sigh another puzzle-platformer. I really am tired of them.

You haven't even played it yet...don't judge it.

I'm just saying we have, or at least I certainly have more than enough to satisfy me right now, and probably for the rest of the decade. I just wish more good games would branch out to different genres...without being horrifically priced.

It's pretty nifty to be sure. I'm not sure about the other Win7 Phones, but ilomilo came free on my Samsung Focus (AT&T) so if any of you have jumped on the "early adopter" band wagon for Win7Pho, then check your phone.

The cutesy style turned me off of ilomilo at first but it really is a pretty great game.

Cutesy style is nothing to be afraid of or Kirby's Epic Yarn and Little Big Planet wouldn't have been touched...Both cutesy and both great games.

I really am tired of puzzle games. And remakes and half-assed sequels. Are there any recent original XBLA games that are any good without involving flippin' puzzles?

Some peeps I know swear Raskulls is a pretty fun game. I wasn't a fan, but it seems to have good reviews.

Cool, I'll be sure to check that out.

BTW, off topic, but do you have a Steam name?

Probably. I still haven't tried it, though. I'll make a list.

Nope. I've been using my roommates account but I really need one of my own. I think I'll hop on that this weekend.

Raskulls was kind of fun as I played the demo, but I didn't really care for it basically being speed runs the entire game.

XBLA is the reason I actually like my xbox 360! Scott pilgrim vs. the world and super meat boy are definitely the best games on the service for me. I must have played through Scott pilgrim at least 15 times by now. Can't get enough of that music and multiplayer may-hem. Super Meat Boy is just addicting! Every time i play it's always "one more time. I'm gonna win this time!" Then I look at the clock and its been an hour since I said that.
I love downloading demos too. :3

There's the potential to have this game at discount in the coming week(s) as it is currently part of the "vote for the discounted game" thing that MS is doing on the Dashboard.

Picked up Hydrophobia today -- it's on sale for 400 pts this week. Very cool game; amazing graphics.

If you own a 360 and don't own Super Meat Boy AND Limbo then you should be ashamed of yourself

@Mickeymac... I honestly am right there with you. I refuse to suffer through another Braid or platform/puzzle/time-bending/wannabe everything/etc I'm going to throw a hissy fit that nobody will care about but me, and I will probably then feel a bit better and play another one, and repeat the cycle.

Some great PSN games I've played recently.

Dead Space Extraction
Scott Pilgrim
Deathspank
Tumble
Modern Combat Domination
Dead Nation

Square-Enix is bringing Final Fantasy V from their 1999 PSOne Final Fantasy Anthology release (contained FF V, FF VI and a CD with music from both) to PSN.

This release of it was the first time FF V saw the light of day outside of Japan. Glad to see the holes in the Final Fantasy series on PSOne available on PSN being filled. And I'm happy to see that Squeenix is still thinking of FF V. Maybe they're trying to put the game back in people's consciousness, for a future remake on PSP/NGP or 3DS? Me hopes so. Time for more Butz!
