With 2010 in full swing I finally found a little time to put together a list of the best Xbox Live Arcade games of 2009. You can check it out here.

I don’t know what made me decide to try out 0 Day Attack on Earth, but I wish I had not. It is one of the worst Xbox Live Arcade games I’ve played in a long time.  I’ve got a full review up here if you want to read why it is so bad.

I joined the Adult Gaming Enthusiasts podcast this week and we discussed the slow Xbox Live Arcade releases recently, Assassin’s Creed 2, Borderlands DLC, CoD MW Reflex Edition, Super Mario Bros Wii, and the  Tropico 3 Demo.

When Wool released on Xbox Live Indie Games this week I tried out the demo right away because the art looks really nice and I like action puzzle games.  In the game you play as a sheep dog who is responsible for corralling the sheep in the level safely.  There are white sheep, black sheep […]

They guys from Evil Avatar’s Shotgun podcast invited me to join them for this week’s episode.  We discussed Arcade and Indie games as well as XBLAratings.com. We also announced a contest to give away eleven Xbox Live Indie Games.  Check out the podcast here and find out how you can win a free game.  Plus, […]

Just a week ago Defense Grid: The Awakening released on Xbox Live Arcade and I’ve been loving it. I finally completed the main campaign but I still need to do the four expansion levels. This is in addition to the 60 challenge levels I still have to work through. If you remember my initial demo […]

I’ve been playing and absolutely loving Red Faction: Guerrilla this week. I also started playing some Guitar Hero: Metallica but I’m only about 1/3 of the way through the guitar career. Hopefully you’ll be seeing a review (or rant) about it next week. Today though I was checking out Droplitz and Scallywags. Droplitz was pretty […]

Today was my catch up day for all the interesting looking Xbox Live Arcade and Community Games that I’ve been downloading for the last two weeks. So far I’ve checked out Gel, Yosumin Live, Blazing Birds, SQONG, Pellmell, and Hexy Trench. I’ve started posting ratings for them on XBLA & XNA Ratings and I’ll be […]

I’ve been playing a lot of Space Invaders Extreme since it released. It is the first Xbox Live Arcade game I purchased for quite a while. I’m really enjoying what all they’ve added to one of the few classic arcade games I’d still throw my quarters in. The graphics in Extreme look great. They have […]

I’ve been playing Crystal Defenders for weeks now and I finally got the last achievement. I have a few levels left to try and get perfect runs without loosing any lives, but I’m close. It has been a while since I got all the achievements for any game and it feels good to have them […]
