Xbox Live arcade will see its library expanding by two titles when "Commanders: Attack of the Genos" and "Discs of Tron" are released tomorrow. The two games should be available for 800 Microsoft points each ($10) and will be available at 1:00am PST. Also, Discs of Tron will feature a downloadable content pack that will be available at launch. This content will consist of a theme and gamer pic pack for 400 Microsoft points.

From the press release:

"Commanders: Attack of the Genos” is a fast-paced turn-based strategy game featuring an art deco look and tongue-in-cheek storyline. The game requires players to devise a masterful tactical battle strategy to both cripple the enemy and defend their territory from genos, a genetically modified super race. Fight alongside a powerful Commander, which serves as a hero unit, in the 15-mission campaign with an arsenal of weapons including missile launchers, bombers and infantry in this turn-based strategy game."

In “Discs of Tron,” gamers play as Tron in an attempt to defeat the evil Sark in an electronic battleground, using the iconic disc weapon. Survive 12 levels of Sark’s attacks in the single-player campaign or grab a friend and face off in multiplayer mode over Xbox LIVE to discover the true disc champion."
