The first episode of Alien Breed Evolution’s up on XBL now, but someone’s stuck it up for 1200MSP instead of the advertised 800.

Developer Team17 just put out a press release saying the price is going to altered “as soon as possible” and “this is an error outside our immediate control.”

Sounds like someone’s not very happy. Buy it as soon as it says 800, innit.

CVG’s posted up some new shots of Alien Breed Evolution.

The T17 reboot’s out on Wednesday for 800MSP. May as well, innit.

Alien Breed Evolution will release for 360 on December 16, Team17 said today.

It’ll cost 800 MSP. Nice and light for you, there.

The top-down shooter’s got co-op and tons of story. Do your bit: buy it.

The PSN and Steam versions will follow next year. Remember that this is the first of three episodes, innit (thanks, Blerk).

Team 17 boss Martyn Brown’s told VG247 that downloadable actioner Alien Breed Evolution should appeal to Xbox 360 fans’ traditional loves in Halo and Gears of War.

The UK studio manager said the title, the first of a trilogy that’s cost $2.5 million to develop so far, could replicate the company’s significant online console success with Worms.

“It’s a very different game,” he said. “What Worms has allowed us to do is make Evolution in the first place. To be able to do that and remind people where we’re from has been a fantastic opportunity.

“I’d like to think it’s going to appeal to the Gears of War crowd, the Halo crowd, and all the rest of it.

“It’s a very casual, pick-up-and-play title, but it’s shit-hot, really.”

Brown said the game was a significant venture for the developer.

“It’s a big risk for us. We’ve piled a lot of cash into it, but we’ve made a game that we believe in [for the] first time in a few years.”

There’s a seven-minute video interview with Martyn after the break, shot at Develop in Brighton yesterday. You can see first footage of the game – the first part of which releases later this year as a timed 360 exclusive before heading to PS3 and PC – here.

There’s a five-minute, off-screen movie of Team 17′s Alien Breed Evolution after the break. We saw the frankly awesome-looking shooter today at Develop in Brighton.

The detail really doesn’t come over in this video, but it’s a joy to behold in the flesh. You’ll get a good idea of what’s going on in the footage.

Team17 boss Martyn Brown’s playing here. The game’s out later this year, on XBLA first, with a PSN version to follow.

We interviewed Martyn on camera, so we’ll get that up for you later on.

According to Gamespot, Team17′s Worms 2: Armageddon has been given a July 1 release date for XBLA.

It’ll set you back $10.

The first XBLA game is still one of the top five performers on the service, the sequel being “initially exclusive to Xbox Live Arcade.”

More through there.

Team17 put out three videos of Worms 2 Armageddon in action this morning – see them here, here and here.

The footage shows a magnet repelling an airstrike, a worm panicking and the use of fire in the game.

It’s out this summer for XBLA. Team17′s Facebook page is here.

Al Lowe, the original creator of Leisure Suit Larry, says that the latest addition to the franchise is a “disaster”.

Lowe wrote on his blog that he was not consulted during the development process for Leisure Suit Larry : Box Office Bust, and furthermore, is happy that he never received a review copy of the game.

“All I know about [Box Office Bust] is what I’ve read online. VU (and later Activision, Team17 and Codemasters) did not consult me nor discuss anything about this game with me. In fact, they’ve expressed no interest in me whatsoever,” he wrote.

“For a while, I hoped that they would remember to send me a review copy. Now that the reviews are in, it’s just as well that they didn’t!

“Thank you, VU Games, for keeping me completely away from this latest disaster!“

The game’s MetaCritic rating is 28 percent.
