I don't know what kind of strange world we live in now but this Wednesday we'll be seeing our third week in a row of double-releases on the Xbox Live Arcade in the form of Catan and a Centipede/Millipede two-in-one. Centipede/Millipede is Yet Another Arcade Port (YAAP) but Catan is something to get excited about — it's an adaptation of the super-popular boardgame Settlers of Catan and has online multiplayer for up to four players.
