It seems one of the common themes at GDC this year were developers complaining about Microsoft and the XBLA.First we heard about the Super Meat Boy devs who claimed that Microsoft promised them great coverage in return for exclusivity but then reneged on that promise and promoted it equally with Costume ...

Microsoft have once again concluded their annual user poll on the very best games that the Xbox Live Arcade Service had to offer. Over a million people voted this year, and the votes have been tallied. Last year, Castle Crashers won the coveted best overall game, beating out Braid – both of them two of my ... [»]
Somehow forgetting the existence of Valve’s Steam, Microsoft have proclaimed themselves to be the undisputed leaders of digital distribution. This comes after the 200 percent increase in sales since last year. Admittedly, this was bolstered by a fantastic summer line-up of games, including Shadow Complex and Trials HD, both of which – according ... [»]
Shadow Complex, the Metroid-inspired 2.5D action adventure is a great game. The exploration-heavy Unreal Engine powered downloadable game has been one of my favourites this year. Pity that the leaderboards are filled with cheaters who’ve figured out a way to exploit the game’s code to their own nefarious cheating ways. Developers Chair ... [»]
Well I may have to mention for the sake of the non-believers but Radical Entertainment proved themselves to be serious competitors as developers for the sandbox genre. In other words, because of the fact they focused gameplay on fun and just plain awesomeness (rather than the typical repetitive missions and rote missions), their latest title, Prototype proved itself even against big 'hypes' like ...

Shadow Complex is, in my mind, undoubtedly the gem of what Xbox Live Arcade is and what it could be in future.
Awesome visuals, addictive gameplay and all for an underserving price considering what you get. The game has also enjoyed immensely good ... [»]

In my hands-on article about Shadow Complex that I wrote this week, I said that the beginning of the game felt a whole lot like I was playing some sort of 2.5D version of Uncharted on my Xbox 360.
The game goes it's ... [»]
Currently, if you own an Xbox 360 then you are one of two people. Either you have already played Shadow Complex or you have heard the hype and are wondering if it's worth the pricey tag of 1200 MS points.
With the download ... [»]

Reviews are coming in and from the looks of it, this is going to be one of the first truly must-have XBLA titles, ... [»]
At the risk of sounding nostalgic I have to admit, I'm a sucker for the old-school. And oh man I love it when developers recreate the kinda of fun gameplay I grew up with and include amazing hi-def graphics, awesome new weapons and incredible enemies combined with a cool story.Hence I'm looking forward to Turtles ...

It’s Summer for our northern hemisphere brethren, and that means it’s time once again for Xbox Live’s Summer of Arcade. Last year saw the release of some of Xbox Live Arcade’s most prolific titles – Such gems as Braid, Castle Crashers, which are still two of my favourite arcade titles. Those of us stuck in ... [»]
