A bunch of tidbits have trickled their way to us here at XBLArcade over the course of the weekend (and this morning) so here's a quick and dirty rundown of the latest word in XBLA.

And remember, we here at XBLArcade love tips! Even if it does take us a little while to get around to them. Here we go down the rabbit hole.

#1: Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix appears on Major Nelson's top 10 list.

• Already discussed a bit in my top 10 post but I imagine this is a very good sign for those jonesin' for some hardcore puzzling action. It might not be this week's release, but maybe next week?

#2: Space Giraffe finally passes cert. (thanks dezombie)

• After much moaning (or is it bleeting?) about the "extraordinarily wearing" XBLA cert process by Minter and crew working on the game the game is finally done. Now all we need is a release date (and a desire to get psychadelic).

#3: War World and GEON: Emotions appear on the ESRB site. (thanks JDUDE11)

• War World comes in with a "fantasy violence" induced T rating and GEON gets the expected E rating. I would like to get my hopes up about a quick release of these games but by now we know that the ESRB rating means nothing in regards to release date. See Street Trace:NYC or any of the other games that have ratings.

#4: Duke Nukem 3D could come to XBLA. (thanks qwerty)

• George Broussard posted a comment at Shacknews with the following: "Truth be told, we've talked to Microsoft about it and have some people that would port it. Just waiting on the good word from Microsoft to continue." Any reason Microsoft wouldn't want Duke on XBLA?

#5: Garage Games could finally bring DLC to Marble Blast Ultra...

• ...or maybe an entirely new Marble Blast game. Brett Seyler of Garage Games teased Boldy29 with the following email responding to a request about MBU DLC: "Stay tunes (sic) Matt. I think you like what we've got coming." Could it be that Garage Games and Microsoft have finally worked out their differences? Or maybe knowing that all their fans might jump on the Switchball bandwagon until they release more content has broken the deadlock.

[Update]: I forgot one.

#6: Sensible World of Soccer gets reviewed in 360 magazine + bonus mini-review of Speedball 2. (thanks Kornicos)

• And all of that text was lovingly retyped for your reading pleasure at the Codemaster's forums by Kieran77. SWOS got a glowing 4/5 and Speedball 2 picked up a passable 3/5 while encouraging users to stick to the retro graphics. Interesting.
