I have 1700 MS points just lying in my account, and it kind of feels that they are going to waste just sitting there so I thought maybe I will get an arcade game or Xbox Original. I narrowed it down to these:

Castle Crashers; Played the demo, it was fun, if not a little difficult. I won't have a heap of people to play it with, but I will be able to get some MP action with it.

Puzzle Quest; Played the demo, also fairly fun, bit too much text in my opinion, it was also fairly difficult, but it was enjoyable and seemed quite long.

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey; Don't know heap about this game, it looks fun though and got pretty good reviews. I heard that it has a disappointing ending though?

Sid Meier's Pirates; I've seen this played, it looks fun, got good reviews, I like pirates.

Fahrenheit/Indigo Prophecy; Played a demo of this a while back for PS2, it seemed good.

Psychonauts; Heard it's good, other than that, don't know much about it.

Metal Arms: Glitch in The System; played this on PS2 a few years ago, loved it other than for the fact that the driving made me motion sick.

Or should I not bother and save the points for something coming up (please extrapolate if so)?

Thanks in advance.

Caste Crashers looks really good but Im trying not to buy it, Id rather not support 1200 point XBLA games becuase I dont want that to become the norm. However I will say that I have Psychonauts for my xbox and its an excellent game. I played through it at least 5 or 6 times it isnt a game that should be missed.

I'd say Indigo Prohecy. That is one of my favorite games. It's got a good story memorable characters and sweet action seguences.

Psyconauts is a terrific game from last gen. It's funny, has great platform elements, great bosses, and lots of stuff to collect.

I'd hold on to the points. Check out all you options based on your gaming preferences, including upcoming Arcade releases. Don't make a choice until you 100% sure about it, but make that choice based on your own opinion.

Sorry, the Sticky at the top of this board was designed exactly for this purpose. Ask this question there.
