The history of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is now so complicated that every time I tell it I contradict myself, and whenever I do get it right I'm misquoted. So the publication of this omnibus edition seemed like a good opportunity to set the record straight--or at least firmly crooked.

I got some extra MS Points. I need suggestions for good games to download from Arcade since there's so Goddamn many.

Anyone?

Anyway, it's a dread that nobody knows the name for, like those little square plastic gizmos that close your bread bags. I don't know the name for those either."

Depends on what kind of games you like, but for pure value:
Ikaruga
Rez
Castlevania : Symphony of the Night

All 8$ apiece.  I'd recommend more, but I'm not really sure what you're looking for.

Geometry Wars.
Castlefuckingvania.
Rez.
Ikaruga.
Omega Five.
Bomberman.
Exit.
Aegis Wing.
N+.
Puzzle Quest.

Those are my "cream of the crop" titles, but I may have missed a couple. Keep an eye on Bionic Commando Rearmed, too.

edit:
Eusis' idea. Pac Man Championship. Definitely in the top ten best of XBLA.

Castlevania's graphics have been improved. It's still the same game, but I can only see that as more incentive to buy it.

Castlevania's got nothing new but achievements and replacing the ending vocal with some Lament of Innocence song (I think) so that's going to be far from my top suggestion. Most of the good recommendations have already been made, but Pac Man Championship Edition is well loved and reportedly next week we'll see Bionic Commando Rearmed.
