Download: Decimation X (Xbox LIVE; 80 Microsoft Points)

Booerns of Destructoid on Decimation X: "Probably the Greatest $1 XBL Indie Ever"! Reviews don't get much better than this!

(Links added by me.)

Decimation X is the best value of any indie game I've ever played, and that even includes "I MAED A GAM3 W1TH Z0MB1ES IN IT!!!1".

I should mention that I never really liked Space Invaders, but absolutely fell in love with this game after 10 minutes of play...something to think about.

...the fact that its creators (Jason and Matthew Doucette) managed to take such a contrived, boring videogame convention and make a game that somehow feels fresh and exciting is part of what makes this game so special.

...pretty much anyone can pick up and enjoy the game.

After a few minutes of playing, you'll notice the volume of enemy fire increase from "laughably unthreatening" to "OH MY GOD THE UNSTOPPABLE DOWNPOUR OF LASERS JUST RIPPED THOUGH ALL MY SHIELDS LIKE NOTHING and now I'm dead...".

Between this game and Chime I'm getting some sick play value thanks to XBLA games, been playing more Decimation X than Bioshock 2.

...just wanted to share some info about a game that's been providing me with enormous play-value for only a dollar. Trust me when I say that my description, as well as the images and movies I posted, don't really do this game justice--you need to play it for yourself. If you're a fan of quality minimalist games, man-level difficulty games requiring "mad skillz", or if you just like shooting lots and lots of shit at aliens, you are brain-dead if you don't at least play the trial version of this little gem.
