This is back when Sonic games were actually something fun to play.

This is an exact remake of the orignal Sega Genesis Sonic The Hedgehog except for the save anywhere feature. This is a fast paced game with a lot of loops and rings. Sonic needs to save all of them cuddly forest animals so go out there and beat Mr Egg Man down!

The game is a real quicky but it is fun to play a classic and then again you can always try and get the quickest times for each level.

For the Achievement junkies out there, If your good at sonic then this should be an easy 200/200, otherwise your gonna have to play some levels over and over.

If you liked the original sonic then this might peek your interest, but if you looking for something new then you need to look elsewhere.

This is one of the best Vehicle Combat games out there. Its an excellent remake of the original.

The single player lets you duke it out in your own death matches or you can do the Story mode to unlock the other vehicles for play. There are all the original power ups and weapons to be found and all of the original maps are here as well. Each vehicle has its own special attack and they come in handy when you find yourself in a tight situation.

The multiplayer is great! You can play with up to 8 people online (4 players split screen) in either versus or co-op modes. There is nothing like demolishing your buddies in a free for all death match.

For the Achievement junkies out there, this game isn't too hard to get 200/200. If you go for total completion then you should get all of the achievements and winning 10 online matches won't be too hard.

This is a great game for the price asked, and anyone who liked the original should definitely buy this one.

If your looking for a good puzzle game then you have found it. This is a free game and everyone should have it since it comes with your 360.

This is strictly a single player game, if your looking for multiplayer then too bad for you. This game has 3 different modes and they are all equally entertaining. Some of the bigger combos like the oysters and black pearls are really tricky to get. The gameplay is addictive and the soundtrack is great.

This game is awesome and it was free so I don't have any complaints.

This game is fun and who wouldn't want to be a pirate or a ninja... or a zombie... or a robot...

The single player in this game is basically playing as each team and beating the others in 2vs2, 3vs3, and 4vs4. Each character from each team has their own special power to use sparingly in game. You can catch, deflect or dodge each ball thrown at you and you in turn can throw and power throw your shots at your opponents. The gameplay is fast paced and you will eventually get the hang of it.

The multiplayer is just as fast paced and even more so now that your going up against real people. You can play with up to 8 players in a 4vs4 match. Go online find a match and show them whose boss.

For the achievement junkies, the single player achievements are pretty easy to get but the multiplayer achievements will take a little of your time.

This game was a great buy and it's still fun to play from time to time even after having it for a while.

Pub Games is worth it if you got it for free with Fable 2. I wouldn't advise dropping 800MS on this game though, it's not worth it.

This game is purely a single player experience. It is a mix of mini games from Fable 2 and they are mostly based upon luck. Think about it as going to the casino, but in this case you don't win any money, just in game gold. You can actually earn gold a lot faster in Fable 2 than in the Pub Games.

For the achievement junkies out there, this game is all luck so if your a lucky person then 200/200 should be easy.

Don't waste your money on this game, just go and rent Fable 2 and enjoy a better experience.

Its Uno Digitized! No more card shuffling for you...

You can choose to play Uno solo if you want with 3 AI opponents but then that would be like playing solitaire wouldn't it? Multiplayer is where its at in this game. Go on to xbox live and challenge the world to a game of Uno!

This game plays exactly like the card game we all know and love and you don't have to fight about not saying uno because you just have to hit the X button now.

For the achievement junkies out there, this is an easy 200/200. Just play uno with some buddies online and you should have all the achievements in a few days.

If anyone is looking for a good card game on the arcade then look no further. This game is great for everyone.

Bomberman Live is everything a bomberman game should be and a little more.

The single player doesn't contain any sort of campaign but you can battle it out with up to 7 other bots. There are plenty of game modes and maps to go around and you have All of the usual power ups and skulls too. They added a lot of custimization for your little bomberman dude as well. As you play you can collect orbs during each match the unlock different costume items you can use for your bomberman.

The multiplayer replaces your bots with 7 players instead which can lead to some pretty intense, fast paced, competitive gameplay. Multiplayer never gets old here.

For the achievement junkies out there, this game will be a bit of a challenge to get 200/200.

This game is a great buy and any bomberman fan should buy this game today. This game is well worth the price tag and already offers some DLC too.

This game is a great buy for anyone looking for a good retro shooter and the price isn't too shabby either.

The single player game is a lengthy 80 levels long and there are few levels that will have you pulling your hair out. I found myself on the edge of my seat plenty of times trying to outlast the hordes of rocket blasting baddies quite a bit in the end. There are a ton of playable characters to unlock throughout the game and you have the choice of changing their secondary color and the reticule color. You will also find power ups throughout each level and the infamous power downs that can be a real nuisance (Avoid the Red ones!). You will also encounter boss battles throughout your journey and some of them are a little tricky to take down.

The multiplayer is lacking. It is not the gameplay itself, but the fact that there seems to be no online community whatsoever. I have yet to play a multiplayer match because I have never found one. The 4 multiplayer modes sound fun but I haven't been able to test them out myself.

For the achievement junkies out there, this game is very frustrating in the end but you can definitely get all of the SP achievements. The multiplayer might be a problem due to a lack of an online community.

This game plays great and I would have given it an 8 if it weren't for the lack of multiplayer matchs. If you have 800MS this is a great buy even without the multiplayer.

Castle Crashers kind of put me off with its high price tag at first but when I finally gave in I was glad.

You can play this game alone and it's crazy fun but it is so much better when you jump into the 4 player coop. There are a good amount of levels to go through and a ton of collectibles/unlockables. There are tons of weapons and pets to find throughout the game and a ton of playable characters to unlock as well. For the collectors out there, this game will give you a lot of bang for you buck. There are a ton of laughs through this game. As the plot unfolds you will find yourself laughing more and more from movie references, the slap stick humor and other things.

There are a few other multiplayer modes that add a little extra to the game but you won't find yourself actually playing that much at all. I won't even bother to mention them because all you really need is the single player/coop.

For you achievement junkies out there, this game is a simple 200/200 until you have to get the 2 online PVP achievements. I think you will only be able to get those achievements boosting or spending a LOT of time trying to get. Your fingers will be aching after those 2.

This game is worth the high price and you will get a lot out of it. If you have 1200MS to spend, this game is a great choice.

This game was one of my favorite originals to hit the arcade and it's still just as fun to play as it was back then.

The single player is everything you can expect from the original with all the same secrets and plenty of babes to find. You can now play 8 player coop throughout the entire game which makes for extra fun. There are plenty of single player levels to blast your way through too as well.The way you die is great too. It basically records everything you do up until death and when you die you can choose to spawn at any point during the clip up until your death. You can save the clip after the level as well for later viewing.

The multiplayer death match's were not what I was expecting. They seem to lack a little but its entertaining for a while. I wouldn't buy this game strictly for the multiplayer if I was you.

For you achievement junkies out there, this game isn't too hard to get 200/200. You will have to spend some time on the multiplayer achievements though.

This game is a great buy for this price. I recommend this game to anyone looking for a decent shooter on arcade.

This is the BEST arcade game I have played to date. Nothing can beat this game right now... nothing.

There is no single player! About the only thing you will find for single player in this game is a tutorial which is actually really good for training yourself. After you complete all the objectives in the tutorial you are free to roam the map and do whatever you wish.

The multiplayer is all you need for this game. 24 players may seem like a giant cut back from the PC's original 64 but they were able to tweak the game and the maps to make it all work like cake and we all know that cake is good. There are a total of 4 maps to choose from which were all taken from the original and revamped with the frostbite engine making these maps beautiful masterpieces of mayhem. There is the all time favorite Wake Island, and then Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal and the community unlocked Coral Sea. There seems to be promise of more maps being released either as community unlocks or DLC, we will see when the time comes.

They have also included Squad support in the game. You can form squads with you buddies or you can join open squads which both give you some tactical advantages such as being able to spawn on your squad mates to get right back in the battle. You also get ranked at the end of each game not only by individuals and teams but by squads as well.

Now the graphics and sound effects really shine through in this game. The graphics and sound make this game THE best looking arcade title out there to date. The frostbite engine is the same engine used in BF:BC so this game looks and feels just like a retail title. And then to add to everything else that is so wonderful, they made the environment destructible just like in BF:BC! No more hiding behind walls because it just might not be there in a few seconds.

Now as far as the gameplay goes, you get to choose from 3 classes. There is the Rifleman, the Infantry, and the Scout. The rifleman is good for mid-range combat. They come equipped with a semi-auto rifle, grenade launcher, grenades, and a bayonet. The Infantry is good for close-range combat. They come equipped with a sub-machine gun, rocket launcher, hand grenades, and a wrench which can be used as melee or for repairing vehicles. The Scout is the best for long-range combat. They come equipped with a Sniper rifle, pistol, explosive charges, and bayonet (the Japanese get a Samurai Sword!).

There are no health packs or ammo crates because your health slowly recharges if you don't take any damage and everyone has unlimited ammo. You may think this is crazy but it actually works really well.

You have all the standard vehicles for combat. Land vehicles consist of light tanks with a driver position and a gunner position. Jeeps with a driver, passenger, and gunner. Then there's also your stationary AA guns. Your Air vehicles were a choice from either the Japanese Zero or the American Corsair which would only accommodate a pilot but that's all you need. The Sea vehicles are mostly just the landing craft able to hold 4 passengers a driver and a gunner. You can also use the AA guns on the aircraft carriers but that's it.

All of the vehicles are smooth rides except for the flying. They really killed the flying controls in this one. I could fly like an ace in 1942 but now I'm lucky if I get more than 2 kills before I die every time I fly. It really sucks because flying was one of the coolest aspects in 1942. All I can say is keep practicing flying and we might be able to get the hang of it somehow.

All in all, this game is the best one out there and the high price is well worth it people. This looks and feels as good as a retail and its priced a lot lower. If you have 1200MS go and buy this game now. I would have given this a 10/10 if it weren't for the choppy flying controls. Its still worth every penny though! (well maybe minus 1 penny for the flying lol).

This game is even better than the first game! Just when you thought that things couldn't get any better. Worms 2 One ups Worms in every category.

The single player has actually been turned into a 30 mission campaign with a bonus of 5 unlockable missions as well. The missions aren't all just about killing the other team off either. They throw in some pretty interesting challenges now that make you really have to think. Your going to find yourself getting stuck on quite a few levels but if you stick it out you can make it to the end. There are a ton of new weapons to use as well including the Armageddon weapon which basically kills all of the worms on the map unless you get lucky lol.

The added even more customization options as well. The voice bank has been increased with voices such as the Movie Trailer Voice and there are more gravestones to choose from. They also add victory dances to choose from and hats to put on your worms :D. You can even change the skin tone of your worms. And you can choose what fort you have in the new fort mode.

The Multiplayer still has 4 players pitting up against each other with teams of 4 worms. You can create your own game mode or choose from a few new ones like Fort, Crazy Crates, and Rope Racing. Your still blowing the crap out of worms and its still fun.

For the achievement junkies out there, this one will take more time than the original to max. The hardest achievement is going to be Ranked Master which you have to get 17 wins in 4 different ranked match types. All the other achievements are fairly simple and beating the campaign can be a real pain in the butt but its doable.

So if you liked worms you will love worms 2! 800MS is not a waste on so many improvements to a game that a lot of people loved.

I just want to add an extra note, There is a very nasty glitch in the game that you should be aware of. It has to do something with playing the game connected to live and then playing it not connected to live. Basically when you first start the game it offers you the tutorial. If you ever open the game again after playing and it pops up saying you need the tutorial again... Turn off your system right away! If you continue playing you will lose all of your saved progress! Just load it up again and you should be fine. Look at the xbox forums for my info on that glitch.

Worms is a great game for anyone looking for some action/strategy and some good laughs. I found that playing this game with my buddies in the same room was the best recipe for fun.

Worms single player provides the you with 20 challenges that are pretty easy in the beginning but get a lot harder in the end but it's definitely nothing you can't handle. The game also provides you with some customization options for your worms as well. You can name your team and each individual worm and you can choose their voices from a decent voice bank with voices such as the Angry Scots. You also get to choose which gravestone they get when they meet their terrible(but oh so funny) end "Oh Noes!".

Worms throws in some multiplayer mayhem as well. You can put up to 4 teams of worms on the battlefield at one time to see which team is the top worm. You can either go online to find more worm prey or get a few buddies and play on the same screen. Either way you look at it, its going to be 4 players blowing the crap out of 16 worms and plenty of laughs to go along with it.

For all you achievements junkies out there, this is an easy 200/200 arcade title. All of the single player achievements are attainable by playing all 20 challenges. The last few challenges might take a few tries but its nothing you can't handle. The multiplayer achievement is a simple play a game with 4 people win or lose.

This game will make a great addition to your arcade collection and it won't take a huge chunk from your MS wallet either. Now go blow up some worms!

Madballs Babo invasion is an awesome game! I recommend this game to anyone looking for a good action shooter with multiplayer and coop support. It doesnt have a crazy price tag either, its only 800MS.

The single player campaign is decent with 10 levels that you will have to play twice to unlock everything (playing as both factions). You can play again to get higher scores as well or play some 4 player coop. There are also hidden books/secrets through out the game that you can collect for an achievement.

The multiplayer is a blast! You really don't have to be crazy good to be decent in the game online. Just blast away and you'll get some kills. Word of advice though... unlock everything in single player or coop first, because you cant use weapons or characters in multiplayer until you have unlocked them. The game supports up to 16 player mayhem with plenty of different modes such as deathmatch, capture the flag, and a neat power node game to name a few.

Another neat feature is the avatar support. They have an avatar mode online where you play as your very own avatars head! The process of reducing your avatar to a rolling head is pretty funny too.

For all of those achievement junkies out there, it really isnt too hard to get all the achievements in this game. I believe the ranking up online will take the longest but even then its very doable.

So if you have 800MS to spend, you should definitely check out Madballs. Download the demo and give it a roll. I bet you won't be disappointed.
