Overview
Looks Like Lumines Lumines Live! was
Q Entertainment's first game on
Xbox Live Arcade being released in October 2006. The XBLA size limit at the time hampered the Base Pack's content and it was heavily criticized for being overpriced at 1200 Microsoft Points (fifteen dollars). It was later dropped to 800 Microsoft Points (ten dollars) being available as part of the Arcade Hits program. The Base Pack offered about twenty skins from all the modes (Base, vs. CPU, Puzzle, and Time Attack) provided. The game had long legs of numerous DLC in the upcoming months after it launched of more skins and if all of them were bought, the game could take up about a GB in hard drive space. It retained the
Lumines formula well of addicting gameplay and Q's signature additions of music being controlled within the game. It was promised that licensed songs like Madonna's "Sorry" (Her music video was shown when the game was first announced) and some songs from
Lumines II would make it to this XBLA version, but Q never delivered on that end.Another mode in the game is the Skin Edit mode, where it is like a customized playlist of mixing skins of your preference to play 40 levels. Lumines Live! is also sold as a retail release called
Qubed along with
Rez HD and
Every Extend Extra Extreme.
