Rocketmen Gets Revenge on XBLA

As if a single Rocketmen game wasn’t enough for Capcom, we just got word that an expansion pack will be released Wednesday, May 14.  The game will cost 400 Microsoft points, and requires the original Rocketmen game to work, but you’ll get to continue with your characters on the new missions.

3 New Weapons
• Blobber: Shoots blobs of goo at enemies, does damage over time in the part of the ground that it covers.
• Beamer: Shoots lighting at enemies, does high intensity damage.
