The New York Times is reporting that later today Microsoft will announce a new
contest that will give developers a chance to win $10,000 and a spot on Xbox
Live Arcade. Here's a clip:

Reaching out to millions of aspiring game developers around the world, Microsoft
plans today to announce a contest that will award $10,000 and the opportunity to
entice millions of eyeballs to the next great digital diversion for the
company’s Xbox 360.

In addition to the game console’s snazzy graphics, the Xbox Live online
service has been the most important component of the Xbox 360’s success since
its debut in 2005. And perhaps the most popular aspect of Xbox Live has been the
service’s arcade component, which allows users to download and play smaller,
relatively simpler games like Uno and Geometry Wars that usually cost less than
$10. (By contrast, top-end games can sell in stores for around $60.)

No official announcement yet from Microsoft, but I'll post a link here when the
contest goes live. Stay tuned...
