Without playing this or Marble Blast Ultra, I will make an assumption that this is a similar game. I could be completely wrong on that fact but they both seem to have 3d boards and marbles :-) Lots of my friends loved Marble Blast Ultra - so for the sake of Switchball I hope that my assumption is right, and it will most likely end up being a pretty big success - even so it looks like an interesting arcade game to at least try the demo. Originally I posted about this game about a month ago - it is just one of the very large number of arcades Sierra Games has in store for us. The following description comes direct from the press release:
In “Switchball,” players conquer breathtakingly beautiful labyrinthine mazes as they manipulate the unique physical properties of an ever-changeable ball to solve clever puzzles. Morph into the Metalball and ram objects out of your way, charge the Powerball to dash up ramps and jump over obstacles, switch to the Airball to float over physics based death traps or use the Marbleball for speedy rolling around action. Created by Sierra Online, “Switchball” empowers players to harness the laws of physics and triumphantly roll their way through five elegantly detailed 3D environments or they can join friends in 2 player co-op or 8 player competitive racing fun through Xbox LIVE. The game will be available worldwide (with the exception of Korea) for 800 Microsoft Points and is rated E.
