Tipster VIP0R informs us that someone at Microsoft may have made a little boo-boo this morning. While browsing Inside Xbox, VIP0R came across the page pictured above. According to the page, the Sierra Online's
Zombie Wranglers is already available on
Xbox Live Arcade. Unfortunately, this contradicts the fact that the game is not, in fact, available on Xbox Live Arcade. VIP0R informs us that the link in the page led to a blank page. Furthermore, it seems the Inside Xbox page has now been replaced with a more appropriate page regarding
Feeding Frenzy 2.
Does this mean we'll be seeing
Zombie Wranglers next week? It's possible, though certainly not assured. Heck, it's possible the image above is no more than Photoshop trickery, though it looks legit to us. We'd be happy to see
Zombie Wranglers release next week, so long as it doesn't interfere with the launch of
Duke Nukem 3D, of course.

I'm interested in anything that reminds me of Zombies Ate My Neighbors. That should be redone on XBLA with online co-op. I'd buy it instantly.
But in the meantime, I hope this is fun.

It's legit, I saw it last night and thought, "Ooh, never heard of that one". Pressed A and was greeted with a 'No items in that category' message.

Yeah AceyBongos (the Xbox Community Manager EMEA) actually said this was released last week over on his site, so I guess it's going to be soon... Maybe this week along with DN3D?

I was one of the devs on Zombie Wranglers...all i am at liberty to say at this point is that the game, indeed, has not been released.
My take on the gameplay is that it's sort of an XBLA-sized cross between Zombies Ate My Neighbors and Psychonauts, if that helps. I consider it pretty fun, and i'm kind of a tough audience...hopefully you will have the chance to adjudicate this for yourselves shortly.
