Boom Boom Rocket for XBLA

It's a small surprise, but why not after all. Electronic Arts announced the release this spring of Boom Boom Rocket, a Xbox Live Arcade title developed by Bizarre Creations. It certainly looks like it shares a few things with Geometry Wars, but I'm certainly not complaining at all. First screen inside.

Cool. doesn't look like it plays like geometry wars. I wonder if it will be a game that we play to the beat of a song. Like elite beats or some kind of DDR.

what about Settlers of Catan, Bizarre? Although this looks quite nice, it's from EA . . ... makes me feel uneasy

besides, I cannot see that SerpentineDBol font anymore, it's heavily overused ;)

Looks interesting. But I refuse to support EA in any way until they discontinue their horrid business practices.

What's up?

bleachedsmiles anybody remember unreal tournaments answer to couter-strike? i think it was a mod called special forces? I remember liking it (17 minutes ago)
Slabs Infantry in FFOW is alright as long as you're a bazooka dude. (21 minutes ago)
Doom_Bringer @GriftGFX: I played the demo long time ago :P Any for me Dice > IW, the only great game IW made was Medal of Honor Allied Assualt and that's it. I don't care about them, never will! (22 minutes ago)
GriftGFX Yea but you also said the infantry combat in FFOW was good.. and it blows :P (25 minutes ago)
Doom_Bringer @digi_matrix: yea the demo I played was awful...but that was single player. I was in the beta for WaW and didn't like it...felt like counter strike + unreal tournament (movement is too fast) (27 minutes ago)
GriftGFX @digi_matrix: Controls... better... Halo? Does not compute. (28 minutes ago)
Burglarize Definitely agree on the Counterstrike comment. Damn I used to love that game. Ruined my sleeping pattern for the entirety of my school life. (29 minutes ago)
