New XBLA Title – GripShift

There’s another racer headed to the Xbox Live Arcade this year.  Sidhe Interactive announced that their award-winning driving platformer title, GripShift, is headed our way.  It’s an Xbox Live Arcade exclusive that will feature updated graphics, improved controls and additional single and multiplayer content, including new Challenge courses and a Deathmatch mode.

“Veteran players and newcomers to the game will both find something to love in this definitive version of GripShift,” said Mario Wynands, Managing Director of Sidhe Interactive. “We’ve added a substantial amount of new content, including new single player courses and a multiplayer Deathmatch mode for players bent on dominating their friends or climbing to the top of the leaderboards.”

It looks pretty good I must say.  Those of you ready to give something other than Mad Tracks a spin, might be in luck with this one.  If it doesn’t make it this year, don’t point the finger at me.

    I havent bought an arcade game since Marble Blast Ultra was released. I played this once on my sons PSP. It’s kind of a racing game but really its more of a puzzle game.

    It’s worth 400 points IMO.

    yeah Decon, just to say this title isn’t an XBLA exclusive. It was originally released on the PSP, and i believe that it has also been released on the PSN
