A couple of things: It says 12 all new player avatars coming to this game, so no guarantee we can use the MS avatars. Doesn't mention any online multiplay, just party play but could indicate local. Next, it is not 360 exclusive, it is now PS3 and Wii as well. And lastly, it is made by Artificial Mind & Movement (Creators of WET). We might have a good game here, could go either way. I am glad MS lost the rights to it.
