We reported on the release date for Castlevania: Harmony of Despair earlier today, and now we have dates for the remaining 2010 "Summer of Arcade" titles. They put Limbo first in line! Hooray!
As revealed during E3, all games are priced at $15 each. For once, I think every title warrants it. Also returning from previous years is the ability to get money back for buying these games during the promotional phase.
Purchasing three of the aforementioned Xbox LIVE Arcade games gets you $5 back, while downloading every last one earns you $15. That's literally all the convincing I need to grab the entire line-up. Which, if any, are you planning to get?
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Getting everything except Lara Croft.
Looks like a shallow platformer.
So far Limbo is the only for-sure purchase for me. I'm interested in Castlevania, but the rest of those games will have to try a little bit harder to impress me.
Oh nostalgia, I love you.
Ideas aren't enough, anymore. Ideas are everywhere, for free. The idea has to be done to perfection. And I don't know if I see it.
I'm sad no Shank or Adventures of Captain Smiley on here. Ah well, the rest look pretty good.
Oh and should have had a Limbo demo during the Press Conference, Microsoft. Just saying.
Yeah, where is Shank?
Something about that new Hydro Thunder, though...it just doesn't look as quite as awesome as the first one. Hopefully I will be pleasantly surprised.
Also, obligatory Limbo love. The atmosphere looks amazing; it beter not turn out to be a shitty platformer.
