Five XBLA games dated

360 News | Including Marvel vs. Capcom 2, Trials HD and Turtles.
Major Nelson has revealed a host of of Xbox Live Arcade release dates, dubbing it the '2nd Summer of Arcade'. Or 'Winter of Arcade', if you're south of the equator.

First out the gate will be Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled on the 22 July, at a cost of 1200 MS points. It's remake of the Turtles in Time arcade game, so expect some fancy, upgraded graphics and multiplayer button-bashing fun.

Next up will be the XBLA port of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 a week later on the 29th, with 56 different characters from the Marvel and Capcom universes battling it out for fun. Sounds exciting. Again, this one will set you back 1200 MS points.

On 5 August, Splosion Man will arrive from the creators of The Maw - Twisted Pixel Games. Apparently, the titular hero will be able to explode whenever he feels necessary, which should produce some rather comedic results. Apparently, there are 50 single and multiplayer levels to blow through, so there is potentially some good value to be had for the 800 points it will cost you.

Bike racer Trials HD will land on 12 August, with 'stunning HD graphics' in tow. Again, there will be 50 tracks to race around, plus the ability to create tracks and upload them to the 'net for all to see. 1200 MS points, if you're up for it.

Wrapping things up will be Shadow Complex on the 19th of August, a classic-style side-scrolling adventure from Epic. It will come at a cost of 1200 MS points.

I only got my eyes on MvC2 at the moment. I'm with with that Marka, some games don't seem the 1200MS point worth, but what can you do?

I don't think I'll get Turtles, not for 1200 bucks, I will get Splosion Man and Trials though, maybe MvC2 as well.
