Post Christmas Blues With Leftover Doritos - Brash Games

So, Christmas is over, and you've blown your emotional and financial wad on the quasi-religious spend-a-thon that we're increasingly – and erroneously, in my opinion – calling the 'holiday' season. What do you do now that you've exhausted yourself with all the motion control games you got for Christmas?

Firstly, do a little dance in celebration of the fact that we have a good... what, three months before you start seeing people listing how many 'sleeps' until Christmas on their Facebook page.

You forgot to add "thank God" at the end of the headline.

tomr29922516d ago

Indeed... Praise the Lord!

V0MIT_M0NSTER2516d ago

So glad that they won't mess with Banjo anymore.

-Foxtrot2514d ago

So you wouldn't want a proper Banjo-Threeie, Jade Empire or Kameo 2...really?

AZRoboto2514d ago

Or Crimson Skies. That was the shiz

FallenAngel19842516d ago

It's a shame we can't get another Banjo-Kazooie game

-Foxtrot2514d ago

Literally one that's called Banjo-Threeie and they start the game with Kazooie waking up in distress telling Banjo of a hardly nightmare while recapping Nuts and Bolts.

PhoenixUp2515d ago

Microsoft never could maintain a longrunning decent 3D platformers series of their own

AZRoboto2514d ago

I don't think "longrunning" is really necessary... Isn't Blinx the only one that got a sequel?

darthv722515d ago

Blinx needs to return if at least to show up Bubsy.

ninsigma2514d ago

Not sure if it was Xbox only back in the day but I'd love a current gen jet set radio!

Paytaa2514d ago

Jet Set Radio Future was only on Xbox. Fantastic game. Even better than Jet Set Radio for the Dreamcast in my opinion. Such a good soundtrack too

ninsigma2514d ago

Game was beast and deserves to come back on current gen. And hell yeah plus one for that soundtrack!

6 more titles drop in with Xbox One Backwards Compatibility – Are they worth the return?

Carlos "April proved to be a fantastic month for backwards compatible arrivals, with some of the most requested Xbox 360 games finally being made playable on Xbox One, all through the power of emulation. A new month means more titles and this week sees the first of May's BC titles bringing a double whammy for one popular series amongst the masses this week. Are they worth taking a look at?"

Ah how I love Geo Wars. This reminds me to go play it!

Notellin2550d ago

Loved these games! It's nice having these just added to my Xbox one library over time. Always have something to do even during game launch droughts.

4Sh0w2550d ago (Edited 2550d ago )

Daayum, they are killing it with X1 BC support. Now just show me some nice exclusives at E3 and I'll have no complaints.

BLKxSEPTEMBER2550d ago

I,bought some side scrolling Ninja game back in the day on XBL on 360 but I can't remember the name of it. It was fun as Hell! It was cell shaded and pretty violent. I wish they would bring that to BC. Anyone remember the name of that game?

Auron2550d ago

Was it N+ or mark of the ninja?

DaFeelz2550d ago

Two good guesses. I'm leaning towards Mark of the Ninja. N+ was only a single room you had to solve and MotN was a true side scroller. Both were violent as shit though.

DaFeelz2550d ago

*sigh* Dragons Dogma... where for art thou?
