. There's just no fun to be had with it.

I know that. It sucks in it's current form. That's why i said overhaul it. The multiplayer arenas were beautifully designed, but the engine is fossilized beyond redemption. I don't want that ancient POS. It needs to be modernized....like this.
