Posted - Jun 21 2010 : 6:07:50 PM I need a new XBLA game or two and was looking for a few ideas.
I like a good challenge so difficultly isn't much of a issue, but I don't want something thats going to make me pull my hair out for a achievement (See Trials HD Marathon Achievement, which I WILL earn someday).
No Splosion Man (Great game), only because of the co-op achievements (I don't have anyone that could help me Local, so for that reason alone its a NO).
So anything thats fun and has obtainable achievements.
Hows The Maw? I heard it was good.
I DON'T want any easy 200/200 games that take minutes to complete, I want a game not just achievements. |

Posted - Jun 25 2010 : 11:19:36 AM The Maw was a fun little game. I have played through it about 4 times now. Peggle is awesome. I saw some vids of it and thought to myself, "People are addicted to this?" Now I can't put it down. Defense Grid is good, Puzzle Quest can easily suck up hours. |

Posted - Jun 23 2010 : 05:28:25 AM If you like tower defense, Defense Grid is as good as that will get (the demo doesn't really do the complexity of the game justice). If you're looking for a very new spin on that genre, I spent a lot of time playing Toy Soldiers, eventually 100% that after putting in a lot of work. |

I also purchased Zombie Apocalypse after playing the demo (it still might be 400 points yet today). I haven't played the full version yet, but the demo was fun.
Peggle will take you a loooooong time - well worth the money!
I picked up Zombie Apocalypse on Saturday, great game for 400 points, 800 points I'm not so sure about.

Posted - Jun 22 2010 : 1:52:53 PM I have heard nothing but good things about Snoopy Flying Aces. There's a Quick Look on GiantBomb.com that looked good. |

Posted - Jun 22 2010 : 1:28:49 PM Looks like I have a few trials to download tonight, keep them coming.
Anyone tried Snoopys Flying Ace? it looked fun. |

Posted - Jun 22 2010 : 12:02:55 PM The Maw does take a little while to complete, I thought it was a very quick 250/250, which it is not. Definitely on the easy side. Have you tried Castlevania: Symphony of the Night? That's a good one.
Peggle is also really addictive, despite being really simple. Puzzle Quest is fun, I really need to play it more. Crystal Defenders is one I like, and it can be either an easy completion or a hard one, depending if you follow guides or not.
Oh! Bionic Commando Re-Armed! It's TOUGH! |

Posted - Jun 22 2010 : 11:12:31 AM I already have Shadow Complex (bought it the day it came out, loved it), still looking for ideas. I might give The Maw a try later even tho the achievements do look pretty easy, will it at least take a few hours to complete? |

Posted - Jun 22 2010 : 09:46:59 AM Shadow Complex for sure. I would also recommend Defense Grid, and The Maw is great too |

Posted - Jun 22 2010 : 06:57:05 AM Shadow Complex sounds like your cup of tea. Hopefully you bought it on sale last week? |

I picked up Kingdom for Keflings on sale for 400 points, its a resource game and I've been having fun with that one. It's a good going to bed game.
I liked Keflings, but then, all of the sudden, you're done.
Let me know if you need a few banners. |

Posted - Jun 21 2010 : 10:05:34 PM Shadow Complex is fantastic!! If you liked Metroid, you'll love this. It's 3D, but not.
Worms and Worms 2 were both good, but I like those types of games.
If you like puzzles, there's Puzzle Quest, Puzzle Arcade, and Winterbottom.
Those are ones that I can think of that haven't already been mentioned. |

Posted - Jun 21 2010 : 6:32:21 PM Maw is a fun experience, yet tends to be quite easy.
I would recommend it, Age of Booty, Sam & Max (very good, but may be a bit pricey), and Family Game Night (arcade/retail? who knows, but good nonetheless).
Maybe Puzzle quest if you like bejeweled and RPG's
Peggle is nice and way difficult
Anything else I cannot comment on as I don't play many arcade titles. |
