Alien Hominid Hits Xbox

The spunky yellow alien guy will make it to Xbox after all -- in one part of the world, at least. ZOO Digital Publishing announced today it will publish Alien Hominid for the Xbox and PlayStation 2 in Europe.

Originally a popular online Flash-based 2D game, developer Behemoth's Alien Hominid made his North American console debut late last year on the PlayStation 2 and GameCube. While the title was hardly going to compete with the likes of GTA or Metroid, we admit we're fond of the little guy.

European gamers will have their chance at wacky Alien mayhem in May 2005. Xbox gamers in the States, sadly, will have to remain without.
