Shadow Hog

Wasn't this based on an old Flash game? I recall playing one with this same basic concept.

That was a good Flash game. This sounds like a good port of it.

I dunno, there are a lot of pretty awesome games on XBLA. Granted, a lot of my favorites are ports of older games (Banjo-Kazooie, SotN, Radiant Silvergun, Guardian Heroes, Doom 2 etc), but hell, I'm for it.

Kind of wish they didn't have to pull Marble Blast Ultra, though. That was an early favorite of mine.

Oh, so THAT'S the name of the game my little brother is always playing on his Touch.

I suppose I could DL this to my Atrix, although the fact it's "freemium" is a bit off-putting. How, exactly, is it implemented? Is it a TF2-style "the game is totally playable without paying" kind of freemium, or an Evony-style "if you want to do anything of value you'll be ponying up tons of dough" kind of freemium?

Gotta be honest: I wound up reading that third paragraph in Mel Brooks's voice.

MINECRAFT: DA FLAMETHROWAH

Key event: A couple of guys who are up to no good start makin' trouble in the neighborhood.

Custom announcers? That sounds awesome, even to a guy like me who's never played a MOBA/DotA game in his life.

So how long until they inevitably add a TF2 Administrator or GLaDOS announcer?

@Rabite
It's cheaper than the PC version, I'll note.

@Alexisonfire
Fez IS XBLA-exclusive.

@BlueRajasmyk
Real and full, but based on an earlier build of the PC version. Not even sure which build, honestly...

@superbagman
I think his point is that aiming the paint (assuming this mechanic is returning) is going to be much more awkward with an analog stick than it is with a pointer.

Your point about the camera is valid, however.
