This week on XBLA (11/01/12)
Apologies for the lack of updates over the past few weeks. Hopefully I'll be doing this again on a regular basis, laptop committing. Anyway....on with the show.

Amy is launching for a surprisingly decent price of 800 points.
Choplifter HD
Choplifter is launching for a price of 1200 points.
Pretty sure those prices should be the other way around.

Amy
The game takes place in December 2034 when the gradual effects of global warming have spread diseases and natural disasters around the world. Amid this bleak scenario, the small town of Silver City in the USA’s Midwest suffers a near cataclysmic incident when it is stuck by an unidentified ‘comet’ from outer space. When lead character Lana regains consciousness, her world has descended into mayhem. Violent outbursts, fury, rage, wreckage and death; the world she knew seems to have become a living hell. As if struck by a mysterious virus, most of the people she once knew have now become part of a wild horde. Despite her wounds, Lana must run as far as possible to escape this nightmare. The viral process has also begun inside her but she refuses to become one of them. The presence of Amy, an enigmatic eight-year-old autistic girl with strange powers, who seems defenseless, will force her to make choices that will change both their lives. Both Lana and Amy will have to trust and help each other to escape various pursuers who take the form of infected humans, grisly creatures, military Special Forces and even other survivors.
Amy is launching for a surprisingly decent price of 800 points.
Choplifter HD
In Choplifter HD™, players take on the role of an up and coming rescue pilot asked to join the elite, international helicopter rescue team. Pilots will be trained to command a variety of helicopters deployed on more than 30 different missions. Combining reality with elements of fantasy, missions will range from captured military prisoner extraction to saving survivors of viral outbreaks. Pilots must bank, hover, touch-down and sometimes even shake zombies from their chopper during lift-off in order to make their rescue and complete their mission. Developed and published by inXile Entertainment, Choplifter HD™ dares players to risk their lives in order to save others.
Choplifter is launching for a price of 1200 points.

Re: This week on XBLA (11/01/12)
I bought Amy and am really enjoying it so far. It's like an old school PS2 survival horror but for 800 msp I wasn't exactly expecting anything ground breaking. It's creepy and has a few interesting gameplay mechanics. I recommend people at least try the trial if it sounds like your sort of thing.
Plus it seems like it'll be an easy completion. You just have to do it on hard and most of the achievements are story related.
