Three new games for XBLA tomorrow

Puzzle Bobble! Footy quiz! Tanks!

Xbox Live Arcade will offer three new games tomorrow as Bust-a-Move Live! (also known as Puzzle Bobble Live!), Football Genius and Military Madness line-up for sale.

Bust-a-Move Live! leads the pack because it's a new version of a classic franchise, and the only one we recognise.

Puzzle Bobble Live! returns the point-and-shoot puzzler to life with over 135 levels plus multiplayer head-to-head showdowns. The base game costs 800 MS Points (£6.80/€9.60), and there are Extra Packs 1 & 2 to extend the experience with.

Football Genius is a quiz with 3500 questions about the beautiful game. Four of you can play at once across a host of game modes, and Scene It? controllers are supported.

Finally, Military Madness is a turn-based real-time strategy game set on the moon - or so it seems. Backbone Entertainment (SSFII Turbo HD Remix, Everyday Shooter, Bomberman Live) is behind the game, which appeared originally on the TurboGrafx-16 many moons ago, aptly.

There's no price for the latter two.
