Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition

Written Friday, July 06, 2012 By Richard Walker

Not satisfied with appearing on the Xbox Live Arcade several times already, Frogger AKA 'Highway Crossing Frog' is back for more today, with Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition offering up another dose of hopping across dangerous roads, avoiding cars and jumping between moving logs and stuff.

Blacklight developer Zombie Studios is behind the latest iteration of Frogger, which features a host of traditional game modes alongside a variety of character skins, including sprites from Konami's old-skool back catologue, like Castlevania and Contra.

Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition hits XBLA on July 10th for an as yet unspecified price. No doubt we'll have the price tag with the next XBLA update. today for 800 Microsoft Points.

[Update] Turns out that Frogger: Hyper Arcade Edition is actually out today in North America and Europe. You can snap it up now for 800 Microsoft Points. Add the full game or the trial version to your download queue here.

	For the love of god not again!!! I wanna play a prequel that explains how and why the fuck that frog left his home to cross the street in the first place lol. Classics like this will never have to explain anything but this and joust frustrate me so much I feel like I need an answer of some sort.
