You can bet that Wits and Wagers is XBLA bound

Again, our trusty friend the ESRB has come to the rescue in fulling our insatiable appetite for upcoming (and totally unannounced) XBLA games with their latest listing for Wits and Wagers.
Wits and Wagers will be a title developed by the crew over at Hidden Path Entertainment and solely for the Xbox 360. In general, Wits and Wagers is a board game where players answer trivia and place bets on which guess is closest to the actual answer. Simple enough. Though, we're curious to see how well Hidden Path can pull off a game like Wits and Wagers seeing that their only experience on the 360 is an XNA demo and creating a trivia game isn't the easiest genre to make entertaining. It doesn't really matter though. We're just proud that we discovered another upcoming XBLA game long before its announcement. We so cool!

This is a great party game and everyone who plays it loves it. I hope it translates well to XBLA.

Take a look at Hidden Path's website - they were all members of the Xbox 360 launch team for Microsoft and before that were key players in Mechwarrior, Age of Kings, Half-Life, other little games like that.
I'll wager they can handle trivia. :) I love the board game, can't wait to see how it works with controller and screen.
