Sidhe Interactive along with Kohnke Communications invited me to a special conference call on Friday to discuss the upcoming GripShift XBL Arcade game. The call was hosted by Mario Wynands (Managing Director) and Jos Ruffel (Business Development) from Sidhe Interactive. They went into details of the game and here are some of the details worth mentioning. The game hits XBL on Wednesday December 12th and will cost 800 Microsoft points. The game will feature 165 tracks 9 new weapons 12 in all and feature offline and online play. While the game is not new the Xbox Live Arcade version has been changed to take advantage of the Xbox 360. It will also feature tracks never before seen. Online up to 4 players can play in ranked or unranked matches and the Leaderboards will track almost every detail of the game. Offline the game will feature 120 challenges and the achievements where created by gamers input on their forums.

Additionally DLC support is planned as well as developers gaming nights to take on the creators. We would like to thank Sidhe Interactive and Kohnke Communications for the invite and a special thanks to Jos and Mario for their time. GripShift is the newest arcade game to be announced for release and it sounds like a fun one to look for.
