Best 400 MS Point Xbox Live Arcade games

Post by Niode »

I want to know your opinions on what are the best 400 MS point XBLA games.

I already have Marble Blast Ultra and thought that was great.

Weapon of Choice. Picture Contra meets... uh, pscilocibin.


It's actually grouped with the Community Games, but don't let that scare you off. It's sort of a diamond in the rough.

Small Arms is fun. I like Galaga too.

Man, there used to be so many 400 point games released. Now nothing but 1200 points and the odd 800. Damn inflation.

Good idea. Off the top of my head, could be wrong about the price on some:

Doom
Dig-Dug
Golden Axe
TMNT
Streets of Rage 2

I don't have Weapon of Choice, but the demo was cool. You should look at it. I love the Doom port, but you can get it anywhere.

I don't see the point in Doom. I have it for about 3 different platforms though, including the original DOS version on floppy disc.

I don't think I have it for anything else right now although I used to play it on a PC back in the shareware days. It's kind of fun to play it with achievements and leaderboards and such. I get most of my MS points from sales and stuff so I'll pick up just about anything in the 400 point range.

Some Community games you should try out:

Blow (really good)

Groov (really good too, copied Geometry Wars.. but copied it so well, love the music in this game)

Machiavelli's Ascent (interesting at the very least).

Grab the demos now!

Really thinking about getting this. Liked the demo, but haven't tried it again since they upped the limit from 4 minutes to 8.
