BT writes: While it may seem strange to highlight Super Meat Boy on a list of Xbox games, given the rather big fallout between Team Meat and Microsoft, it is still very much a must-have game for your Xbox 360. Not only is the Xbox 360 the only video game console that has the ridiculously fun, bloody platformer (as well as the best controller for the experience), but it is one of the games that helped make the XBLA service become a force to be reckoned with. While games like Castle Crashers helped give XBLA some early games for everyone to play, Super Meat Boy was a game-changer when it came out and still holds up as an excellent platformer to this day.
Microsoft is a little slow this month when it comes to announcing the Games with Gold lineup for June 2022. This has led to the lineup leaking ahead of the announcement.
Super Meat Boy was a Games with Gold title back in 2016..It's leftover Meat from 2016
I actually really enjoyed Aven Colony when it was on Gamepass. I got it for free from Epic Store a few months back.
I’ll give it another go.
"Now that we finally have a sequel to the iconic super-difficult indie platformer, let's examine both and see which one's the meat to beat." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Vote for either Super Meat Boy or Super Meat Boy Forever at the bottom of the article! 🎮😄
The last decade wasn't the Golden Age of platformers, that's for sure, but there were still many great games. Check out Wccftech's shortlist!
They put Celeste in the honorable mentions. Such a shame, this game is premium in platforming. Rayman is also def a 10/10 platformer.
