New Xbox Live Arcade Releases for August 24, 2011

Today we have an interesting mix of games releasing on XBLA with three titles on Xbox including a Kinect title, and none so far on Windows Phone 7.  Xbox is also rolling out some pretty sweet deals on Deal of the Week for Gold Members, including one they they keep slashing the price on just to see some movement:

Hundreds of totally wacky chain reactions are just waiting to be created! Experience the latest chapter in the international, multi award-winning Crazy Machines series: “Elements”. This time with next gen visuals! Put your grey matter to the test by carrying out zany experiments. Build crazy machines from everyday objects and bizarre components. Use the elements (fire, water and wind) to discover all the fantastic possibilities available to you! Use the cloud machine and generate lightning, tornadoes and rain to complete your chain reactions; real physics will simultaneously be your best ally and your toughest enemy. 100 puzzles will get your brain buzzing, and the in-built editor and lots of new level packs will provide the puzzle fodder. Play in Challenge mode and find out who can make the coolest machine out of you and your friends. Get Crazy Machines Elements and become a nutty professor! Your lab awaits you...
The Hole In The Wall game brings all the wild and crazy fun of the international TV phenomenon straight to your Xbox 360 Kinect to play solo or with friends. You become a human puzzle piece as you contort to fit through wacky shapes that are cut out into themed walls hurtling towards you. Try to pass your body through the wall to boost your score, or you’ll be pushed straight into the water below! Play through different “show” levels in single or multi player modes (up to 4 competitors), or see if you can handle the challenge of “survival” mode as you attack wall after wall until you drop!
Street Fighter III: Third Strike Online Edition, one of the most revered, deep, and sophisticated fighting games of all time, now takes the battle online. Fighting game fans new and old owe it to themselves to experience this mastery of 2D fighting. Throw down with enhanced HD-filtered graphics, arcade-perfect gameplay, GGPO seamless multiplayer, YouTube™ replay sharing, new art, and more. It’s time you realized it’s the third strike that counts. • GGPO-Enabled Online Play: SFIII will feature pixel-perfect arcade play online, with a matching system and leaderboards. • Unchanged Arcade Gameplay: Utmost care was taken to maintain an arcade perfect experience and not to change the deep gameplay system. • Upgraded Visuals: Players can customize their viewing experience with new art, UI, and hand-tuned HD Filtering options. • YouTube™ Replay Sharing: Players will be able to watch local and global match replays in-game, and upload replays directly to YouTube™ to share with the rest of the world.

Let’s roll! Guide a cute little monkey encased in a transparent ball to victory by tilting and rolling him through a variety of slopes and turns. You must navigate a large variety of obstacle courses to reach goal lines within set time limits. Collect as many bananas as you can along the way and you'll be able to increase your remaining lives. Play through five worlds and 110 stages, designed to be fun for both first-time players and long-time Super Monkey Ball fans. Enjoy rich 3D graphics with an easy-to-master control system that utilizes the accelerometer inside your device. Insanely fun and addicting!
