its tough to drop 1200 pts on XBLA games, since they only keep my interest for a week at most. i may buy castlevania, but still undecided.

I agree, 1200 points is lot for an arcade game. I've only bought 1 game at that price, which was Toy Soldiers, but I felt that was pretty much worth it.

tbh none of the "summer of overpricing" games interest me. If they were 800 points I might take a look, but I'll pass at 1200.

I just picked up Shadow Complex which I think was worth the money. Limbo looks interesting, I'll have to see.

Limbo looks awesome, but rumour is that its really short, so will prob wait for a price drop on it, dont really feel like shelling out 1200msp on a game i will finish in an afternoon

I'll definitely be picking up the new Castlevania game on day-1. It's just too bad that it's being released on the same day that my vacation ends. :( Oh well, this game is gonna rock!!!

1200 points = 15 bucks for a XBLA game, I don't if I'm going to play any

Maybe Monday Night Combat, but I'm not sure if it will have a sustainable community.

I don't, I need to though, that and Castle Crashers. If I get any of those games, Hydro Thunder looks pretty cool, they have something similar at Chuck E. Cheeses :P

Limbo, Castlevania and Lara Croft. The other two depend big time on reviews and word of mouth for me.
