Well this is certainly new and refreshing. This week sees the release of two new Live Arcade games at the same time. Both the arcade classic Gyruss and the all new Sierra Online sports game, 3D Ultra MiniGolf Adventures will be available this Wednesday early in the morning time, at the cost of 400 and 800 points respectively.

3D Ultra MiniGolf Adventures is a game already released on the PC through GameTap, that features 3D minigolf adventure of the ultra variety, hence the name. It includes online play as well as a course editor so you can layout your own course using the game's three themes, Carnival, Old West, and Outer Space.

Gyruss is still Gyruss, and there ain't nothing wrong with that. There's an enhanced mode and supposedly some online play but hey, Gyruss. Woot.

I wish one of the games were as exciting as the fact that we're getting two at once this week. A sign of things to come, or just a fluke? Michael Fahey>
