Microsoft Officially Relaxes Xbox Live Arcade Limits

Officials from Microsoft have confirmed that the maximum total size of an Xbox Live Arcade download has been increased from 50MB to 150MB.

...note that this is largely due to the new, larger memory card. Again, the idea of the limit is to make the games fit on a mem card for the users who still choose to use a card.

...and no developer should need more then 50mb to bring PacMan or Paperboy anyway.

Its 150MB now the limit, they should of made it 200MB but it does not matter that much to me.

Funky Town_TX6251d ago

what is this going to cost? $70 maybe.

zonetrooper56251d ago

I have already got the HDD, i got the premium package not the tard pack without the wireless controller, no headset and no hard drive.

That is what I said when making my Xbox 360 purchase. Is there any point in not getting the premium bundle?

It's A Crime That There's No Sleeping Dogs 2 Yet

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II - PC Wore it Better

Lord of the Rings: Battle for Middle-earth II was an intriguing and unique RTS title, that sadly suffered in its console port.

Was just thinking about this game and wishing I had a way to revisit it. The way EA scrubs these titles from existence once their licensing runs out is horrid.

there is a client made by modders and it also works online.

Indeed. The game can still be played online on PC.

Xbox 360 players, though? Bang outta luck.
