Xbox Arcade Games?

[BlueJay PMS]

Hey guys! I recently go some points and I've decided to invest in a xbox live arcade game and I need some help choosing. I want something fun that I can enjoy playing for over 2hrs with achievements to get that aren't to hard and aren't to easy! Any thoughts?

[H2O Gilly]

Well I got gotham city imposters on sunday and thats fantastic, great fun

beyond that I dont have any arcade games on xbox, maybe worms armaggedon? cant go wrong with worms

Doritos (it's kind of like that WipeOut game show)

Oh man Doritos Crash Course can BITE ME so hard. There's one course on there that just frustrates me to no end.

BlueJay, you should check out Dead Block if you like rock 'n' roll and zombies, it's a pretty hilarious tower defense/zombie basher type dealio that is fun and challenging at the same time. Harm's Way is also fun and entertaining, but probably more so if you have friends to play it with (but as it's free, getting your friends to get it is pretty easy.) My favorite arcade game is, of course, Doom (and Doom II.) Achievements are pretty easy but not a gimme, and it's (obvs) super fun to play solo, or you can co-op.

I THINK there's a demo for Dead Block, but don't quote me on it. No demo for Harm's Way, because it's free. Also I don't know about either of the Dooms, but come on, do you really need demos for those? It's DOOM. It's been around for like, 20 years or so. It is a magical part of my youth and don't you dare say anything bad about it so help me.

D: I've never played DOOM! I am like 20 years old! Lol I think I have Harms Way...I will have to look more into DOOM

Get Walking Dead the game! It is amazing!

[Pony PMS]

Doom II is better, IMO. Serious Sam HD is very similar to that as well. BOTH have coop now, soooo that's an idea. Also, DUNGEON DEFENDERS!!! It's the bomb

Oh my goodness, Pony, your new sig is hilariously adorable.

AWWW thanks

Shadow Complex - A lot like Super Metroid in all the right ways. Ridiculously cheesy story, but the game is so much fun!

Bastion - Just epic, tied with S.C. for my fav XBLA game

Pac Man CE DX - don't knock it until you try it. A rare update to a classic that actually makes it better in a lot of ways!

'Splosion Man - One of the best platformers, lots of fun, quirky, awesome co-op mode

Limbo - Cool platformer, creepy art style. Not terribly long, but a great experience.

Monkey Island SE - If you have never played a point and click adventure, you should give this a try. It's a little weird to get used to, but it is a hilarious game.

If you like fighting games, I have a whole separate list for them :P

wait whats this? I read further up that someone hasnt played DOOM :O shocking stuff lol

And dungeon defenders is pretty wicked, been a while since I played it though and i believe its had some updates so might be even better now

True, you may enjoy both of these. I could totally see you playing Limbo.

Yeah there is DLC now! I totally haven't gotten it and I'm bummed....when I do you'll have to come play with us. I'm a DD addict

[H2O Gilly]

Alas pony, I have it on PC, and my games laptop has been broken for some time now

[Jump Guy H2O]

I love Shadow Complex! I heard there is going to be a Shadow Complex 2 eventually!

That would make me so happy! I still have 2 achievements left to get on the first one. I might be due up for another playthru soon. Might go for the one to beat it getting less than 10% of the items. I think I have enough infinite stuff unlocked to do it. It is so great once you open that golden weapon room!
