Live Arcade Wednesday 03/28/2007: Jetpack Refuelled
Five bucks? It’s definitely not a mind-bending game by any means, but it’s definitely a fun, zippy (?) arcade game and seems to fit right into the Live Arcade portfolio. Of course, I’m talking about Jetpack Refuelled on the 360′s Live Arcade, which is available today on the Marketplace.
400 points ($5 US) seems like a great deal so far for this retro little package. I’ve just cracked the surface but I’ll be sure to give you a full review soon. Until then, you should try the demo out, it’s surprisingly addictive.
Full specs inside.
