XBLA size limited up to 350MB

I very rarely these days play any of the arcade games from XBLA. The last games that got any serious play were Bomberman and Worms. Two games which I am always liable to return to for a quick play now and then. Besides those two there has been little else that has grabbed my attention.

Now with the size limit for games increased from 150MB to 350MB we might get some really interesting games being developed. Although I wonder if MS will charge a higher price if games are bigger in size?

If the games are bigger, you can bet they'll charge more, Nintendo already charge more for the different games and I think Ms will do the same.

I think they should have levels of size so if you make a group 50 game, it has to be 50MB and have categories like that so people with just memory cards can enter the section they have enough space left for.

I bought worms, played through it. Great game!

Most of the arcade is absolute trash though TBH. All the real gems are on virtual console.

So with the limit doubled is there any games you would love to see ported to XBLA that previously would not have been possible?

Daytona USA might be good.

I doubt price will increase with the size increase...
The XBLA limit used to be 50mb and was increased to 150mb with no price increase

The new arcade game today is over 150mb thats why they increased the limit and that game costs 1600points which is 400 points more then its closest rivals on xbla.

Thats because its a proper game. (Didn't see but I assume your talkin about Penny Arcade). Its a full PC game and instead of putting it on disc on 360 they just put it on Arcade
