    hey,
    i've for 400 points left over from buying some games @ the start of the year.
    any suggestions what game to buy?

    best idea i've come up with is to get some more points and buy Galaga Legions...
    which will most likely start a vicious circle of extra point.......

    Not too many good games out for the 400 price point as far as i know! Have you got Geometry Wars 2 or Braid or Bionic Commando Rearmed or Rez? they are all 800 (1200 for Braid) but they are all amazing arcade games! :)

    For 400 points 5 games come to mind:
    Marble Blast Ultra-Good for a puzzle game and multiplayer is fun as well.
    Geometry Wars 1-Good but the second one is much better
    Small Arms-Good little party game comparable to super smash bros
    Uno-Good at the beginning but gets repetitive
    WarlordsAgain Good at the beginning but gets repetitive

    Id try the demos of each of them and choose which one you like the most

    Go for braid. You already have geo2 so go for braid! seriously 1200 isnt that much and all you need is 800 points which is about 12 euro I think off the xbox.

    Golden Axe is 400 isnt it? Crap port but it brings back good memories of the oul Sega Megadrive :D

    Doom was reduced to 400 points and it is excellent. That's my suggestion, try the trial version!

    +1 for Streets of Rage 2, or if you're willing to shell out for the extra points, go for geometry wars 2, its addictive.

    +1 for Braid :) (so get some extra points)

    +1 for Braid, Duke Nukem is coming out on XBLA soon too. If its priced like Doom, you should be able to afford it.

    Marble Blast Ultra, awesome game!

    -1 for Braid

    Very overrated game imho
    People seem to be singing its praises just because its an indy game that turned out fairly well, rather than because it's an example of sheer excellence...
    More of a 8/10 game than the 10/10 that it seems to be getting

    Galaga Legions is pretty cool, haven't played much of it so far but I can definitely see myself getting stuck into that. I'd say add 500 points and grab that for yourself


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭Jerichoholic


    If Hexic or Hexic 2 are 400, grab one of them.

    Marble Blast is the best value for 400 points, very enjoyable. Streets of Rage won't last long but you'll have nostalgia dripping out of your ears for as long as it lasts.
