E309: What Microsoft's also bringing to the Xbox Live Arcade
Microsoft spent surprisingly little time talking about Xbox Live Arcade developments during its press conference yesterday -- and left its Community Games section even further in the dust -- but GamerBytes has uploaded the above sizzle reel showing a few of this year's upcoming downloadables.
Though it's marked as internally developed, Splosion Man is a new platformer from Twisted Pixel, the creators of excellent PC/XBLA action/puzzler The Maw, and you'll also see, among other things, another look at the microtransaction supported avatar racer Joyride from Vancouver's BigPark, a quick look at the dual analog sidescrolling shooter Shadow Complex from former Advent Rising devs and Undertow creators Chair, and RedLynx's heavily physics-enabled motocross-y puzzle game Trials, now due for a console release.

I coined a term specifically for how I feel about Trials HD and how I know I'll feel when it comes out: anticifrustration. I'm curious to see how it translates to analog stick though.
