Things may have been a bit slow on the Xbox Live Arcade since last summer's "Summer of Arcade" promotion, but things will really be picking up in March with the Xbox Live Arcade Block Party. Microsoft revealed at X10 today that the new promotion will begin on March 3 with the release of Toy Soldiers (http://www.techtalkboards.com/do/gameOverview?cId=3172280), the Arcade game we first saw last year that places you in the shoes of an antique toy soldier battling it out in a World War I diorama. Beginning tomorrow, Microsoft will launch a "companion" Facebook game called Toy Soldiers: Match Defense where you'll be able to match items in order to win countries and conquer Europe.
Also coming in March is Game Room (http://www.techtalkboards.com/do/gameOverview?cId=3172869), the new service that allows gamers to play classic arcade games. The port of N64 shooter Perfect Dark (http://www.techtalkboards.com/do/gameOverview?cId=3171327) is also scheduled for a March release, complete with enhanced graphics, leaderboards, and online multiplayer. And last is the car combat game Scrap Metal (http://www.techtalkboards.com/do/gameOverview?cId=3172873) that was revealed just last month.
March is just around the corner, so we should be hearing a lot more about all four titles very soon.
