Microsoft has just revealed a new Xbox Live Arcade promotion, akin to the recently concluded Summer of Arcade.

The Xbox Live Arcade "Game Feast" begins September 29 and runs until October 20. Included are Twisted Pixel's latest title Comic Jumper, Team Meat's remake Super Meat Boy, Dark Energy Digital's Hydrophobia and Pinball FX 2.

Although Pinball FX 2 will be available as individual tables, players can import content from the original Pinball FX for free.

    Game Feast Promotion:
  • September 29 - Hydrophobia (1200 Microsoft Points)
  • October 6 - Comic Jumper: Adventures of Captain Smiley (1200 Microsoft Points)
  • October 13 - Pinball FX 2 (Tables purchased individually)
  • October 20 - Super Meat Boy (Pricing TBD)

Team Meat's upcoming remake of its popular flash title is also scheduled to appear on WiiWare and PC, but the XBLA version is due out first due to "contractual obligations." Hydrophobia is also a timed-exclusive to the Xbox Live Arcade.

Presumably, being attached to the "Game Feast" is similar to the agreement that saw Lara Croft and the Guardian of light become a timed-exclusive for Microsoft's downloadable platform during the Summer of Arcade.

Xav de Matos was previously a games journalist creating content at Shacknews.
