Radiant Silvergun headed to Xbox Live Arcade

   I've heard about Microsoft trying to get Radiant Silvergun on the XBLA for at least 2 years. At least. The Xbox 360 is the default console for shooters at the moment so it was a no-brainer to get Treasure's little treasure onto the Xbox.

   Radiant Silvergun was originally released on the Sega Titan ST-V arcade hardware so the code probably needed to be ported over, tweaked, cleaned up, and tweaked some more but Treasure's on the job. Microsoft and Treasure announced the availability of RS on XBL sometime in 2011 and the game will include new features such as updated graphics, a cooperative mode, and a SuperPlay feature where players can download play-data from other gamers and watch them in the game. I'm assuming that the resale value of Radiant Silver (Saturn) on Ebay's going to drop from the current average of US$250 to a more reasonable $150 or maybe even $100. Widespread availability of popular and rare games tends to kill the price.
