Tell me what I should spend them on please, and no, no puzzle games, and no castle crashers, what is the best of the best from the XBLA?

I hear Battlefield 1943 is quite good.

Seconded. Had a hell of a time on this. I'd definitely recommend it. If you're quick, you may still get it at discount price.

You should really go look up some games (read reviews, etc.), and see what you think looks good enough to spend your points on.

I dunno. An 83/100 is pretty good, in my opinion. [http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/xbox360/battlefield1943?q=battlefield%201943]

I thought it was decent

Although I suggest Castle Crashers
*Re-reads*
Alien Hominid?

Very much agree with this, it will keep you entertained for a while. And if you're going to be in battlefield games, you should get the Battlefield Bad Company 2 demo while you're at it, it's quite fun.

TMNT Turtles in Time Re-shelled. Twas major awesomeness. If you liked the original genesis version than you'll like this one just as much

 

[grimsprice]

"The Dishwasher"

Dude, seriously, check it out. Fun as hell.

 

[Hazy]

Alien Hominid?

Oooh!
This too!

A marvel of run and gun shooters.

DuplicateValue is right. Tell us what your preferred genre is. Some of the best games are part puzzle, but still really good and challenging. Everyone has their preferences. I would recommend Braid, Chime and/or the newly released "Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom." Oh, and you can't go wrong with Portal.

Banjo Kazooie & Tooie, if you like platformers. I used to own a Nintendo 64, so it was great getting to play those games again. Maybe DLC for some games you own? Possibly GTA San Andreas, i enjoyed that one the most (Xbox classics)

 

[laststandman]

Geometry Wars Retro Evolved. seriously you can't go wrong with it

You can. It's too hard.

 

[T3h Merc]

Alien Hominid will make you happy and provide you old-skool pants shitttingly difficult arcade gameplay. It's also funny as hell.

 

[Jojo1378]

I was actually debating whether or not to get shadow complex, I played the demo and it was pretty fun

For some reason, as soon as I read the thread title, I put it into the song "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath. I Have Microsoft Points de ne ne na nana nan naht na.

On a more useful side note, I reccomend Battlefield 1943. Only a few maps, yet quite good, but only for once a week style stuff or it'll get boring.
