According to VentureBeat, a group of hackers have made public a number of unreleased games that are soon to be released on the Xbox Live Arcade. It would seem that thumbnails were created for the games to get them ready for the release, before any news was made public about the games actually coming out.

The Cover art photos revealed the following huge photo wall of games that we can start looking forward to. These were posted on Gifted Apollo.

There are the usual comments surrounding this massive Gaming News story that Microsoft actually did this on purpose as an advertising technique, but they have never done it before when it comes to Arcade releases, and having the thumbnails created before the game releases makes sense, but the images should clearly have been more hidden to avoid leaking issues such as this one.

GamesBeat (Part of VentureBeat) has confirmed that the Cover photos that were found by the hackers are in fact legit, so we don’t have to worry about this all being a rumour and the images not being the real ones. They are the real deal, so enjoy them and see if there are any good titles that take your fancy. There is quite a few big names in the list, such as Double Dragon II and Star Wars Fire Assault.
