    Fruit Ninja turns out to be a good one if you have Kinect.

    • The Baconing - 600 MSP
    • Torchlight - 600 MSP
    • Warhammer 40,000: Kill Team - 400 MSP

    There is also a Konami sale:
    Battle: Los Angeles - 400 MSP
    BurgerTime World Tour - 400 MSP
    Castlevania: Symphony of the Night - 400 MSP
    Castlevania: Harmony of Despair 600 MSP

    I loved Zombie Apocalypse though and folks rate the Castlevania games highly.

    I'd recommend the Baconing but you really would have needed to play the other deathspank games 1st.

    Try out the trial of Gotham City Imposters which lasts 1 hour.. Now that they've fixed the matchmaking, its quite fun. Others worth looking at would be Pinball FX2, Quarrel, NBA Jam, Outland, Risk Factions

    Shakes fist at outland, been trying to beat the final boss for months :(

    Been a long time since i've faced down a final boss that tough, wouldnt mind I have full health and loads of hearts, they get me on the last phase every time even if i;ve conserved a lot of health during the battle!!!!!!

    I know, you would think they would flash this all over the dash so sell it !!!!!
    I forget to update the deal thread as recently there has been little of interest to me.

    Odd thing is It's there in my face when I sign in on my UK account.

    I've not played through it all yet, But what i've found is its like Unchartered but alot more realistic like when you get shot you die ....when you're climbing you can only go for a certain amount of time and you'll lose ur grip and fall and die lol, But yeah i'm really loving it so far, alls thats missing is zombies lol.....kidding :)

    If you havent played portal I would definately recommend picking it up!

    Also Bastion is a great game to kill a few hours and the narrative alone is worth the price.

    Alternatively Tony Hawks 1 and 2 is coming out in the summer!!!:D
