I've gone for peggle on the Mrs' behalf. She loved that game. Bad move by me because I couldn't get on my Xbox
The game I enjoyed this year that I downloaded. Was a soccer quiz game called Football Genius. Great fan, for quiz fanatics and football fans. Improved my knowledge of football, even before I was born.

Peggle was an amazing game and the transition from PC (where it started) to Xbox was seamless. I remember I downloaded it on a whim one Sunday morning. I had nothing to do for the next couple hours and figured why the hell not. I played that game all morning, then my fiance woke up...and she played the hell out of it. Back then though, I played world of warcraft, so I just hopped on the PC while she played the xbox.

SPLOSION MAN!!! I absolutely love this game, I have only downloaded the trial so far but im hooked, im about to go grab some MS points and download the full game. It is really fun, the fact that you move by means of exploding is incredible. You can jump up walls and kill little scientists and the expression on your character is at times priceless. I would suggest this game to anyone looking for good, cheap entertainment, even the graphics of this small little game are pretty friggen sweet.

This one was [basically] a three way tie for me. It was between Peggle, Plants vs. Zombies and Monkey Island. Peggle, though, I played back on the PC when The Orange Box came out, so I didn't let it count this time.

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE Monkey Island - the series is my favorite adventure game series of all time - but it was Plants vs. Zombies' re-playability that gave it that edge. It's just so darn adorable.

Did you try shadow complex? I can't remember if you downloaded that or not. As someone who liked Castlevania Symphony of the Night, I would imagine you would love Shadow Complex.

Not yet, actually... I might get some points for Christmas and get it, so that'll be good.
