Another cool game on Xbox Game Pass is Shadow Complex remastered a platform-adventure video game developed by Chair Entertainment in association with Epic Games and published by Microsoft Game Studios for the Xbox 360 through Xbox Live Arcade. The game was released worldwide on August 19, 2009. Then it was remastered for the Xbox One. Keith quite enjoyed this game and wanted Dave to give it a shot.

There was once a game called Advent Rising. It was hyped up as the next great science-fiction adventure that would transcend games and become something more. Unfortunately, it released in 2005 with a multitude of bugs in an era where patching post-release was a rarity at best. Advent Rising caused the implosion of its development studio, GlyphX Games. A group of individual developers escaped the studio's downfall, banding together to form Chair Entertainment. The newly minted indie studio went on to develop and release Shadow Complex in 2009.  The 2.5D metroidvania side-scroller adopted a more realistic aesthetic and spawned a series of novels authored by Orson Scott Card. The game released and seemed to fill a niche in the indie gaming world that hadn't been filled in quite that same way before. With a recent remaster, it seems like a perfect time to ask the question: Is Shadow Complex one of the best games period?

I think we have a crush on Nolan North. So far, we have reviewed three games in a row with Nolan North as the main protagonist. What can we say? We like the guy. In this side-scroller, shoot ’em up – Shadow Complex, harkens back to the golden 16-bit era. Its primarily influences are Super Metroid and Castlevania: Symphony of The Night. One member has never played this type of game, the other absolutely loves it, and the other feels a bit underwhelmed with his experience of the game. Unfortunately, the fourth member was MIA. *sad face* However, we will make sure to get his input in the next episode. Listen and enjoy as we talk about Epic Games’ entry within the XBLA market.
