Opinion: Overlooked Console Downloadable Games Of 2009

More than 250 downloadable games were released for consoles in 2009. Some became deserved hits, racking up huge sales figures and becoming pervasive in gaming circles, but with so many titles, it's inevitable that a few gems would fall through the cracks.

Ryan Langley, editor of console download-focused Gamasutra sister site GamerBytes, has rounded up five Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network games that should have found their audience, but for whatever reason -- be it confused release schedules, price point bungling, or lack of gamer awareness -- have languished in relative obscurity. (Axel & Pixel, Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 Commander's Challenge, Death Tank, Droplitz, Gyromancer, Lode Runner, Mushroom Wars, PC, PS3, Rocket Riot, Xbox 360)
