Xbox Live Arcade Getting Pinball and more

Microsoft has done it again and provided gamers a double helping of titles. The updates will become available this Wednesday at 0900 GMT (2:00 a.m. Pacific).

Eets: Chowdown is a 2D puzzle game featuring a “surreal sense of humor.” Basically, you get to use weird-sounding items such as “spouting Prankster Whales”, “vengeful Marshomechs” or “Radioactive Ginseng” to manipulate the Eets and lead them to the end of each level. The game, developed by Klei Entertainment Inc, features 120 levels, 12 Achievements and 200 Gamerscore points.

With Pinball FX, the Zen Studios developed game offers three 3D pinball tables, real-time head-to-head mode for online multiplayer competition for up to 4 players, 12 Achievements and 200 Gamerscore points. However, there's also a twist in the offer: you can choose to play the game using an usual controller or rely on their hand or arm motions and control the flippers via the Xbox Live Vision Camera.

Both games will cost 800 Microsoft Points and are rated E for Everyone.
