A love letter to Metroid. That's the pitch Epic games has put to players anticipating the release of Shadow Complex – a side-scrolling action-adventure-platformer in the traditions of Nintendo's venerable series. In no uncertain terms, Shadow Complex is, indeed, very much Metroid for your Xbox 360 and PC. But, excising the space-borne Samus Aran for Jason 'Captain-Generic-White-Guy-Harrison Ford-Meets-Nathan-Drake-Meets-Nathan-Fillion' Flemming, what really remains is a game with its own unique flavour.
Although the Xbox has less exclusives than other platforms, it has some absolute gems. Read to find out what the 10 best Xbox Exclusives of all time are!

Neil writes "It’s Tuesday again and that can only mean one thing – it’s time for another Xbox Live Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale. What bargains will be in place on Xbox One and Xbox 360 between the 3rd-9th May 2016?
There are a whole ton of them and surely this is the week for you to crack open the wallet?"
Quite a big sale but not entirely convinced all are decent deals. Glad to see the 360 gets a few more offers this week. I wish Screamride was on sale by itself!
Gears Ultimate Day 1 Edition? I can understand picking up day 1 physical editions at later dates, that were stuck in the retail channel for whatever reason. Late "day 1" digital sales make no sense at all though.
This is the 5th or 6th time they've had Battlefront on "sale" in the last few months
Still overpriced imo
why VS? they could have said comparaison.
Metroid is a great series that I've been enjoying since a early kid and the devs that are making shadow complex also have said that they were influenced by the game and their is some key elements that will resemble the Metroid world.
I Agree!
Epic Games should focus on Gears 3 instead :S I'm only buying Metroid: Other M
The original is always better but it's good that newer games take inspiration from the original and evolve the ideas and mechanics that made the original so great.
look really amazing,cause it combines the classic\rewarding game style+intense huge fire fights
this might be the greatest arcade game ever released on xbla
