Shadow Complex

Downloaded this game off Xbox Live Arcade today and its awesome. 2D Metroid-style platformer/shooter but with next-gen graphics. I don't think I'm that far in it, but so far I love it. Although its quite linear, the game world is pretty big and there is a big emphasis on exploration (even when the goal is of the "HURRY BEFORE SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS" variety). Only real gripe is that the story sucks, but its not the point of the game.

I see occasional banner ads for it on this site. Does anyone else have it?

Sorry, the developers are Mormon and hired Orson Scott Card so I'm boycotting it because blacks and Hispanics voted against Prop 8.

i only downloaded the trial last week, it seemed really fun, but I dont think im going to shell out 15 bucks for it

I'm about six hours in, and probably pretty close to the end, but I'm pretty impressed with how long this game has lasted. some full-price 360 games (sadly) don't have this much content. Can't wait to go through it again on a harder difficulty and do the mission packs. Best XBLA I've played so far. Hyper-speed is sick.
