Has anyone else gotten a chance to play this? Hehe, I doubt it... It just came out today. Shadow Complex is an awesome sidescroller XBLA game.
Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-HvHPz__hw

Pros:
-Pretty Large Diversity of Weapons for such a small game
-Pretty Cheap (15 USD)
-Awesome graphics
-Mixed type of game (Sidescroller/TPS)
-Cool Concept
-Fun!
-Tough but doable Challenge courses
-Good voicing

Cons:
-Campaign can be beaten in less than 2 hrs
-Music's kinda annoying
-Controls are a little odd, I don't know if you can change them
-Animations are weird (It's almost funny when you swim)
-Ragdoll physics are buggy (An enemy can be killed and then their body can randomly contort a minute later, I was awfully confused by it, I thought that the enemies were coming back to life)
-Checkpoints are pretty rare, at one point, I saw a major cutscene, got killed immediately afterwards, and was sent back to where I was about 10 minutes earlier.

Overall, it's a pretty good game. I'd reccommend it. Although, the trial made it seem like a boring game. I give it an 8/10.

I tried the demo out yesterday. Great game. I won't be getting it just yet though as I have a massive backlog of games to complete first.

Yup, it's a great game. The trial doesn't even do it justice, though. It got 5 stars from X-play, which is pretty rare. I think the last game that got that was Littlebigplanet.

Funny that, one of my friends was talking about this today, said it was really good. Too bad I don't have a 360. Guess I'll just have to play Littlebigplanet for my sidescrolling fun!! not that thats a bad thing, by any means. Been playing that game since it came out still love it.
