BBFC - Image 1For those of us who enjoy the arcade gaming goodness that Xbox Live Arcade gives us (all for a nominal fee), here's some very good news: it seems that a compilation disc is in the works, as revealed by a submission of Microsoft to the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC).

Whether this is actually the same disc that comes bundled with the Microsoft Xbox 360 Arcade SKU, we're not really sure yet, but with the contents matching that of the SKU's list of bundled games, there's a good chance it could be.

Microsoft's submission to the BBFC also reveals a very exciting fact: Viva Pinata is included in the list of titles playable in the disc itself. Of course, while this can mean that it's not the actual full game, the last two items on the list seem to be for the trailers, seeing as they have timecodes - just the same as the welcome video at the very top. Until we do get our hands on the Xbox 360 Arcade SKU itself (or the disc itself), we'll just have to take solace in the fact that the other titles in the list are great games in their own right.

Here's the content list of the Xbox 360 Live Arcade Compilation disc in full:

  • 00:03:18:00 WELCOME VIDEO
  • n/a Pac-Man CE
  • n/a Boom Boom Rocket
  • n/a UNO
  • n/a Luxor 2
  • n/a Feeding Frenzy
  • n/a Zuma (Trial)
  • n/a Marble Blast Ultra (Trial)
  • n/a 3D Ultra Minigolf (Trial)
  • n/a Frogger (Trial)
  • n/a Soltrio Solitaire (Trial)
  • n/a Viva Pinata
  • n/a Surf' Up
  • 00:01:07:00 Viva Pinata
  • 00:01:34:00 Shrek the Third
Not only Viva Pinata, but Surf's Up also seems like a fully-playable title. Of course, we're wondering just how they could fit two full games (including the other titles) in just one disc, but it's definitely a great bonus as far as freebies are concerned.

I'm pretty sure Viva Pinata and Surf's Up will be demos. It would of been displayed on the box else wise.
