Yeah, I'm a huge fan of XBLA -- or, rather, I was back when I had the money to actually partake in the damned thing I've got a tasty list of titles I wanna get stuck into as soon as I can acquire them
While I agree with the SENTIMENT you're making, I still think the 2GB limit is rubbish and is holding back a lot of what developers could do. Enforcing a limit should, in theory, make developers concentrate more on the gameplay rather than filling it up with BIKs and graphical features.... but still... it's 2012 and most 360 gamers have 120GB++ HDDs now. That 2GB limit really needs to be increased
When I finally get a glitched machine (mine is fully updated now, so glitching is impossible and it seems nobody has beaten MS's new encryption.. oh hai JTAG scene!) I'm going to have a huge drive and fill it with XBLA catalogue. Should keep me going for... say.. a decade of so

Well i have 250gb hdd, but think this 2gb limit is fine. Hell, do you guys remember some old XBLA's like Bionic Commando Rearmed? It was around 300mb with a lot of varied levels and enemies. Developers can achieve a lot with 2gb, as long as they want.
Looks like Microsoft is going to get rid of the 2gb limit for XBLA games. Todays's game Red Johnson is 2.7gb. Double Dragon Neon is little over 2gb as well. Enjoy @sabin.
Wait Red Johnson's Chronicles is on XBLA now? I had plans of picking it up on the PS3 like a year back, but the flood of titles just kept me from getting the game. Can someone, who has played this title, comment if it's worth a shot?
The gameplay will never match the original title, even the gameplay vids make it look slow and lumbering due to the "3D makeover" --- but at least the soundtrack kicks ass. I love Virt's music, the guy is a legend
It is a shame it's not coming to PC though, I'd definitely like to at least check it out. I have a LOT of childhood memories about DD with my brother, much like I suspect
