Microsoft recently announced their Summer XBLA releases. There are no big surprises. Most, if not all the games listed were announced in July at E3.
“There have been over 45 million Xbox LIVE Arcade game downloads as of July, and the popularity of the service continues to grow. Over 100 games will launch on Xbox LIVE Arcade by year’s end, including dozens of original Intellectual Properties and classic titles updated for this generation.”
These games will be hitting XBLA before the end of August;
Hit the jump for the full list of Summer XBLA games.
