Title: I want to buy some xbla games
Post by: The Sceneman on August 20, 2008, 02:45:52 AM: which ones should I get?

I mean its my secret fantasy to be demi so Im thinking about getting Bionic Commando and trying to 200/200 it... Im up for some sort of hardcore challenge and Im keen for a 2d platformer... but Braid looks good too. Is Bionic Commando harder than N+? What other good shyt has come out recently?

Infinite Continues, saves your progress if you get a new item or beat a level - you only get 3 lives before you "fail" a mission and are kicked out back to the world map

Title: Re: I want to buy some xbla games
Post by: Joe Molotov on August 20, 2008, 03:02:35 AM: Rez HD and Pac-Man Championship Edition are my two favorite XBLA games. Galaga Legions is made by the Pac-Man CE team, I bet it's going to be awesome too.

Post by: The Sceneman on August 20, 2008, 03:03:24 AM: Ive got Rez :-*

Post by: MrAngryFace on August 20, 2008, 03:03:48 AM: its out in 4 minutes rite?!
Title: Re: I want to buy some xbla games
Post by: demi on August 20, 2008, 03:03:58 AM: * No release for Duke, my guess is this year

* Galaga impressions have been kind of leery... some comparing it more to a "puzzler" than an actual shooter, so I'm going to take the demo approach, but I'm not really clicking with it. Castle Crashers is a lock, though.

* Marble Blast Ultra is sweet

Marble Blast Ultra is the shit. This and Space Giraffe are the only xbla games I don't regret buying. (Hexic was free)
