That is a very good selection of XBLA games right there.

I might just get Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2. I almost did when it was in a Deal of the Week.

And I highly recommend both Alien Hominid HD and Castle Crashers (the second more so, and you unlock the alien in CC if you have AH HD). They are both great games.

N+ and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night are both really good as well.

The four I mentioned are totally worth their respective M$ Space Buck prices there.

Also, here is the deal of the week for the week of E3:

June 14th: "Summer '09 Redux"

-Marvel vs Capcom 2 - 560 Microsoft Points

-Shadow Complex - 560 Microsoft Points

-Splosion Man - 400 Microsoft Points

-TMNT: Turtles in Time Re-Shelled - 400 Microsoft Points

-Trials HD - 560 Microsoft Points

from http://360junkies.co...p=8873#post8873

The rest will apparently drop in price from June 16 to the 22nd, called the "E3 Inventory Blowout" lol. They have to get rid of that surplus digital content somehow!

I urge anyone who likes fighting games to get Marvel vs. Capcom 2, the game is awesome and totally worth 560 MS points, and it would be awesome to have more people to play it with.

I haven't played shadow complex... anyone recommend that?

For 560 points ($7), yes I would recommend it. If you're a fan of Metroid style gameplay, a sidescrolling shooter with hidden collectibles, you'd probably like it. And the graphics are some of the best you'll see in an XBLA game.

Alright... I'll take your word on it. Be sure to remind me to get it later since I really should be getting ready for work right about now.

It is available right now if you want to start the download so it will download in the background (with the console off) and be done when you get home. Get MvC2 as well! lol

Shadow Complex is awesome. I played the crap out of it for quite a while. There are quite a few games there I wouldn't mind getting. I've always wanted to try Castlevania. 400 points might just about do it for me.

If you enjoyed Shadow Complex so much you will almost certainly enjoy Castlevania, as it has the same Metroid style gameplay. I'm pretty sure the game is bigger, too.
