Well Major Nelson just updated a list of what's to come for the rest of July on XBLA and we're here to inform you of what's to come.
The snow has melted, the shorts and t-shirts are back out, and that means summer is finally here. Warm weather usually means more time to go out, but for some of us that aren't as UV friendly or are creatures of the night, it just means we finally get to put the A/C back in the window so our consoles don't become molten hot. Major Nelson today announced the Summer of Arcade's line up for 2011.
The sequel to 2008's XBLA hit The Dishwasher: Dead Samurai is one of the most satisfying games I've ever played. The original was formally the winner of the Microsoft's Dream-Build-Play XNA competition which boasted him $10,000 in prize money. It comes as no surprise that being the cult classic hit that it was, a sequel would be imminent. It's clean yet messy, it's sadistic yet beautiful and all in all a hell of alot of fun to play.

Hidden amongst humanity’s survivors, an elite unit of specially trained ninja known as Moondivers has been lying in wait for orders to reclaim the planet. Today, those orders arrived. Today, the battle to retake Earth begins.
Before I begin I just want to mention that I've seen my fare share of cuteness in games but this is by far the most adorable game I've ever played. While you might think that I'm making this sound like a bad thing, it only adds to its charm and great structure that the game brings to life. iloMilo is a puzzle game that utilizes 3D aspects, all into a stylized package.
Cops and Robbers, Cowboys and Indians, whatever you may call it, it's still team versus team. Breach is definitely one of those games where team cooperation, tactics and who's got the bigger gun matters. Read our review of Breach after the jump.
