War World wages worldwide this Wednesday [update 1]

Update: According to Microsoft, the only game being released on Xbox Live Arcade this week is Puzzle Fighter. Looks like War World fans will have to wait.

It has been officially announced on the War World forums that the multiplayer mech-tastic shooter will make its debut this Wednesday alongside old-school puzzler Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. In celebration of this fact, Third Wave Games is hosting a special match of the PC version of War World, after which players are encouraged to stay up until 12:01 PT and download the XBLA version. Oh, and don't worry, the developers are "100% sure there will be at least 8-16 players online with the Xbox 360 version within an hour of the game's release on Wedsday," so you should have a few good folks to play with.

WOW is all I can say. Last week sounded good but ST:NYC was a HUGE disappointment and Space G was ok. This on the other hand is AWESOME and to get two BIG titles like these make me all warm inside!!!

At #5

I thought that was out on the marketplace already? I love how it says soccer and football in the description for it, kinda funny. Anyway the title Sensible World of Soccer is oddly hilarious. If you don't have it for download yet I take it you aren't in the states.
