Are you only looking for new releases? If not I'd recommend Shadow Complex, it's one of my favourite games. Outland is cool, too.

Castle Crashers is fun if you can get some friends to get it with you.

metal slug 2 is good, but 3 is better.

Welcome to the escapist!

some of my favorites from XBLA:

-Bastion (seriously buy this if you haven't!)
-Limbo (not my favorite but still interesting)
-Costume Quest (funny and neat little RPG made by double fine)
-Castle Crashers (more fun with friends but still a decent game)
-Shadow Complex (Metroid for the XBLA, great game)

There is also Stacked, which looks good but I haven't bought it so I can't really review it.

Just don't buy the contra games, no Konami code makes those games way too difficult to beat.

Wait for Friday, they will release fez, an indie puzzle platformer
