I also love how I unlocked a gamer pic while playing. I'm pretty sure 'Splosion man is supposed to have the same feature but they haven't updated it yet.

All games should be like that. You should unlock themes and pics in game. Charging for that stuff is bullshit.

Its so much like Super Metroid its scary, love the game though.

My only complaint so far is how imprecise the shooting controls are when you have to aim in 3D ground.

Maybe I haven't played it since they updated it?

I got a gamer pic on my first play of it on the day it came out...so I'm not sure?

Maybe I did get a gamer pic. But I think they were supposed to have unlockable shirts for your avatar and a theme too. But I thought I heard that was in an update.

SC is so damn cool. I love it's old school feel with the secret rooms and hidden items.

Edit: Has anyone bought all of teh Summer of Arcade games? I've bought them all except MvC and was wondering how the 800 point rebate worked.

I bought Trials and SC this afternoon just before I left for work and my account hasn't updated with the extra 800 yet, so I'm not exactly sure when it's going to go through.

BTW Twigg, you need to step it up, I've passed your Trials times in almost all the courses I've run.

As far as I know with the Splosion Man thing, the last I heard was there was supposed to be some sort of update released to unlock the ability to get the unlockable clothing item.

Seriously can't wait to finally break in SC once I get some more time in on Trials. Sadly, I've got another 2 or so hours before I can finally get home and continue playing.

For the second time, I'm not trying to compete in that game. I'm just trying to finish all the tracks.

But if you want competition check out my cousin, gamertag Montto. I'm pretty sure his times blow yours and JMS's out of the water. He's a freak at that game. He has all but two achievements.

bring it on Ral!!!

Oh hell, I know I won't beat you in this. You get in Splosion Man, then you're in my territory, but as of this moment, I'll be surprised if I can beat more than like 5-10 of your times in the game. I'll give it a shot though.

I have been battling with slizz on the beginner tracks........I had the top times then he erased them now i erased his.

I beat Shadow Copmlex in just about 6 hours without too much exploration and only on level 16 I think, so there's definitely a lot more that can be done

It's definitely a game that needs to be played more then once.

Shadow Complex is freaking awesome. Just played it for the past 5 hours instead of sleeping. This is a real fun game.

 

[Twigg4075]

I would've gladly paid $30 for this game. $15 is a steal. I'm actually completely shocked that M$ diesn't charge $20 for it.

In my life I've been a Sega/Nintendo fan and I finally broke down to Sony... Never got an xbox, but I found some shit that'll make me buy an 360...

here's the link
My "Only" Reason for wanting an 360... This by far is one of my favorite games in life

 

[jms493]

I believe you'll find it's not as good as you remember. Although, the updated graphics look pretty sweet, I remember the N64 version being a blurry mess (but still fun back then). I hope they have Live play on it. I'd probably buy it if so.

 

[Buzzman]

theres a lot of classic games that just arent as good as you remember. Golden sucks for the N64 now if you try and play it.

 

[Twigg4075]

I don't think I'm going to even bother on the Extreme tracks on Trials. I've never came so close to smashing my controller. That game isn't fun to me anymore. It's just mind numbingly frustrating.
