■ 26/05/08 - Wits and Wagers Even if trivia isn�t your thing, the first trivia and party game to hit Xbox Live Arcade is one in which players can win by making educated guesses, playing the odds or just knowing the interests of other players, whether they are local or online.

■ 23/05/08 - Wits and Wagers You’ve just got to love Xbox Live Arcade. Here, you can find just about any type of game you’re looking for. You want a fast-paced space shooter? You’ve got Ikaruga.
