My dream XBLA game would be X-Wing or TIE Fighter, updated to be playable with a 360 controller. If that happened, I would need to sit in the bathtub in order to contain my tears of joy.

Ah...damn! How could I have forgotten about Pitfall? I must be out of my mind! I love pitfall...and I just played it a few days ago. It's an arcade challenge in Marvel Ultimate Alliance. 3D super heroes in the good ol' 4-bit 2D game - classic.

Pitfall is just screaming for Xbox Live Arcade! It needs to be delux like Time Pilot. The original unaltered game and a snazzy HD makeover version - instant arcade classic!

Good call, my goddess.

E.T. : The Extraterrestrial ..............wait, no.

If I made an Atari 2600 list, I'd certainly put Pitfall at #1.

2. Pole Position.

3. Space Invaders

4. Yar's Revenge

There are a lot of other classic games I could mention, but surprisingly, I think a lot of them are going to be re-released through the Wii's Virtual Console =)

It would have to be Wonderboy.

Sonic is already available on the Wii Virtual Console. I suspect Paperboy will probably end up there too.

I want to see more classic Atari Titles. I'm talking about Yar's Revenge and Cubit! I wouldn't mind a few updated Commodore 64 games either like Dragon's Lair and Zaxxon.

What I think would totally own is a new Tron game designed from the ground up for Xbox live Arcade. That would be totally sweet. End of line.

I played Frogger for a bit, but it didn't hold me.

However, I've been addicted to Pac-Man, Defender, Galaga, Marble Blast, and Doom since they came out. I've also really enjoyed Cloning Clyde, Assualt Heroes, and Totem Ball every now and again. Indeed Xbox Live Arcade is great.

The current line-up looks okay with Paperboy really standing out. I know Sonic is coming somewhere down the pipe, but I've already been playing that on my Wii virtual console. Paperboy will probably grace the virtual console too.

What I really want to know is where all all the timeless Atari and Arcade titles? I'm talking about Yar's Revenge and Cubit here! That, and could you imagine a new Tron arcade game? That is the future of Xbox Live Arcade!

As I stated about Double Dragon is a game I'm excited about seeing ported. Other classic arcade games I'd like to see are Killer Instinct, maybe Mortal Kombat 2, P.O.W., Final Fight from Capcom. Those are just off the top of my head.

I've definitely played my share of the Uno and Geometry Wars. I got Doom, Street Fighter 2, and the wonderfuly weird Cloning Clyde as well. I think the next game I'm most looking forward to is Double Dragon. That was one of the first games that I obsessed over as a kid, and at the roller skating rink when all the other kids were, well, skating, I was at the DD machine!

I would like to see this happen....somehow =)

And as for that list of XBL Arcade titles announced, um...that's a nice list, I guess.

Paperboy, FTW!!!1

If all of you reading this could port a classic game or build a new one for Xbox Live Arcade, what would it be?

Personally, I'd go for some Sonic the Hedgehog (the classic Sega stuff). I believe that was announced at E3, but haven't seen anything about it.
