The sequel to a fantastic casual game and a frustratingly hard underwater game are headed to Xbox Live Arcade, as Hexic 2 and Ecco the Dolphin are both going to be available for download this Wednesday.
Hexic 2 builds upon the gameplay of its predecessor, Hexic HD, by offering new special pieces, new challenges, additional formations and a head-to-head battle mode. DailyGame has been playing it for a few days now, and will have a full review soon.
Ecco the Dolphin, meanwhile, is a blast from the Sega Genesis past. However, like many Xbox Live Arcade games, it features several updates from the original undersea exploration game, not the least of which are an online leaderboard that tracks players’ best time, enhanced graphics and remastered sounds.
