From the PlanetXbox360.com feature review:
"What exactly is meant by the term "shadow complex"? If this were a college psychiatry lecture, it would probably be a synonym for the fear of the night, noctiphobia. Or it may be the exact opposite and attribute to one's adoration to the love of night life in general. Whatever the case may be, it's fairly certain that after gamers play Chair Entertainment and Epic Games' Shadow Complex, they will run out and profess their love of all things dark to anyone that will listen. That's right; Shadow Complex is the must-have Xbox Live Arcade title of the year that caps-off the brilliant Summer of Arcade promotion sponsored by Microsoft. For those gamers coming in blind to the world of Shadow Complex and know not a single thing about the fantastic side-scroller, here is a short run-down of what the title is all-about."

Neil writes "It’s Tuesday again and that can only mean one thing – it’s time for another Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale. What bargains will be in place on Xbox One and Xbox 360 between the 3rd-9th May 2016?
There are a whole ton of them and surely this is the week for you to crack open the wallet?"
Quite a big sale but not entirely convinced all are decent deals. Glad to see the 360 gets a few more offers this week. I wish Screamride was on sale by itself!
Gears Ultimate Day 1 Edition? I can understand picking up day 1 physical editions at later dates, that were stuck in the retail channel for whatever reason. Late "day 1" digital sales make no sense at all though.
This is the 5th or 6th time they've had Battlefront on "sale" in the last few months
Still overpriced imo
Game is freaking amazing to play and easily the best XBLA experience I have ever played, the 5 hours for first playthrough is nothing compared to what you need to do to collect all of the unlockables.....great amount of replayability.
Everyone with a 360 should be picking this up on Wed, it's a bargain at $20....
It's one of those games where you can just tell the developers at Chair Entertainment knew exactly what they were doing and it resulted in one hell of a fun game, well done review and I'm agreeing with you 100%, maybe would have even scored it a bit higher!
It's that good....
I will be downloading this on Wednesday because every review that has gone live this morning has been very positive, all with high scores over 9.0 - can't wait to play it and see for myself it an XBLA release can really stand up to some retail games (as it says in this review).
Too bad the PS3 doesn't have anything of this quality on it's downloadable network, the only thing is Fat Princess and that game probably comes nowhere close, maybe someday the geniuses at Epic will make a game for the PS3 owners (me included)!
I'll be getting this
