IGN Writes: "From the moment I was first shown Shadow Complex, I knew that I wanted to play it.
Now that I've explored every nook and cranny of this massive Xbox Live Arcade game and saved the day multiple times, I still want to play it. If this is the direction the Xbox Live Arcade is going in, bring it on. At 1200 Microsoft points (US $15), Shadow Complex pushes the upper boundaries of what most would expect to pay for a Live Arcade game.
In this case, the price tag is completely justified. This massive action game, designed in the style of Super Metroid or Castlevania, is one of the best games of the summer."

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
I did tell myself not to buy this game just yet, because i have spent too much recently on downloadable games both on Xbox live and PSN.
But reading this and other reviews is making it even harder not to just load up my account with microsoft points and buy it! :(
9.4!!!
Wow after all those negative stories about the game being short it goes and gets a 10 in lasting appeal, 2009 could be the first time an XBLA games gets GOTY lol
Can't wait. Awesome review.
Definitely going to buy this on day one.
This game looks so incredible. Gonna buy it on day one. =D
GOTY contender me thinks.
XBLA really has this summer on lockdown with Splosion man, Trials HD and Shadow Complex.
