Ahh. I've heard of this. A friend of mind is one of the developers for Retro/Grade and I remember hearing about this game being impressive at IGF.
I haven't looked into this game that much but so far it does look like an interesting pickup.

This game actually looks sorta neat and has very good visuals for an indie title. The story and world background seems to be fairly fresh too, it sort of reminds me of older sci fi or fantasy pulp novels.

I have 3 words to describe this:
WOW.WOW.WOW.
Nice pick up, Atlus. This game just shot up to one of my most anticipated games of next year. Only questions is, how did u pull this one off??? I thought this was a PC only title.

Wow. WTH? Looks good for an indie game, I guess. Will I pick it up? Probably not.

They were looking at doing a XBLA/PSN release I think...I figured it would have been self published though.
Definitely looking forward to this!

We get this instead of Person 3 Portable and/or SMT: Strange Journey… why? And how can you publish a game that can only be bought online? What is there to publish? And why are you showing screenshots from the PC version if this is for XBL? So many questions…

We don't do any games 'instead of' any other games. Each game is evaluated on its own merits and acquired individually, it's not an either/or choice.

It happens pretty often. There are many publishers of Xbox LIVE Arcade games.

Because while the XBLA version is coming along, it's not quite in a state where we're ready to take screenshots yet. Xbox screenshots will be shown in due time, never fear!

I was kind of impressed by what I saw in the gameplay trailer I watched, but hopefully the additions to the game will improve my thoughts. I'm going to look into it more, and the multi-player aspect seems good, but I'm not sure how happy I'll be to pick this one up.
To those who played the PC game, how would you draw comparisons gameplay wise between this and Breakdown on the Xbox? Better? Worse?
EDIT: Fixed wording.

Its combat mechanics are better than Breakdown but still not that great in general, but it does succeed in being visceral (i.e., strong blows really mess with your vision, like they would in real life). The game world in Zeno Clash is without a doubt the most original one of this generation. It's worth playing because of that.

This game looks a bit too surreal for my tastes to be honest. I have yet to play it so I'm not saying it is bad, but I just don't see myself buying this.

I was watching some of the Zeno Clash video clips and I'm impressed. Is there any word on how big the download size will be?
