At its inception, Xbox Live Arcade seemed like a great place for people to download remakes of old school games as well as new indie titles that might not otherwise get a retail release. With the size restrictions, no one expected more than simple-style games and old school classics. But that prejudice has been changing, with things like Portal: Still Alive and other games that look and feel more like mainline releases.
Of Interest to me list their picks for the Top 5 first person shooters on Xbox live arcade.
When it comes to online multiplayer for consoles, Call of Duty: Black Ops is the undisputed king in terms of popularity, but it’s by no means the only or even best option. Yes, games like Halo: Reach and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 vie for supremacy (BBC2: Vietnam is a testament to that), but there’s also a handful of downloadable shooters that come up short in terms of features, but still provide fast-paced and thrilling experiences without breaking the bank. If you can’t afford to jump on the COD bandwagon or despise the series, consider the following alternatives.

Bfbc2 vietnam and Modern combat domination will fill me with fps goodness until kz3 comes out.
Killzone 3 really has me on the fence about holding off on buying two graphics cards. Killzone 3 may force me to buy a Ps3 and just one graphics card. I know it's BLASPHEMY but I gotta do something cause I'm foaming at the mouth for Battlefield 3 and that won't be here for a while.
Had to take a break from BC2, I've gone through two mice on that game.
Overall, while it's light on full games, and contains no PSOne games, this week's update is loaded to the brim with ways to enhance existing games.
