Continuing the trend of quantity over quality, BlowOut has been named as the latest Xbox Originals release. As of today, the run and gun can be purchased for the absurd price of $15 (or, 1200 Microsoft Points).
I guess you could call BlowOut a poor man’s Contra, but it’s almost criminal to have it mentioned in the same sentence as such a beloved classic.
Believe it or not, I’ve never been to a GameStop without seeing BlowOut in the used game section. Granted, I do most of my shopping online these days, but I bet if I were to call up my nearest store and ask if they had a copy of BlowOut, they’d say yes and proceed to laugh at me for asking such a silly question.
Since it’s reasonable to assume most of you are not interested in getting today’s Xbox Original, what game above all others would you love to see appear on the service?
