Ok gamers. What are the MUST HAVE arcade titles on this list?
I’ve played Limbo, Shadow Complex, Lara Croft, Braid, all the best, but I’ve never heard of any of these. Too busy at work to research.
Thanks yo!

Last I checked the Summer Of Arcade starts with Bastion next week, not this week with Ms. Splosion Man, it was mentioned at the e3 briefing but it wasn’t officially classed as part of SoA.

Why is not “From Dust” on the list? Wasn’t it supposed to be released on July 27th? I thought it was part of the Summer of Arcade…

@6 yup, it was. I was talking about it to a friend yesterday and we both knew it was summer of Arcade and July 27th… I wonder if this is either to do with the fact it’s also coming out on PS3 and PC or if there’s been a genuine delay.
Of course it could just be a mistake… please let it be a mistake.
