Pac-man has been rehashed so many times over the years it's a bit ridiculous. However this was one gimmick I actually liked. 


It's basically Pac-man but with upgraded graphics, cool graphical effects, new music, with different speed and game-play touches. 



It plays pretty well, I just wish companies would do this more often.

It was a freebie from Microsoft, however unlike most free stuff this was pretty good. 





It was a nice little puzzle game. Not exactly the greatest in the world but I enjoyed my time with it.

Such a great idea, Street Fighter II remastered in HD!


It's certainly that, the graphics looked sick!


Even though I think it's tad too hard in single player, it's still a great little game.

The show was okay but I liked the free Xbox Live Arcade game. 


It let "everyone" play at the same time, and sorta did. 




However you will never be picked to be the player. Especially since they cut the game off forever.

It's basically what is sounds like. The infamous card game UNO in Xbox Live Arcade form. You can find other versions for PS3, Wii, iPod Touch, iPhone, DSi and practically every other system made in the past five years.



It plays well with very little bullshit, and the online play work nice. It's really cool that it's a very social game. Most of the people who play do bring a headset along.



I don't mean the guys who RAGE on Xbox Live either. You'll find your fair share of jerks on the game for sure, but this is one game where most players aren't rude.


For the lonely guys, plenty of women play UNO on 360 as well. 


The old game Double Dragon II: The Revenge is coming to Xbox Live Arcade in a new remake called Double Dragon II: Wander of the Dragons. A new combo system is in the works, and new artwork as well. It will come out with the price tag of $15.

It's a classic, and even though it's not the greatest game in the world I really think this was the starting point where games got from experimental to "good". 


My favorite version is the Xbox Live Arcade one since I loved trying to get all the achievements.

I played this back when I first got a 360. Why you ask? Because it was basically the only free game on Xbox Live Arcade. 


I don't like games like Gradius, so frankly my expectations weren't high. 


And I was right. It is a boring, and hard side-scrolling shooter.

I never had the chance to play the long-running series until the XBLA version. 


It's kinda like Puyo-Pop meets Tetris. But unlike Puyo-pop, this game is actually fun. 


My favorite thing is the multiplayer, which I can really only do offline now since nobody plays it online anymore. Fuckers.
