I think I have died and gone to heaven...

...because the classic X-Men arcade game is coming to XBOX Live and the PSN! This is awesome, I have always loved this game and I cannot wait to get it and kick ass online with Wolverine and Cyclops! Is anyone else excited to see this classic arcade game coming to home consoles?

Not meaning to derail the thread but Simpsons arcade plz. I don't think I ever played the X-Men game in arcades before (perhaps a little dabble on MAME) so Simpsons holds more personal value for me. That and Turtles. But i've heard of X-Men and it sounds like it would have been awesome to play with all 6 people.

400 MS points and I would be all over this.

This, but I'll certainly be playing the X-Men game.

This is amazing news.

Wow...that is completely and totally awesome! This is the first console release of that game, right?And yes to Simpsons Arcade as well. That game kicked ass.

This and That...

I spent dollars upon Dollars playing that turtles and Simpsons game. I don't think I played the X-Men one though.

But if it's in any way similar, I'll be up for it.

wow I actually do remember playing that way back, could be fun

So many quarters poured into this with my friends Nick and Rich, beating it once. It was awesome, my Colossus was amazing.

[HailtotheYo]

Oh God Yes.

The Simpsons Arcade Game gets played every time I go to the movie theatre. It probably has the same rights issues that the X-Men game had.

So, those of you pleasant folks who also have a PS3. Let's beat the living shit out of this game on a weekly basis.

[Skummy]

The Simpsons Arcade Game was released on the iPhone recently - in a horribly bastardised form, but it was still there, so there doesn't seem to be much in the way of rights problem, and it wouldn't be inconceivable for it to end up released on other formats.

Also, fucking yes.

I'd rather have Captain America And The Avengers, but this is cool too.

[Timmoru Suzuki]

It's out now on the 360 Marketplace (800 pts), but I can't find it on the PSN.

I'm downloading the trial now.
