It was a bit surprising to play a radiangames title and not being able to shot anything. It´s Pac-Manish in a way, but a lot more complex – the later levels need you to plan ahead as much as you need gamepad skills. Just have a look at the videoreview.
Another Shooter – I skipped it, but Daizoren gave it a review and maybe I should give it a try. Looks not that bad.
Have I ever mentioned Hypership Out of Control? I guess I did – it´s this game where your Hypership has the small technical difficulty of broken brakes while the acceleration is stuck and you get faster and faster. GameGrump gave the game a great videoreview that most certainly deserves attention – not only for the fact that his speech speed matches the gameplay perfectly.
Crossfire is one of the best shooters this year. It´s an amazing remake of Space Invaders that expands on the original by adding diffent enemy types giving the game a very tactical approach. But it was also one of the tougher games to beat. So Luke from radiangames gave it a little update and also made it one hell of a bargain by dropping the price to just 1$ (80 MSP) in the process (it was already a great bargain at the old price of 3$ though!).
The changes that make the game easier include two modifiers that allow you to up your weapons damage to 2.5 times the original strength or reduce the speed of your enemies. Also the layout of some waves has been changed. For the detailed infos visit radiangames.com.

I already gave the game a videoreview myself, but it is a title that is definately worth mentioning again. So have a look at what Daizoren has to say about Square Off.
I never played the original Old School Racer, but the new title looks like platformer/racer mix – neat, I´m gonna check that one out when it comes out soon (as the trailer says).

Apple Jack is one of the most famous platformers on the Xbox Live Indie Game channels. The graphics might not be much, but the gameplay is great and the music, which you sadly will only hear when you download the game here, is so awesome that most people agree the 80 points would be well invested just for the soundtrack.
Have a look what Daizoren thought of the game.
