Console Monster writes: "There is something about buying arcade games lately that leaves me expecting nothing more than a simple, quick title. It's usually an impulse buy, something to play while I wait for friends to come online or a quick distraction from a busy day. Which is why I was honestly shocked around half way in Shadow Complex with how much this game has to offer, and how much realistically I was going to end up replaying it.
Everyone is going to tell you that Shadow Complex is a Super Metroid and Castlevania rip off, and you know what? They would be 100% correct. The developers, Chair, claimed they were inspired by those timeless classics, but I'd use the word 'inspired' loosely. Down to the missiles for red doors, Shadow Complex uses maybe too many of the aforementioned titles ideas, and while it can be a nostalgia fest for some, others might feel the game is nothing more than a re-skin..."

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
