As noted last week, this Wednesday's Xbox Live Arcade release is dodgy freefaller Screwjumper, an action game that has you plummeting down a deep, dark hole whilst avoiding slamming headfirst into harmful substances. For 800 MS Points ($10), it's the closest you'll get to experiencing Britney Spears' current career. The folks at Microsoft are also keen to highlight the fact that Screwjumper is XBLA's 100th release since the download service's inception approximately 2 years ago.
Less likely to be remembered is release #99, Shrek N Roll, which promises to test "your tilting and rolling skills," along with your tolerance of the blockbuster trilogy's cast. This puzzling Shrek tie-in will set you back 800 MS Points ($10).
Screwjumper looks fun and challenging. Don't know if I will buy it but I will instead of Shrek.Please stop with the Shrek already. Let the movie franchise die in peace and be remembered as decent instead of crud.
Certainly being released previously on other platforms doesn't make a game bad, but I'm sure you can also see the statement that I'm implying there fellas.
Puzzle Quest is a great game, but its not original and was already out before on other platforms, but thanks for taking me to task on that.
If you haven't heard the 360 is my platform, so I don't know why you'd think I was trolling to begin with.

Guess what? They are planning Shrek 4 for next year. That's the rumor.

Now just think how awful REZ will be on XBLA, what with it being on two other platforms!

@ your ad here: Frozen Codebase developed Screwjumper.
:( I couldn't get the hang of it, but then again I sucked at the parachute levels in Pilot Wings.
