Not sure how many people here are gold members of xbox live but if you are you can get Shadow Complex for $10 instead of $15 this week.

It is called a Metroidvania game due the the 2d view and exploration of Metroid and Castlevania games. Also interesting is that the bad guys are left wing nut jobs trying to start a civil war instead of the typical George Bush trying to steal someones oil and evil Republicans/human race trying to destroy the earth/universe. Have not played the game myself so the left wing nut jobs may turn out to be wrongly vilified heroes in the end.

Speaking of that, anyone knows of any good deals for gold memberships right now?

Check slickdeals.net regularly. I have seen a 12 month subscription for $30 two or three times this month. That is the best price I find most of the time. I did see it for $25 once but that was like 15 months ago.

This game kicks so much ass.

As mention above it is an exploration type game where you collect power ups and items that let you progress thought blocked off areas throughout the map.

There is a lot of backtracking which pisses some people off but it doesn't bother me.

My only beef is that it is only available through downloads so you can't sell/trade the game later.

The game is worth more then the $15 they charge and the $10 I paid for it but again being that I can't do anything with it when I am done I wouldn't have paid more then $10.
