Avault | The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom Review

The game is fun, silly and rewards your sense of pride and achievement in terms of thinking and planning. It's just like one of your granny's special pies; once you cut into the inside, you'll be in for some warming, yummy surprises. The nice thing is that the game is a decent alternative to some of the big guns out there. So if you fancy a break from squashing aliens or collecting spells, try it!

Now we are seeing even more additions being made."

I suppose like any game, if you are a fan, or if you've never played the game before, then it's worth it. The Darkness 2 is worth a replay for sure, but I'd really like the original game to be added to the list. The Darkness was one of my favorite experiences last gen.

Spec Ops was a pretty good game. May scoop that up cheap and play it again

XbladeTeddy2289d ago

Loved Spec Ops. Completed that 3 times. Had a brilliant narrative.

MadLad2289d ago

Re-install it on Steam for a quick run-through every year or so.

Still waiting for MGS HD Collection

Deep-throat2289d ago

Wait for something greater bro! MGS 1-4 remaster!

PUBG2289d ago

I would love to see MGS4 remastered. That game was another one of my top games from last gen.

TheColbertinator2289d ago

Yeah thats fine too. I just want Peace Walker on the X and/or Steam.

GamesMaster19822289d ago (Edited 2289d ago )

Sorry bro but no console ever will ever get to experience MGS4 apart for PS3. Yeah it’s a shame. All to do with how hard it was to make for the PS3 console,and is impossible to replicate apart from say remaking it from scratch

iNcRiMiNaTi2289d ago

That and Zoe HD collection would be cool too

Pantz2289d ago

YESS always wanted to get around to playing Darkness 2 and Spec Ops. Thanks Xbox!

Darkwatchman2289d ago

I hope Spec-Ops: The Line gets the 4K enhancement like some of the backwards compatible titles have. I love that game.

Profchaos2289d ago

I'd love to see midnight club LA and max Payne 3 get the BC treatment

Xbox 360 25-in-25: The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom

BT writes: We have covered a lot of XBLA gems over the course of our Xbox 360 25-in-25. Games like Braid and Limbo made Microsoft’s seventh generation home console the ultimate destination for indie games–especially puzzle platformers–for a number of years. Many of these titles eventually ended up on Steam and the PSN, but almost all of them started off as exclusives. A fair few of these projects flourished because of the direct support of Microsoft, whether through financial arrangements or just the availability of the XNA tool-set. The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom is a strange and wonderful exception.
