Rebecca of Spawn Kill writes, "Faery: Legends of Avalon is a rather ambitious little downloadable title. The graphics are stellar, the customization for your avatar is excellent, and the amount of gameplay you get for your $15 is impressive. Although it falls short in certain areas (the lack of voice acting really hurts the overall presentation, for example), and the gameplay can get a bit repetitive, in general these are things I can excuse considering all this title does get right. If you’re a fan of turn-based, fantasy RPGs, you could do far worse with your $15. While it might not be the most ground-breaking little game, you’ll certainly get your money’s worth."
According to Microsoft’s Major Nelson latest tweet, the latest round of backwards compatible games are here. If you own any of the following titles (or purchase them), you will be able to download them now:
Deus Ex: Human Revolution — Director’s Cut
Final Fight: Double Impact
Faery: Legends of Avalon
Frogger 2
Puzzlegeddon
Backwards compatibility is starting to blow up. I bet publishers are seeing increased sales from older titles.
lame..no Black Ops 1
Deus Ex HR was always on there this is just the Directors Cut.
Anyone underwhelmed about BC titles lately have to understand that MS is probably waiting for BC blowout during their E3 press conference. Black Ops, Bioshock and other big titles have already been confirmed for BC at some point. Read Dead and other long rumored. I'll be very surprised if we don't see many of the most requested BC games announced at E3.
It has just been announce that this week’s Steam Publisher Week-End is dedicated to the Focus Home Interactive game catalog. From today until Monday the 13th, you can enjoy amazing discounts on Focus’ bestselling titles, as well as on their fresh new releases such like Sherlock Holmes Crimes and Punishments, Styx Master of Shadows!
Despite the game’s attractive look, its utter lack of originality is soon wholly apparent. Pass on this particular fairy tale and you’ll exponentially improve your odds of living happily ever after.
I'd literally heard nothing of this one before it popped up on the dashboard. Should download the demo and give it a run.
That title is so brutal...
Wow that’s awesome. It’s rare that a $15 game on XBL/PSN is deemed worth it’s buck! I did love the customization choices I had in the demo when I tried it briefly. Really pretty and interesting styles.
Now this is something I could see myself spending the cash on. Perhaps a demo DL is in order.
I had not heard of the title until it popped up as well. I'll have to give it a shot and see if I like it.
