15 dollar game though......still looks decent.

6 hours is decent time for an XBLA game. Hell COD4's single player wasn't much longer than that....


Wonders if there is a trial out.....

[A Tasty Burgerr]

I just bought Trials but I'll probably end up buying this too

[Twigg4075]

This game should kick ass. $15 is more than worth it. Like it's been mentioned, some $60 games don't have the amount of content this game has.

This game kicks serious ass.

This game kicks serious ass.

Indeed it does.

i'm like 4 hours in..

got the missles most recently.

probably will try for 100% too. it's got a crackdown like addiction (orb hunting. crackdown could have been devoid of everything but orb hunting and I woulda still paid 60 for it. lol)

Man, I want the missles!

I think I'm gonna go for the 13% achievements before 100%, shit's gonna be extremely hard with all the secret rooms and stuff

[Prodigal Son]

I recommend you go for the Status Report: Single achievement ASAP.

im a little under 3 hours in about to get the foam. easily the best orginal XBLA title ive played. sort of a mix between metroid gameplay and metal gear solid 1 setting and atmosphere. really liking it so far

I'm definitely with you on the MGS vibe.

This game fucking rocks. I'm about to beat it for my...I think fourth, time. Just now trying to get the final achievement (before the INSANE speed runs) of level 50. I'm playing on insane. It isn't QUITE as fun because literally 10 bullets hitting you can kill you, but still, I love it.

This summer of Arcade was a success for me just because of this and 'Splosion Man. I'd like to throw Trials in there, but I'm with Twigg in that it just becomes unplayable for me. I'm not horrible at it, but some levels just have you wrecking SO FREAKING MUCH and the controls can be SO finicky....I dunno, just feel like I was hosed a little.

Still, back on topic, Shadow Complex is great. I literally do not get sick of this game. It's like Super Metroid all over again (which I guess was the idea).

Yeah, they are describing it at Metroidvania. I would even throw some MGS in there, like Crimson said.

I'm still in shock that M$ didn't try to charge $30 for this game. I give them a lot of flak but this game is a fucking classic and an unbelievable bargain at $15.

how many times you gonna say that Twigg?

[Twigg4075]

As many times as I want to. LOL.

I'm just amazed at how great and cheap this game is.
