  Look at all the pretty XBLA titles!

  I just can't believe the amount of xbla titles that I haven't taken a swing at. All of which I played demos for and had a really great time. As a giant fan of Alan Wake, not only did I buy the DLC, but I recently picked up "American Nightmare" from the live arcade. WOW! Live arcade games sure have come along way from remakes or ports of games from the 80's! I'm really interested in seeing where my next purchase will go? Do I really need to spend the $60 some odd dollars for something on a disc, or do I go with something (possibly a little shorter) that I can (guaranteed) play the demo for and that is more affordable? I think the answer is a no brainer! Either way (& moreso because I don't think anyone reads these) for my own personal referrence, a list of current xbla titles, I absolutely MUST get and play through: (in no particular order) Limbo, I am Alive, BloodForge, Warp, EarthwormJim HD (yea, I know I made a previous comment about remakes/ports from the past, but it's EARTHWORM JIM!!!), Deep Black,Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet, & Rush N attack

  difference of opinion or troll?

  Gamespot didn't like my spoof topic in a forum for new game Bodycount. Ironic, given the fact that so many other people were busy cussing and being childlike. The point of this was to say, "hey, if you don't like a game, why bother even wasting your time bad mouthing it?" Anyhow, here in it's full glory is my post:

  (pouts) I just thought I'd jump on these forums to remind you about how terrible this game is. I hate things that aren't exactally like Call of Doodie and Halo, and this game isn't like either. I'm so angry! (poot.. that was a wet one... wait, they're always wet these days..) If you really want to know a bad game, try the demo out- I didn't, I just know when games are bad.. (mom!!! bring me another slice of pizza!!! you're so lazy!!!!) Whatever, try the stupid demo out, you'll see that it's just a bunch of shooting! What kind of moron wants shooting in a first person shooter???? God, Codemasters really let me down... And no one on here better have a different opinion, because I speak for gamers everywhere; just look at the reviews from Gamespot & IGN! They didn't like it, I don't like it, and you're a stupid human being if you don't think exactly like we do! I was so excited about this game, because I heard it was like Black, not that I actually played Black because my stupid parents didn't buy me it for Christmas, because I was probably adopted and they hate me. Anyways, this game isn't even like Black, someone on the internet just said it wasn't, so there! If you buy this game and say that you like it, you're stupid and are trying to justify paying $60 for a game that ISN'T like the games I like. (MOM!!!! another slice!!!!! GOD! what's wrong with you?!?! what?! NOOOoo, i'm not going to say please!!!!! wwwwaaah!!!) Now you see how bad his game is, It made me cry. ....this game is responsible for all the pollution in the world too, so if you like this game you should get a job because you are probably homeless. (MOM! I told you to knock before you come into my room!!!! Just leave the pizza on the floor and get out. What??? no, i just forgot to wear underwear... I don't care if it smells... )

  ...and there it is! Hope you enjoyed it!

  I am a cult gamer...

  ...and i'm not ashamed to admit it! Many of my favorite games have been shunned by the AAA gaming elite, and i couldn't care less. Maybe it's that I have lower expectations for my gaming enjoyment, or maybe I just love to support smaller developers. Maybe I sense the heart and soul of a few people that gave it their all in making a game they believed in, or maybe I just have a softspot for the underdog. Although there are some AAA titles that I do enjoy, I tend to usually replay the games that fly under the radar or get (often times) bashed by our "Oh so competant reviewers.". For example, here is a list of some of my favorite gamesfrom both last generation and the current generation:

  Bullet Witch

  Kane & Lynch I & II

  XIII

  The Getaway I & II

  Legendary

  Wet

  Deadly Premonition

  Timeshift

  Manhunt 2

  Stubbs the Zombie

  Evil Dead: Regeneration

  Wolfenstein

  Killer 7

  Advent Rising (if only this game were backwards compatible)

  Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard

  Armed & Dangerous
