Yep I don't have a 360 but theres one good reason for buying one! Does anyone know if there are plans to bring any other retro goodies to the 360, other rare/ultimate games for example?

i think they probably will, seeing as ultimate were popular & Rare havent been doing well with their last few titles apparently. Rare need a winner & i think ultimate games on xbla is the answer

When XNA games start to appear on the XBLA, the sky's the limit. There are already MAME emulators written, so pretty much anything is possible. I guess it just comes down to rights and royalties whether they get officially released.

It was one of the eight Interface II cartridge games made (they're worth a bit now), but was available on tape under two publishers, Sinclair published it on their silver label as well as Ultimate.
Does anyone know when this will be available?
Unrelated, I don't see the Star Trek: Legacy demo available on XBL, is it just me?

i bet therell be only one screen on this in the demo, as there was on tmnt. xbla demos are too short.
Only completed this one though it was an anticlimax to spend hours doing million & 1 levels in one go only for it to auto carry on from the beginning.
There was a bug in AticAtac, got the 3 keys back to the main door, but couldnt swap them around to finish
Would be interesting to actually finish the Hobbit without the bug preventing you
