Check Xbox.com/summerofarcade for more details and look out for the first Summer of Arcade game - Limbo - on July 21.

Eurogamer give Limbo 9/10 - looks like it'll be worth checking out. Is it worthy of making it's way to the top of the games mountain I have to plow through? I think I'll do my usual and wait for it to be on Deal of the Week!

Yeah limbo does look really cool, I'm tempted to pick it up but I do have a mountain of games to get through so I may put it on the back burner for a while, looks like the kind of game which is perfect for a rainy sunday afternoon
