XBLA Game Room|Classic arcade action on the Xbox 360

This week’s release of retro titles for the Game Room service over Xbox LIVE on the Xbox 360 console is looking like it will be on time. Not only that, but we’re back on track here on the site too because of it. Game Room will get three new games from the Atari 2600, one for Intellivision, and one Konami arcade title. Just a friendly reminder, whenever possible we will release the upcoming week’s new titles on our Twitter account @XBLAGameRoom and on our Facebook Page as soon as we know them. Possibly even a whole six days earlier than they are released! So, without further delay, here are the releases for Wednesday, June 9th:

There is no need to download Game Pack 005 from the LIVE servers for both Xbox 360 and PC if you already did so last week. Still no word yet on why there are only five titles this week, but we will be conducting an interview with Game Room creators Krome Studios later this week! If you didn’t download Game Pack 005 last week, you should be able to do so for free right now. This week’s Game Room are:

• Baseball (Intellivision / Mattel)
• Circus (Atari 2600)
• River Raid 2 (Atari 2600 / Activision)
• Sky Jinks! (Atari 2600)
• Video Hustler (Arcade / Konami)

As we mentioned earlier, you will notice that last week’s trend of just five new games has continued this week. We also have it on good authority that next week will be the same.

Again, we’d like to point out that you’ll notice a video review will appear here on Wednesday or Thursday of each week reviewing the Game Room titles listed above. As with previous weeks, each game is linked to their respective Wikipedia page providing one exists.
