More MS Rumors: Ninja Blade, Lips and Scene It? 2

May 12, 2008 1:29 PM

Though Microsoft's Spring Showcase event doesn't take place until tomorrow, more supposed details have emerged to accompany the already-leaked media and rumors of a motion-sensitive Xbox 360 controller.

Tomorrow's announcements apparently include a sequel to the Xbox 360 movie-trivia title Scene It?, a game called Ninja Blade, and something known only as Lips. That is, according to listings that supposedly popped up on a Microsoft's press site and were captured by NeoGAF.

Apart from the product names, no other details are available. Some believe that Lips could be a voice-controlled game or a voice-related accessory, though it is all just idle speculation at this point.

The listings also suggest that the Viva Pinata sequel that unofficially debuted this morning will be known as Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise.

Check back with Shacknews tomorrow morning for the full scoop on Microsoft's Spring Showcase and its many titles, including Banjo Kazooie (X360).

Scene it 2? How about that DLC for Scene It 1?

  I wonder if Ninja Blade could be the game that Ninja Theory is working on?

  That's what I've been wishing for a while now. I'm much more likely to spend $10 on DLC than $60 for more of the same.

  Scene It 1 is such a great party game for non-gamers. Either give me DLC or give me a sequel that doesn't force me to pay $60 and get four more controllers.

    I agree with the DLC stuff, even though my family has yet to see any dupe questions. Videos yes (Once) but not questions. And I'd like to think that MS Marketing would be smart enough to put out two packages, one with the controllers, and one without.

    This to me sounds like an extreme case of only keeping yourself from having fun by being overly critical of a game. Seriously, the presentation? It's a trivia game. That stuff is just filler between the questions and having fun with whoever you're playing with.
    
    If on the other hand you're not playing with a full set of people then there'd be no point.
