Aces of the Galaxy and Roogoo for Live Arcade

360 News | Coming Wednesday, as per usual.
It just wouldn't be Wednesday without Microsoft throwing up some new games on Live Arcade for us, and this week will be no exception with Aces of the Galaxy and Roogoo being available to download.

Aces of the Galaxy will be an old school shooting affair, putting players in the seats of a high tech space ship where they must shoot down lots of enemies in order to save the whole universe from the nasty Skurgian Empire. Expect a vast arsenal of weapons as well as a co-op option, available on the same 360 or over Live. If you're interested, you can investigate the official site here.

On the other hand, Roogoo is a rather cutesy puzzler with an action twist, where players must save the Roogoo from Meemoo, who is presumably rather bad. The game works by lining up various platforms spaced across several levels - when enough of them stack up on top of each other, that shape closes off the platform. On top of that, Meemoos try to make things difficult and the terrible creatures known as butterflies attempt to steal blocks. It all sounds very confusing, but we're sure that it will start to make sense after 45 levels. There are also multiplayer modes, as you would expect. Click here for the first images.

Both Roogoo and Aces of the Galaxy will go up on the Arcade on Wednesday and will set players back 800 MS points each.
