LOS ANGELES, Jan. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Get out your dancing shoes as Sierra Online, a division of Vivendi Games, kicks off an unusual dance contest with the release of Boogie Bunnies(TM) on Xbox LIVE(R) Arcade for the Xbox 360(R) video game and entertainment system from Microsoft. The next evolution in match-three puzzle games, Boogie Bunnies revolutionizes this popular genre with exceptional 3D graphics developed to maximize the Xbox LIVE Arcade capabilities. The character rich Boogie Bunnies game follows a mob of zany rabbits as they shake their tails through exotic destinations including the Artic and Amazon all the way to the ultimate dance off in Hollywood, Calif.

"Boogie Bunnies delivers humorous play for gamers of all ages," said Nicole Perez, vice president of marketing, Sierra Online. "This exciting match-three puzzler with a twist is sure to get players jumping onto Xbox Live Arcade to download the game!"

In the Boogie Bunnies game, players match the colorful bunnies from three different sides -- left, right and bottom -- to save them from marching off of the screen and into dangerous pitfalls. Bunny busters can score chain combinations, triggering unexpected, wacky dance moves and amusing chants. Players can join the party online or offline in two-player cooperative or competitive mode for the whole family to enjoy. The three game modes -- classic, arcade and endless -- allow players to enjoy the game at their own pace.

The Boogie Bunnies game is rated E for everyone and is available on Xbox LIVE(R) Marketplace for the Xbox 360(R) video game and entertainment system from Microsoft for 800 Microsoft points. For more information visit http://www.boogiebunnies.com.
