Confirmed: Heavy Weapon nukes XBLA next week [update 1]

Update: Our buddy, Mike, from the Xbox Domain has confirmed this rumor. Heavy Weapon is scheduled to hit XBLA on January 17. Thanks, Tom, for sending this in.
Coming from Xbox 360 Fanboy reader, DaKing240, is the rumor that Heavy Weapon will be hitting Xbox Live Arcade next week. Of course, our first thought is that Heavy Weapon is not, with very few exceptions, Worms. Still, Heavy Weapon is a great game, and we're sure it will only be made better by the inclusion of Live co-op. DaKing240 claims to have official confirmation of the title from the developer itself, so it seems like a safe bet. Not only that, but Heavy Weapon was supposed to come out during the holidays last year, so it makes sense that it would be ready to go now. If you haven't tried Heavy Weapon, we'd highly recommend you play the web version or grab the trial demo. And remember, before you complain about a high price tag on the XBLA version (we expect 800 points at least), rejoice in the fact that you won't have to pay the PC price: $19.95.

Hey! This is totally unrelated, but did you get an update for Xbox Live? What was it for? tried to hit up the editors but don't know how. Anyone else get it?

Never played it, but since Popcap allows an hour of time on its titles, I can preview it on the PC. ;)

That's not by any chance 'that game' featured in the video demonstrating the drag and drop interface of XNA gamestudio express is it?
