Best review I've seen in a long time.
I'll probably download the demo, but this has gone from a guaranteed day one purchase to possibly day one to wait for it to go on sale.
It's the same price on XBLA and Steam...
Hang on, so the PSN version is the only one that is discounted if you buy a Season Pass?
The Deadlight achievements make it look like there is a heap to do in this game. I really cant justify spending 1200 points on a 2 hour game... I may as well just go to the movies.
90% of my XBLA collection was bought on various DOTWs. Limbo, LC:GoL, Braid, Shadow Complex...all 50% or more on DOTW. Good times.Ever since i got a Xbox i have never seen not one good deal of the week.
I agree. Wreckateer is one of the best Kinect only games.
You bought Jeremy McGrath, but not Trials Evolution?

I also buy most of my stuff on sale. Just got that Tomb Raider game for 50% off a couple of months ago... Are we not getting a big sale this summer like we had last summer? I bought like 10 games that time!90% of my XBLA collection was bought on various DOTWs. Limbo, LC:GoL, Braid, Shadow Complex...all 50% or more on DOTW. Good times.
But last few "deals" are pure shit, true.
To each their own and everything, but man...you crazy. XBLA has been on fire this year.-MikePriester- said:Not much else has grabbed me recently and I do try most of the demo's that interest me.

--All the Trappings - 200msp (was 400)
--Raziel & Kain Character Pack - 200msp (was 400)
I can't remember the last XBLA game I bought. I was really keen on Deadlight, but a few reviews I had read have complained about the length. One site said they finished their first run at 85% completion within 2hrs. :^/
My first run was around 79% at 1:48:00. I wasn't the one reviewing it so I didn't rush through.
Why do people always point to in game clocks when they're rarely accurate?
I got 60% of the achievements in one playthrough without caring about them if that helps.

Ooh, I might bite on that... Always loved the Soul Reaver games, completely forgot that character pack existed.Lara Croft Guardian of Light

Wow. have been saving 1000msp for something good for 6 weeks. Nothing again this week
I guess its to get people to buy the summer of arcade titles.
Anyway, SoA hasn't been great so far but look at the year so far as a whole and it's still probably the best year for XBLA yet.
Has been a fantastic year and there are still lots of great games on the horizon for end of year.
Anyone have a favourite Summer of Arcade?

That game better be Trials!Yep. 09 has my favourite game, but the overall quality of 08 is the best.
That game better be Trials!
Looking at the games lined up like that, 2012 really is the weakest one by far. They should've held off on stuff like Spelunky, Minecraft and Trials Evo... Actually, damn, 2011 was pretty bad too.

I must be the only person that counts 2009 as one of the worst, and 2011 as one of the best.
Dust could surpass them all though
2008 had GW2 and Braid and one of XBLA's biggest ever hits in Castle Crashers.
2009 had two absolute classics in Trials HD and Shadow Complex, games that are still considered among the best things on XBLA.
2010 is probably the best for a ratio of great:average with Hydro Thunder, Lara Croft and LIMBO.
2011 was ordinary. I have a feeling you'll disagree but Bastion isn't a good game. It's a brilliant spectacle but nothing more. The rest of 2011 are just, yeah, ordinary. There's nothing that people are going to still be coming back to in years to come where you look at the other three years and people are still playing a lot of those games.
I'd probably rate them 09 > 10 > 08 > 11, but with the first three changing depending on my mood. 11 will always be the poorest though.
My top games so far have been
1. Clash of Heroes
2. Bastion
3. Castle Crashers
4. Limbo
5. Braid
in that order, so 2008 and 2011 have been my top
Dust could surpass them all though and Crimson Dragon has a good chance to surpass many of them too
I think it could
I mean, it's sotn style game with amazingly fluid combat and it looks like something out of a disney movie.
hnnnnnng. Only two more weeks.
Haha, you guys are too nice. Seriously, I do hope you like the game, but don't let me being a Gaffer keep you from telling me if it sucks.
