Sensible World Of Soccer coming to Live! Options

[The Ghost of Inept Pig]

Not that it'll mean much to you who have never partaken in the finest footballing game ever made, but this has just confirmed that I'm going to be spending much more of my time of the Live Arcade from now on:

Microsoft also announced a partnership with Codemasters, that will see them bringing several titles to Xbox Live. The first will be Sensible World of Soccer, a new version of the classic franchise. The XBL version will feature online modes, including tournaments and leagues, as well as the regular offline modes. Players will have the option of choosing HD 720p graphics or the original, retro graphics.

Said Nick Pili, Codemasters' director of casual gaming, "Sensible World of Soccer for Xbox 360 Live Arcade will enable fans of the original and a new generation of gamers to experience a beautiful game that's recognised as the classic Sensi title. Making use of Xbox Live for online multiplayer matches will take the SWOS experience to a whole new level of gameplay perfection."

I'm so very, very happy!
