Though it's quickly proving to be one of the biggest buzz games of 2009, Shadow Complex was not a sure bet for Chair Entertainment when the project began. Born of a love of Super Metroid and G.I. Joe, the exploratory side-scroller meshes classic '90s 2D game design with contemporary technology, visuals, and combat.
Chair Entertainment was founded out of the ashes of the Advent Rising project, an ambitious but ultimately unsuccessful Majesco-published attempt to build a triple-A epic fantasy adventure series around the writings of sci-fi author Orson Scott Card. Chair's mission is now decidedly different: to create high-quality download-only games.
The company's debut release was 2007's Undertow, a shooter that gained positive notice and also showed that Unreal Engine 3 could be squished down into 49 megs -- just under Microsoft's cap for download game size at the time. Technical feats like this were likely one of the reasons the company was acquired by Epic Games in 2008.

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
