For those who don't know "Summer of Arcade" is a promotion Microsoft runs on the 360 every summer. A panel of judges sort through finished and unfinished arcade games and after a lengthy elimination period they are left with five top games. Here is an in-depth look at one of these games, Hydrophobia.

What a surprise, I was just searching for this game. I'm honestly quite surprised by the water physics and definitely looking forward to trying it soon.
loved this game/ still play it. The water and atmosphere where stellar and really fun to interact with.

After a rather decent amount of discounts on Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles last time out, the Deals With Gold sale is back once more to deliver a number of games at bargain-basement prices. Is there anything found in the Xbox Live Deals With Gold sale for 13th-19th November 2018 that takes your fancy?"
Escapist: Hey, I knew what I was doing. I can't claim ignorance, and I'll never claim innocence. Someone offered me a preview copy of Ninja Gaiden 3, so I took it, fully aware that it sucked. I played the demo at E3. I spoke to people whose opinions I trusted. I listened to my razor-sharp instincts and my not-so-sharp gut. Lo and behold, every single warning sign turned out to be dead on. Ninja Gaiden 3 is a travesty.
But I don't regret playing it for a moment, because I occasionally play bad videogames. On purpose. And so should you.
I can almost always find a reason to play any game. Too many people today just want to say negative things about games, but there is almost always something worthwhile in any game to me.
Warhammer 40k would be labelled as a crappy type game, i labelled it that ages ago when i saw afew screenshots for it and a trailer "looks like rubbish"
And it is, but i cant stop playing it, the voice acting is awesome http://www.youtube.com/watc... thats enough to warrant a playthrough on normal
Its pretty straight forward, run and shoot, hack/slash, its got a cool story/characters, big online community (never have any problems getting into some co-op)
If it wasnt released on PS+ i doubt i would of played it, im REALLY grateful i didnt miss it, because i would of done otherwise
I recommend it, if your looking for a pretty basic game with nothing to think about, just fun

I may pick this game up, it depends on how much it costs. I wanted Shadow Complex but I always felt like it was so expensive, 1200 points is a lot of money.
Kind of lack in any unknown information, but a good overveiw for those who don't know about it.
The title is very misleading. Hydrophobia isn't in the Summer of Arcade line-up
It depends how you compare the titles really!. Reading up on this i've found that it's comparable in length and quality near to a full release title!. But because of new Tech they can fit it under the size limit needed to be part of XBLA!...which is great news for this title and future ones. As start getting AAA quality stuff for a fraction of the price!...good times for game I feel!
I've watched some videos on this game and was rather impressed with it. Like studonaplug said, I'd be cool if more quality games started to get to the arcade. They cost way less money in that case.
@rampaged death, I thought it was part of the Summer of Arcade line-up?
