Shadow Complex

I'm not sure how many of our few (probably none) readers have an Xbox 360 and are familiar with XBLA. Thats Xbox Live Arcade to you NON-cool people.

Either way, the new game from Epic has just been released, Shadow Complex. It's probably the greatest game to ever come from XBLA apart from The Secret Of Monkey Island. It's a wierd 3D-ish 2D side scrolling shooter. It's highly addictive, my first playthrough has taken me 9 hours. Yet i'm still going back for me. Yes, this really does declare how sad and nerdy I am but I am already aware and comfortable of that fact.

One thing I really don't understand is this. The other developer for the game was Chair. The people behind....Undertow one of the worst XBLA games ever, so bad it was given out for free when xbox live went down for a day. I wouldn't let somebody pay me to finish that game. It's terrible.

So when the infamous Cliffy B of Epic Games said we were excited to work with Chair after playing Undertow, you start to question their sanity. I guess they have redeemed themselves though, Shadow Complex is great.
