    Splosion Man & Geometry Wars 2! brilliant games


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,971 ✭✭✭Flaccus


    Wait for Shadow Complex


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 261 ✭✭Liathroidi Dana


    Castle Crashers, Briad, Peggle, Portal if any of them dont float your boat, Shadow Complex looks fairly class!

    Best bet is to use the new top rated feature.

    theres 50 tracks but i just noticed you can only share custom tracks with your friends which is stupid

    Yea I got it, its bloody addictive, but some of the tracks will take a while to beat so thats good.

    What I hate are the only friends thing with sharing content...

    Not sure if its worth the 1200msp though...

    don't go near Peggle, it's just luck.

    Go for Marble Blast ultra(only 400 pts).
    You could also got for Lost and the Damned for 1600 if you alreay haver GTAIV

    Not to hi-jack the thread but I've got 500 points sitting in my account. No idea what to get. I almost went for Doom as it was one of the first games I ever played on the PC, and cleared. There's plenty of nostalgia there. What I already got with the points was Monkey Island Special Edition, Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 (again, nostalgia), and err.... something something.
    Any stand outs I could get for 500 or less? I'm not that interested in add ons.


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,676 ✭✭✭jayteecork


    I went for doom and it's ace.

    DOOM. It feels good to even spell it. Ah, man. I might. :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,147 ✭✭✭mise


    Im lovin Trials HD, Can see there being a lot of replayability, trying to beat friends scores..

    Battlefield 1943 is well worth the points imo

    Monkey Island, Braid, Castle Crashers, Splosion Man, Puzzle Quest, Marble Blast Ultra, Switchball all great games..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,535 ✭✭✭joe123


    Battlefield 1943. Well worth it.

    Is that out?

    I presume there's a trial for it?!

    Be ironic if there wasn't, lol.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,565 ✭✭✭corcaigh07


    400 points for marble blast ultra is good value


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,676 ✭✭✭jayteecork


    You could go for 4x400.

    Marble Blast, Doom, Uno, and something else. One of the SEGA classics maybe - Sonic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,509 ✭✭✭Donnelly117


    battlefield 1943 is good
    so is portal

    Braid (original), Battlefield 1943 (great value online shooter), Geometrey Wars 1&2 (although they made me smash my controller in frustration), or Portal (it's by Valve, nuff said). Castle Crashers is supposed to be good too.

    If you're looking for DLC I'd recommend the Fallout 3 add-ons or the GTAIV one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,738 ✭✭✭djkeogh


    Try Bionic Commando Rearmed. One of the best Arcade games I've played. I'd give the thumbs up for Peggle, Braid and if you're a street fighter fan then get SF2HD Remix.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,422 ✭✭✭RAIN


    Battlefield 1943 all the way.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,204 ✭✭✭Kenny_D


    They should be patching multiplayer soon. I played it locally with my cousin. A LOT of fun. And you get a nice free premium dashboard theme and some unlockable stuff for your avatar. Bargain at 800 points

    Battlefield 1943 is well worth the money. Theres only 4 maps but its still weeks of fun.


  • Site Banned Posts: 5,676 ✭✭✭jayteecork


    Having played the demo I'd say go for Trials.

    You'll have enough left over to go for Doom or MArble Blast.
