Super Meat Boy will be released on Xbox Live Arcade this year, according to an image posted on creator Edmund McMillen's Facebook page.
Oct 06, 2010 Notice that the game records ghost images of my many failed attempts. Make no mistake though, there are no free rides in Super Meat Boy, even using. Super Meat Boy was a lot of fun (even though it didn't perform well on my Mac), but after my experience seeing the response to this issue doesn't surprise me. Starwed on Dec 24, 2011 Hmm, Super Meat Boy seems to be totally fine on my mac.
The image, below, shows a pixellated Xbox 360 next to an old-fashioned TV displaying the characters 'SMB XBLA 2010'. It also bears the logo of developer Team Meat.
Super Meat Boy, adapted from McMillen's Flash game Meat Boy, is due for release on WiiWare in the coming months. It's a fast-paced, challenging 2D platformer strongly influenced by the Super Mario Bros. games, starring a cuboid blob of meat.
We got a chance to try it at a WiiWare showcase last year and thought it was 'one of the most immediate and playable games on show' and 'a guaranteed cult hit'.
Could a PSN version also be in the works? Will Super Meat Boy be even harder than VVVVVV? Stay tuned to find out.
