| Is Swarm something like Lemmings meet Pikmin? |

| Aw no way! I was thinking about getting Swarm last night, but spent my points elsewhere because I only had 600. |

| @4 unfortunately people didn't play blacklight when it was new :( it was a fun game though. If people were playing I'd hop on to finish the last two achievements. |

| Nice, been waiting for Swarm to go on sale and I just grabbed a 1600 card yesterday for Crimson Alliance + DLC. Have just enough for it now. :) |

| Brilliant. I got BLTD for 80MSP (not a typo) on PC, but never started it. I've now just bought this one. It's on my to do list. XD |

For a moment there, I thought Herdy Gerdy had been released on the marketplace :O
Then I saw the context of the reference, and died a little inside :(
That's a game I'd like to be updated tbh... never managed to finish it, but it was a pretty great little game for it's time. Frustrating at parts, but great :)
Have to check some of these out, specifically swarm and NBA JAM :P |

| Always wanted to get Swarm but refused to pay the 1200 points. Glad to see gamers not rolling over and paying these prices on everything that gets released. |

| Already bought Swarm for 400 on DoTW and it was well worht it. Awesome game if a little on a short side. Defo worth $5. Blacklight is a terrible game on the other hand (IMO) and even at 400 I will pass on it=P |

| Swarm is nothing like Pikmin, so if you go into it expecting Pikmin you will be very disappointed (I was) |

Nice might be able to boost 200/200 on Blacklight now then.
Game died out quite a few months ago, last time i played it was when it was on DOTW and you got quite a few noobs trying the trial |

Blacklight shouldn't of been 400MSP. Problem is it's not CoD. Therefore it's apparently bad. It was done by a small group of developers, and it was fun. I played it for about 5 months after it came out, and there was a select bunch of about 30 that played. Once we hit top rank we all stayed a bit because it was genuinely fun. I really regret it's lack of success, it was a good game imo.
Games don't have to be stellar AAA titles for them to be enjoyed and good fun. |

@#19 - I played the demo for Blacklight and I would never have paid $10 or $15 on it. I wouldn't say it was BAD, but it was tough for me to justify that kind of price.
On top of that, it was a multiplayer-centric title and I am primarily a single player kinda guy, so I had to pass on it.
As for not being CoD or a "stellar AAA title", that's a lame attempt at trying to discount people's opinions. I have no interest in Call of Duty titles, but I love shooters and have quite a few, and I have loads of games that I defend that are far from AAA titles that I think are super enjoyable and fun.
I think the game looks far more interesting at $5, though. |

I'd probably get Blacklight but the community is more or less dead I'd imagine.
The sequel, Retribution, is also out soon AFAIK. |

| I wanted Swarm when it came out, but 1200 was a lot. I just spent 1600 on Shuggy (for me) and Peggle (for missus) and I'm also lookin to get Amy or N+ which means its gonna be put on the backburner for a while. |

Always wanted to play swarm, but the demo convinced me that it wasn't worth 1200MSP. 400MSP on the other hand...
Also for all those people that don't have black light tango down, it is worth your 400MSP, i bought it for 1200MSP at release date and i loved the game, i even waited every time an half hour just to find a game, i didn't care because i loved it, and (this is just my opinion but) its better than COD or Battlefield. Only problem, nobody plays it anymore. but maybe after this price-cut it may be awesome again. :D
Also, a sequel? i sure hope its coming to xboxlive arcade then. im paying full price definitely on release date. :D |

| @26 if your torn between the two let me make your choice easy. N+ was easily one of the best arcade experiences ive had to date so at 800 points theres alot to do |

| Blacklight easily deserves a NO buy. the spawn trapping in that game will make you go insane and kill your own family. It is not fun. |

| BLTD was fun when it 1st came out b'cuz ppl actually played its MP.Might have to give Swarm a try but its weird how MS wont announce on the dashboard that some of their XBLA games have been reduced. |

| Blacklight was a good idea, but its very limited and like 29 said, it basically devolves into spawn camping because of the map layouts. It is fun for a while, but it takes a while to level up and because no one plays it, it is likely you won't. |

| Swarm for me i think. I played the trial and after the level finished it prompted me to buy. I just kept pressing Y for 10 minutes, it kept killing blue guys in different ways. Was laughing for ages |
