If anyone doesn't have Shadow Complex they'd be absolute mad not to pick it up for that price. 'Splosion Man too.

I'm really hoping that they announce Shadow Complex 2 at E3. The first took 9 months to make so there's no reason it couldn't be out this summer.

I doubt sc2 will be coming out any time soon,cliffy b has 2 different big titles coming out over the next half a year so id say all their effort will be on gow3 and the outher one,cant remember the name but its meant to be like burnout fps

shadow complex and trials hd for less than 1200 points is an absolute steal, the 2 games i enjoyed the most of all last year including retail games. i still play trials from time to time and really enjoyed beating shadow complex.

buy buy buy!

Bonavox

Very interesting! Might have to look into getting a few while they're going cheap.

Lot's of these were already deals of the week in the last while, but now I have an excuse for Trials, shadow complex , and splosion man

Do you mean Bulletstorm? That's being developed by People Can Fly through Epic, and Chair developed Shadow Complex so I'm still hopeful of a Shadow Complex 2 anouncement. I haven't heard of the Chair team doing anything since, so fingers crossed.

So annoyed, I only bought Trials last week for 1200

Just Portal and Vandal Hearts for me there. I already have most of them.

These deals are for Gold Subscribers only...

Does anyone think/ know if a person on a silver account who then used a 48hour gold trial could avail of these offers?

niallon

Gold is gold as far as I'm aware. When I was scraping by on trial subs I showed as a Gold member, nothing different about my account from when it was a fully paid up Gold

Thanks man, I'm liking Banjo Tooie & possibly 1989 TMNT for the moment.

Ah well at least you saved me from wasting a trial. nice one dude

****. just played the trial and now as a result of that I'm addicted to shadow complex. Have to wait until tomorrow to get the full version

djkeogh

there are some fantastic deals there alright. I missed on Trials HD last time it went on sale so will defo be picking that up this time. Also gonna grab Castlevania.

Anyone looking for any 1 game to get then I'd strongly recommend Shadow Complex. It is an absolute cracker of a game and easily one of the finest available on XBLA.

this thread title brought back fond memories of GTA and AmmuNation's "blowout sale!" adverts

Hopefully by this time tomorrow we'll have heard that Shadow Complex 2 is imminent!

Just a reminder.

Jev/N

Bought 'Splosion Man & Trials HD so far, might grab some more points to get Shadow Complex before the offers are up!

chrislad

I got Trials, and I am considering 'Splosion Man, as I enjoyed Cloning Clyde (the only Arcade game I have 200pts in, bar that crappy Doritos one).

Might save my points for the upcoming summer of arcade though. Have a feeling those ones will be the 1200 point ones.

Does this sale end tomorrow or is it continuing over the weekend?
