What Gamespot Users have to say about Xbox Live Arcade
- Rating:7
Full Ms. Pac-Man, plus 12 playable demos including billiards, solitaire, and Bejeweled. Good way to kill a couple hours.
Although this collection of demos is intended to get you to download and pay for the full versions for original xbox live, there's enough games with several playable levels to make this worth picking up. Ok, so the "tim... Read Full Review

Needs more original games, and the expense is to great...
When I first started going over the features of the XBOX, I was probably most excited about the Arcade, but I was dissapointed. Overall it's a great interface, easy to access and use and has a wide selection of games wit... Read Full Review

Good idea, but I'd like to see cheeper games and more than just old arcade stuff.
Xbox Live Arcade for the original Xbox really didn't get going because it launched too late in the console's lifecycle to make an impact. It's a very good idea that is sure to do well on the Xbox 360, but it's not quite ... Read Full Review

With the launch of the 360, we have new life to the Arcade. Greatest new feature ever!
After all this talk about next-gen graphics and gameplay, I was pleasantly suprised to test out Xbox Live Arcade on the 360. This platform will be a lasting thing, mark my words. As a great outlet for indie game develope... Read Full Review

Great concept; easy, intuitive access; needs work, but definitely getting better!
These are the kind of games I like to play when I'm too tired to get into anything else, or nothing else in my collection really is calling to me. These also happen to be the only games my wife will play! Most are int... Read Full Review

Good laugh, but needs better retro games and to be cheaper. You're girlfriend might like it though!
This is a disc that allows you to download (with Xbox Live) and play a variety of retro arcade games, but it'll cost you. Prices vary from game to game but expect to pay between $10 and $20 each, which in my opinion is ... Read Full Review

Great games that are fun an addicting, but highly overpriced. At least you get Ms. Pac Man for free.
Nearly all of the games I've played on XBOX Live Arcade are great games. The best one in my opinion, Ms. Pac Man comes with XBOX Live Arcade. I believe you can get XBOX live arcade for free, since you have to pay for n... Read Full Review

...the Xbox Live Arcade is a very nice addition to the Xbox Live family...
Xbox Live Arcade is a disc where (with an Xbox Live account) you can play classic arcade titles such as Dig Dug, Pole Position, and Galaga...for a price, even though it comes with a free version of Ms. Pac Man. The price... Read Full Review

Xbox Live Arcade was the biggest letdown for me, they had a good idea however.
When Microsoft announced that they were bringing out a Arcade to play over XBL, I thought to myself awesome! Finally I can play all the oldschool games, and there might even be some multiplayer action. Then ofcourse, th... Read Full Review
