    It doesn't get rave reviews for nothing, yeah it's a blast, after a while the game just plays itself you are pushing the buttons but your perception is one step ahead, you just do it. Funny detail, those carrotblitzbrigades at Peta made Super Tofu Boy because because ehhhhhhh it's Peta. Ah well but Tofu boy is apparently in the latest version as a total weakling

    Yeah, this has had rave reviews but I've been too much of a boring git to play platformers since the last 10 years or so.

    I've found it pretty average. Fun if you don't mind the frustration factor which is extremely high at times.

    That's a pity, MANY great 2D platforming lately. Every gamer should play Braid, brilliant little game, not frustrating gameplay-wise but awesome puzzles that are really ingenious. Shame I don't have an xbox Shadow Complex is supposedly the mana of the gods for Metroid fans.

    Yup, I bought the game during it's introductory period on XBLA after clearing the demo.

    There's alot of content to get your teeth into and the range of 'indie' characters you can play with is a nice touch, though unlocking some of them is frustrating; I still haven't completed it fully though, I've got one level left to do before I can do the final fight, just can't clear it. >.<
