I would like to play some Gripshift online, but also can never find a game.
This is a major problem with the arcade, top quality games just have no online play at all after a few weeks.
Here is an idea I had which I posted elsewhere

As
it stands these are completely desolate after 1-2 weeks and it is
impossible to get a game online (except with online games like Tetris,
SWOS, Worms etc). However, a steady flow of people are buying these
games still (even if its only ~10 a week) who could be interested in
the online play if it was used.
Well I wondered if, when you go
on your 360 whether you could go on each arcade game you would be
interested in playing online and select "interested" and then go off
and play something else, then if a second person comes a long the game
could try and connect them together. You could select "interested" on
several arcade games and then wait and hopefully get a game without
loitering in empty lobbies.
Then you could get a "so and so wants to play Gripshift with you" type pop up like when a friend sends you a play request.
I am sure there is a good reason why
this would not work but I reckon it would be great and could really
revitalise the arcade online which would be a great thing in my opinion.
