Summer of Arcade 2012 - Uninstall - 08-23-2012 06:37 AM

I don't know about you but I think Dust is one of the best arcade games released. Sure, it's one for the furries, cliche story and has terrible voice acting but the game-play and hand painted backgrounds are stunning.

It's like a 2D Devil May Cry but without riding any missiles. I'm only half way through myself but I had to force myself to play 1 hour sessions otherwise I am gonna get carried away and complete the whole game.

Anyone else got anything to say about this years Summer of Arcade?

I've stopped myself from looking at this years Summer of Arcade. I want so many of those games but I have no munchas at the moment. Dust looks....so good.

I picked up Tony Hawk, which is good, not as great as I wanted it to be, but it's a start.

I also picked up Dust, and like the OP, I think it's one of the best XBLA games out there. Plenty to explore and do with a fun art style. I suggest people avoid Hybrid and Wreckateer at all costs.

Apparently Deadlight isn't as good as everyone hoped. Slightly over hyped. D:
Was looking forward to that too.

I played Deadlight over a friends house. It certainly wasn't worth the money, nor the hype but it's a solid game from what I played. I'd say it's worth it when an offer comes up.
