This week's Live Arcade game was Geon: Emotions, where you play the role of a heroic die who must...roll around a grid?

Love it? Hate it? Does it make you angry? Does it calm you down? Feel the energy of powerful emotions as you compete amongst your opponents to master the unique sport of Geon: Emotions. What's your strategy going to be? Will you choose to spread fear among the other players, or unleash a wave of bliss over them with the aim of subverting their cause? Play to your emotional strengths. Allow your dark side to dominate, or win through speed, courage, and style. You can be the master of Geon, but you must learn to use your emotions to your advantage.

* A different game: Geon: Emotions is something different, a fast-paced abstract sports game that lets you explore your emotions as you compete against opponents.
* Next-gen graphics: The razor sharp visuals are accompanied by a pulse-pounding soundtrack.
* Game modes: Perfect your skills in a head-to-head duel or try the time attack to win medals and unlock mini-games. Then, go multiplayer on Xbox LIVE with up to four players and let it all hang out on the emotional battlefield.

The demo reminded me too much of that terrible Giraffe game to keep me interested. What's with all the technicolor weirdness on the Live Arcade lately?
