Game Great - Proving Ground NOT SO MUCH
This is a great game. I started out playing through the Mission which was great. Great control, good story, nice combat, etc. It is a 2D side scroller which gives this game character to my surprise. You can spend ma... Read Full Review

For this genre, you would be hard pressed to find a better game!
This game is deserving of any and all accolades that it has already received. The visuals are simply stunning, and really go a long way in making the game feel much more than the 2-D side-scrolling game that it actually... Read Full Review

Though it has definitely been done before, it is pleasing to see another game of this type in the modern generation.
Comparison is absolutely unavoidable- in terms of gameplay, Shadow Complex is almost a carbon-copy in terms of gameplay, of the 2D-side scrolling Metroid game. Fortunately, it feels less like a rip-off, and more of a gam... Read Full Review

Shadow Complex raises the bar for all downloadable titles.

Bringing the old-school formula of the side-scrolling Metroid back to the living room. Probably the best XBLA game.
In 1994, Super Metroid perfected the 2D side-scrolling formula. It is considered by many people to be one of the best games of all time. So when Chair and Epic announced this game at E3 and marketed it as the "spiritual ... Read Full Review

Never thought I'd give a game with so many problems this high of a rating.
First off, shadow complex is simply just plain fun. Its fun in the same way Rachet and Clank is in that it provides little to no challenge - but still manages to be enjoyable. I think because it is fun, a lot of peo... Read Full Review

This is a game that has broken Xbox Live Arcade download records, download the trial version for yourself and see why.
With the Summer holidays drawing to a close, and Microsoft's Summer of Arcade promotion being over since the middle of August, I think it's time I gave Shadow Complex the glowing review it deserves. Shadow Complex is ... Read Full Review
