Quick Impressions - Shadow Complex

Shadow Complex is an XBLA exclusive game from Chair Entertainment.
I haven't completed the game yet, however, I can already say that this is the best offering on the service to date. It does a lot of things right. The graphics look fantastic, the gameplay is tight and rewarding, and it's the right price.
Pros:
Graphics: The game looks great, some of the cut scenes with facial close ups aren't the best, but for it really looks great otherwise
Gameplay: The gameplay of Shadow Complex is in a 2.5D style however, what makes it different from the Metroidvania style games is that there are enemies in both the background and foreground. Another great aspect of the gameplay is pacing of the game, it isn't a difficult game, however, it rewards you on a regular basis with weapon and suit upgrades.
Price: This feels close to a full-fledged however, it has a low bargain price of $15 or 1200 Microsoft space bucks
Cons:
So far none.
I think that if you have an Xbox, you need to download this game! Let me know in the comments if you've enjoyed the game, and what you think about it so far.
