Space Invaders Extremeis a damn fine DS title, and it’s sure to look even prettier on an HDTV when it comes to the Xbox Live Arcade. If you don’t like pretty things, however, don’t worry. The XBLA version looks like it willinclude the old schoolSpace Invadersgame for nothing.
As always, it’s left to the ESRB to give the details away, stating thatExtreme“includes the original version ofSpace Invaders, as well as new stages, bosses, and alien types.” Good old ESRB, the best spokesman the games industry never had. This may be a case of dodgy writing on the part of the ESRB, but if not, then free retro for all!
If you haven’t playedExtreme, it’s worth a go, original version or not. It shall be a fine addition to the XBLA roster, especially with the DS version discontinued.
