Xbox Live director of programming Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb has revealed the dates and prices for the upcoming XBLA "House Party" promotion, which kicks off next week with Hard Corps: Uprising.

On February 23 the addictive, casual title Bejeweled Blitz Live arrives for 800MS Points ($10); March 2 brings Beyond Good & Evil in remastered high-def form for a surprising 800MS Points ($10); Torchlight finally hacks (and slashes) its way on the Xbox Live Arcade on March 9 for 1200MS Points ($15); and the Avatar-starring Full House Poker comes in at 800MS Points on March 16.

Previously, Konami had announced Hard Corps: Uprising would arrive on February 16 for 1200MS Points ($15). Start saving those Microsoft Space Dollars, folks.

Both Hard Corps and Beyond Good & Evil HD are coming to the PlayStation Network; however, release dates have yet to be revealed.

    15 for the contra remake? Salebait right there folks. Officially back-burnered. BG&E HD for $10 that's a definite maybe pending some glowing comments or reviews.

      Its not a contra remake, its the spiritual successor to contra hard corps.
      Ii would have preferred a remake of Contra with HD graphics instead of this though.

      You need reviews for BG&E HD? BG&E original was fan-fucking-tastic. I'm buying it again.
