I fucking hate that game.

my nomination are...

arkedo series: jump
arkedo series: swap

While they don't do anything new- they are super fun and look amazing.

also i look forward to pixel. I'm kind of an arkedo fanboy.

also.... shadow complex probably deserves a spot on here. I haven't played it yet, so i can't say for sure. But it has the retro vibe and people liked it.

I second both Jump and Swap! Both are very fun retro style games with a quirky atmosphere, and they are cheap as hell on XBL. Find them in the indie games section if you are interested.

I'm glad to see that Pixel looks fun. I can't wait to play it!

:mrgreen: I don't know why but I love that game.

I thought of a few more suggestions; A Boy and His Blob Wii, Contra Rebirth, and Excitebike: World Rally.
