Xbox Gaming in South Africa

Lima Sky, the two man team behind the ultra-popular mobile title Doodle Jump, has confirmed that the tilt-controlled platformer will be making its way to the Xbox LIVE Arcade, marking the Pušenjak brothers' first outing on Microsoft's online platform.

You're probably wondering right about now how you're meant to control Doodle the Doodler with an Xbox controller? Simple, by sidestepping the controller altogether. Doodle Jump will make use of the Kinect motion sensor to guide your four-legged friend through the game.

"After such incredible first two years, it is safe to say Doodle Jump has exceeded even our wildest imaginations," says Igor Pusenjak, founder of Lima Sky.  "We are looking forward to bringing even more amazing content to millions of Doodle Jump fans around the world."

There has been no mention of a release date or price, but considering gamers have been snapping up Doodle Jump for a paltry $0.99 on mobile platforms (surpassing 10 million paid downloads since its release), expect it to cost something like ten times that when it hits the XBLA. Hey, the boys over at Microsoft need their little commission too, don't forget.
