Default Anniversary for xbox360

Hi Folks!

I have just completed Legends on xbox360 and I am totally blown away what an amazing game!

There is probably other people asked this but had a quick look and could not see the answer but does anyone know when anniversary will be released for xbox360?

I am dying to play it and so dissapointed that I have completed legends - i wish there were another 100 levels lol!

Anyone who can tell me the the release date of anniversary on xbox360 I promise I will name my first child after them!

Cheers
David

Supposed to be Septemeber. Do you not have a PC that could handle the game? If you liked Legend you should love Anniversary!

It's beautiful on a PC.

I have Legend for both PC and 360 and feel that the PC version is much better looking. I do not have HDTV though, so....

Does your TV not have an input for your computer? Problem solved! Even the Xbox 360 pad works with the game and the default controls are the same setup as Legend on Xbox 360.

You can use the xbox 360 pad with your pc running windows xp or vista. If the pad is wired it is simple a case of plugging it into a spare usb slot. If it is wireless you will need a special xbox wireless receiver for you pc which is cheap, plug that into your pc, confiqure it and voila: your xbox pad works with your pc!

the 360 controller is USB. I am using one right now. If you have the wireless 360 controller, they have wireless adaptors for the PC as well.

Yeah, but only as DOWNLOAD from X-Box Live Marketplace. It won't be released as DVD-Rom on the 360. Very disappointing for some people. And when i see the screenshots i have to say that they look the same as on the PlayStation 2. No difference to me.

It will be re-released bundled with Legend later, most likely after the download version is out. Not sure if it will be released seperately.

Nope.... It only says this at the end:

__________________________________________________________________
In order to access Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Anniversary downloadable episodic content for Xbox 360, players will require a Lara Croft Tomb Raider Legend disc. The episodes will cost 2400 Microsoft points for all four episodes, and will be released in two separate launches. Episodes 1 & 2 will be released in September and episodes 3 & 4 will follow shortly afterwards. The Croft Manor level will be free to download with both sets of episodes. Additional Tomb Raider Anniversary downloadable content will also become available for purchase on Marketplace to support the launch of Tomb Raider Episodic such as picture packs and theme packs.

__________________________________________________________________

So you need also the Legend disc if you want to download it.
There is nothing about that Anniversary will be released on disc.
It's not even officially confirmed by Eidos on tombraider.com.

I thought I read somewhere also that it would be released on disc at a later date after the d/l. Though I wonder how much memory four episodes will take up on the HD, some people might have to go out and buy that bigger HD if they have alot of content on the standard HD as it is.

This is why I'm hoping for a disk version, Yes I have it for the pc, and it was fUN, I'll gladly get it for the 360 too.
