I'm looking forward to the Virtual On game for XBLA..

but IMO they need more obscure games.. like Trap Gunner (PSX)
and Psychic Force to name a few

[/QUOTE

Yeah, i would personally like to see some more actual arcade games, like x-men or the simpsons on there. For the most part i think Microsoft has amassed a fine library of games. I'm excited for Earthworm Jim next week and then the future release of, Hydro Thunder.

It would be grand to see some more side scrollers like, Castlevania as well.

Yeah, 1200 points is a lot. The other Metal Slug game on the arcade is definitely worth the points and i think Metal Slug X is worth them as well, considering the other shit they release at 1200 but it is a shorter game. However, the difficulty is better balanced and the achievements are actually possible to attain 😂

How do you like, Watchmen? I bought that when it released. I thought it was a decent title but definitely not worth 1600 points. The first watchmen game didn't offer online multiplayer. It's inexcusable to not offer online multiplayer on an xbox LIVE game. If there were online multiplayer that game may have worth playing through more than once. There are a lot of easy achievements i havent gotten on that game because, even though it was fun to play through once, i couldn't be bothered to play through a second time.I know the second one offers multiplayer but i don't know if it's online. I was stunned to see that they were only offering the first Watchmen at a discounted price. That makes no sense to me.

Oh this shall be bought.

I finished playing, Costume quest earlier today and i thought i'd suggest the game to everyone. I had a lot of fun with this little game. It has a very innocent theme to it. The humor and characters remind me of more sarcastic peanuts characters. It has that same type of charm and humor. The game has you traveling around your neighborhood and other areas trying to save your sibling while trying to uncover a mystery as to why witches, trolls and goblins are trying to steal all the candy on Halloween night. While doing this you travel around trick or treating, acquiring new followers to help you on your journey and discovering new costumes and upgrades. It's an RPG and even though it's incredibly easy it's still quite addictive. Each costume you wear gives you different abilities and there are stamp cards that you collect for power-ups. It's a rather short and easy game but if you're looking for something relaxing to play with a few laughs that may remind you of being a kid on Halloween, i definitely suggest buying this game.

Whoever made Europe 5 in Doritos Crash Course and the gold medal specifics for it is a dick. Just saying.

That aside, Harm's Way was a nice recent arcade freebie too.

Played quite a bit of the trial of X-Men arcade. Guess I shouldn't be surprised, but it's decently better than I initially thought. Wish this game had Gambit though, but aside from that, it's pretty fun. Colossus and Nightcrawler are my favorites to use gameplay-wise, and if enough people I know are getting it, it should be a blast with 5 or 6 players. Even expert mode shouldn't be too hard with that many players I reckon.
