I've completely missed out on Shadow Complex. I may take a look at it.

Cal6644664d ago

Same I really need to get round to playing Limbo too.

darthv724664d ago

is really good. I am stuck in it though. I think I will just forgo my current game and just start over.

Braid is a nice one as well.

Yi-Long4664d ago

... Super Meat Boy is THE must-have game on XBLA. It should absolutely have been on this list.

TrialsHD and ilomilo are great as well.

Abash4664d ago

I tried the Bastion today, and it's pretty good. But $15 is a little too steep for me to spend on it, but I will get it when it's on sale for Deal of the Week

Yi-Long4664d ago

... I hardly ever buy games for 1200 points.

800 points still qualifies as an impulse-buy for me, but when it's priced at 1200, I'd rather wait a while.

I think I only bought Battlefield 1943 and Shadow Complex for 1200 points. SMB was luckily only 800 points in it's first month. :)

Shadow complex is my favorite Download game. I have 4 of those 5 on this list.

bastion is really good too. Bastion is really worth the 15$, the game is really long and has challenges and New game + to add even more value. Everything about that game it top quality, and it gets better and better as the game goes on I thought.

Im loving From Dust At the moment

omi25p4663d ago

never played black at white. There is a trial available u should definetly try it, i give it a 9/10

bangoskank4664d ago

It looks brilliant but is getting a some mixed reviews.
Critics are saying the AI isn't all that great. Your thoughts?

agentxk4664d ago

I really think that Castlevania Harmony of Despair should have been on this list. I sunk over 350 hours into that game

OC_MurphysLaw4664d ago

XBLA has had a number of good games... I own most of that list save for costume quest. I would have put Trenched up there as well.

CrescentFang4664d ago

Aren't most of these indie games? I think lists should be more specific and especially since "top 5 [insert whatever]" has been used many times. I would like someone to spice up these top whatever. It would be interesting haha

Going digital with 360 and PS3 - Xbox Live Arcade vs. PlayStation Store

"We may take digital downloads on console for granted nowadays but let's go back to when they became popularised and decide which platform offered the superior service." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5078d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905078d ago (Edited 5078d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5078d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5078d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495078d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5077d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5078d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
