Manic Miner Now On XBLIG

Matthew Smith’s wonderful 80?s platformer Manic Miner is now available on the Xbox 360.

Hidden away in the Indie Games section of the Marketplace, it’s the latest game available and it’s there for a rather expensive 240 Microsoft Points.

It’s less than 2mb to download, too, so it’s pretty much instant, and there’s various options including scanlines and full screen. The free demo will give you a good taster of what to expect.

See if you can get over 1700 points on Central Cavern for a special bonus.

I tried out the demo of this and I have never gotten so annoyed and pissed off in such a short amount of time in my life!  >:(
As a kid I used to love these type of games but I just don't have the patience anymore.
Yes I'm getting old!  LOL

To be fair Manic Miner was always a tough game, personally I struggle to get past the first screen!
