BOCA RATON, FL , announced they are releasing extra content for
their Xbox LIVE� Arcade title Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe.
Over the coming weeks a steady stream of new content will be
made available for download. It has already started with the
release of the new "Theme Pack," containing four exclusive
backdrops and a tiled Xbox blade. This week, it will be followed by
the addition of four new downloadable 3D Arenas, each with three
variants that gives players even more customizable options.
"Offering extra content allows users to tailor the unique
Speedball experience to their own individual tastes," said Ian
Higgins, CEO of Empire Interactive, "and it provides additional
opportunities to increase awareness, and ultimately downloads of
the full product."
Since its release on October 17, Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe has
generated an extraordinary number of downloads on Xbox LIVE�
Arcade, and received extensive coverage and rave reviews in the
gaming press.
"One of the all-time classic retro games." -- Official Xbox 360
Magazine
"The sort of game that makes Xbox Live Arcade one of the most
exciting gaming platforms around." -- Euro Gamer
Mike Montgomery, of developers Bitmap Brothers added, "The extra
content dramatically enhances game play, and contributes to
creating the definitive Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe package."
Widely regarded as a break-through title that took the sports
genre to a new level, the Bitmap Brothers classic, Speedball, was
first released for the Amiga in 1990 and quickly became a huge
success. However it wasn't until the release of its sequel,
Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe that the title reached new gaming
heights and sold over 2 million units. It is still considered by
many to be one of the best games of all time.
The Xbox LIVE Arcade version is a perfect conversion of
Speedball II: Brutal Deluxe but with the addition of an all-new
High Definition version, more teams and downloadable content, while
still retaining all the classic elements that have made it a top
favorite amongst gamers.
Xbox LIVE Arcade is the central destination for Xbox 360 gamers
to download and buy smaller games on the Xbox 360 console. Xbox
LIVE Arcade offers a large catalogue of fun, broad-appeal games
that can be downloaded via Xbox LIVE.
