^^ you need to ask the author

I'm sure he's already been asked 2000 times by now. I'm guessing it's distributive bias. He left the game off because it's Download only. What he doesn't understand is that a games quality has nothing to do with how its distributed, and the ignorant assumption that a game is somehow inferior simply because it was downloaded rather than inserted shows a complete lack of understanding concerning the simplest laws of physics.

I agree, some XBLA games are far better than retail games, Braid is one of the best releases this gen. Maybe he just forgot about Downloadable games because not many high profile ones are coming out? ...

He posted Gay Tony, which despite retail release(I assume) is a DLC at heart. Shadow Complex is probably the biggest new IP released as a DLC(with Braid as the possible exception).

How could he forget that?

I'd have also liked to see Flower, Fat Princess, Splosion Man, Mothership Zeta, and a few others with at least honorable mention...but jeez. He leaves out Shadow Complex? What kind of "videogame reporter" is this? Such a startling omission.
