Playbrains has made me feel really old with the announcement that their debut console title, Madballs in Babo: Invasion, will be available on the Xbox LIVE Arcade this Summer, although pricing has not yet been specified.

In a blast from the past, the game will feature the recently re-released Madballs characters, Oculus Orbus and Horn Head, from the popular 1980's toys. MiBI is an arena based 3D shooter where players are able to design their own combat maps almost instantaneously by placing a combination of map tiles to create a never before seen map before gameplay starts.

Madballs in Babo: Invasion has a number of features and game modes such as 4 player online co-op along with, never-before-seen in an Xbox LIVE Arcade title, being able to incorporate your Xbox LIVE Avatar into multiplayer combat via the 'Avatar Attack' mode.
