Missile Command Exploding On XBLA Wednesday
Posted by x3sphere at July 2, 2007, 11:08 am

Microsoft has announced that this Wednesday’s Xbox Live Arcade title will be Missile Command, an enhanced version of the 1980 arcade classic, complete with 3D visuals, co-op multiplayer, and twelve Achievements.
While staying true to the original arcade classic, the enhanced “Missile Command†for Xbox LIVE Arcade has players acting as regional commander of three anti-missile batteries defending six cities in their zone. As Planet Zardon is under attack by an endless hail of interplanetary ballistic missiles from Krytol, players must act fast to fend off the missiles and keep their cities intact. Gliding across the sky, players complete levels by taking out all enemy weaponry. At the end of a level, players can earn bonus points for the more cities that remain and the fewer missiles that are used.
Missile Command will go live on Wednesday, July 4 at 9:00 a.m. GMT.
