Uh oh. It's ON! Xbox Live Arcade group manager Greg Canessa hates Nintendo games. Okay, maybe that's a bit sensationalistic. But he did say that Joust is better than the entirety of Nintendo's back catalog. Alright, he didn't quite say that either, but he does think that the XBLA service is much stronger than what "Revolution" will have to offer with its Virtual Console feature. To be fair, I don't think I'll log many hours with Clu Clu Land when I get my hands on the next Nintendo console and Geometry Wars is the best Xbox 360 game available, but really, Greg. Kid Icarus holds up!

Mr. Canessa also expressed his doubts that Sony can come through the way Microsoft has with their own online offering, PlayStation World. Get your fanboy sword and shield and head over to Next Gen for all the inflamatory posturing.
