This Week’s Xbox Live Arcade Releases: Fish, Dominos, and Train Maps

This week’s Xbox Live Arcade releases is an odd mix. You have the sequel to the strangely addictive big fish-eat-little fish game, Feeding Frenzy 2: Shipwreck Showdown, a dominos game Domino Master, and the second expansion for Ticket to Ride: 1910 USA.
Feeding Frenzy 2 brings up to 4 player co-op and competitive online play, as well as some minigames. Domino Master is… dominos. There’s a few modes, including “Mexican Train” which seems to resemble Rack-O. Both are 800 MSP ($10).
Perhaps the best of this week is the 1910 USA Map, since it adds 35 new destination tickets, the Globetrotter bonus card (for completing the most routes), and a huge map. It’s pricy for an expansion (400 MSP - $5), but it’s a must-buy for Ticket to Ride fans.

Can you give more details about the new map for 1910? In the physical version of the game, the only thing that comes with the expansion are the cards.

The map, from what I understand, is more dense with cities. At least, that’s what’s implied in the Achievement listed.
