After a month of waiting since its initial announcement, Hasbro Family Game Night is finally making its debut on the Xbox Live Arcade. Hasbro Family Game Night brings classic Hasbro board games, like Scrabble, Boggle, Battleship, Connect Four, Sorry, Yahtzee and the new Sorry Sliders. Each are brought to life in a similar fashion as their Nintendo Wii debut.
The downside to this announcement is that each game will be sold separately, so you will have to buy each game at 800 points a piece. at seven games, that comes out to $70 for all of them, equaling the full price of a standard Xbox 360 title. It was too good to think that these titles would be bundled for, say 1600 points, a price I would be happy to pay. At 800 points a piece, I will just wait until they discount them. Even worse is that the game is only $40 on the Wii. Way to stick it to the consumer Electronic Arts. Check out Microsoft’s website for more info on the title(s).
