Once I started to get my points cards from my wife(Zune cards as promotions from her job) about two weeks ago this is what I bought:

Castlevania: SOTN
Ikaruga
Geometry Wars 2
Uno
TMNT 1989 Arcade Game
1942: Joint Strike
Braid
Carcassone + Rivers II and Barons and Kings Expansions
Pinball FX + Rocky and Bullwinkle and Nightmare Mansion tables
Alien Hominid HD
DOOM
Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo HD Remix
Prince of Persia Classic
Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3

On top of that, I order the Arcade Unplugged Vol. 1 disc off eBay which has:

Geomtery Wars
Outpost Kaloki X
Hardwood Backgammon
Bejeweled 2
Wik: Fable of Souls
Texas Hold 'Em

So yeah I guess you can say this is about all i've been playing. I did manage to sneak in some Kameo in between though. The funny part is I still have like 4000 points left. Too bad you can't gift XBLA games, because i'd love to make a contest or something to rid myself of some of these bothersome points.

I tend to play DOOM, Puzzle Fighter, 1942 and Pinball FX the most lately. Outside of Braid of course which just took up my whole Wednesday and part of my Thursday on Speed Runs.

 

I wish I had a wife....

 

If you really want to get rid of some of those points you could PM me some of the codes. You wouldn't mind helping out some of the financially challenged right?

I found smash TV hard to play compared to recent dual analog stick shooters. If you have sentimental value to those games I suspect you'd like them much. I got Streets of rage 2 for that reason...used to LOVE that game.

Omega 5 was cool...space shooter with kickass graphics.

 

I didn't like the Omega 5 demo very much. The SHMUP work I felt was very sloppy. I want to grab gamerpics of Braid, just because I want to rep for it, so yeah sue me I'm BUYING gamerpics. I was thinking about Catan or Ticket to Ride because I do like Carcassone and maybe Assault Heroes 2. Isn't that a dual analog shooter top down style?

 Assault Heroes 1 I got. 2 i never got around to getting... Part 1 was good...

Another big points drainer for me is rockband. I've probably bought 80 dollars worth of extra songs for it.

Yes,XBLA titles consume most of the time i am playing with my 360.
And with Galaga Legions,Portal: Still Alive,Bionic Commando: Rearmed and maybe Shred Nebula & R-Type Dimensions it is unlikely that this will change in the near future.
