From Dust is looking kinda interesting, but I haven't seen all that much about it yet, really. I thoroughly enjoyed Bastion, but am a little unsure about the rest of this year's lineup. What games are you looking forward to on the marketplace?
Post some clips here of upcoming Summer of Arcade games, if you want!

Summer of Arcade: Are you excited about the remaining games?
Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet looks amazing and From Dust looks to be a great return to the God sim genre, though I'm sure that's one that'll be better on the PC.
Toy Soldiers I'm not so excited about though, I would have much preferred to see Trenched on that spot (we're still waiting for it in Europe!).. and Fruit Ninja has no place on the Xbox period.
Oh wow, totally forgot about Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet. I didn't really even look at the arcade advert on my dashboard, hah.Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet looks amazing and From Dust looks to be a great return to the God sim genre, though I'm sure that's one that'll be better on the PC.

Hopefully that turns out to be a good buy. It looks very Pixel-Junk Shooteresque.
Dunno if I'll actually buy it on release day like I did with Bastion, though.
I did. Like, honestly, I feel bad about it. :( Gotta cover my tracks!@iDarktread:
I wonder if you made this thread just to cover up spoilers? dohohohohohohoho ;3
But really though, I am curious to see if anyone is is sorta unsatisfied with this year's Summer of Arcade, as a whole. Sogeman's with me!

Dohoho, I knew it!
I have seen PLENTY of people who are very unsatisfied with the Summer of Arcade lineup this year.
Last year had... Limbo, Guardian of Light, and Monday Night Combat, I think. I don't really like MNC (got it as a Steam gift a little while ago) but Guardian of Light is pretty decent so far. Limbo is really great.
Oh well, Bastion might be it for me this year.
Incredibly excited for both From Dust and Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet.
Bastion and From Dust are the two for me this year.
Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet looks good, but seeing as I still haven't wrapped the excellent (and largely overlooked) Outland, I don't think I need another Metroidvania game at the moment.
I was going to get Fruit Ninja as a little Kinect Toy but since it's coming free with Gunstringer, I'll take a pass.
Toy Soldiers didn't look appealing the first time, still doesn't look great and I love me some Tower Defense.
To top it all Crimson Alliance doesn't look that good, on paper it sounds great, but when I went to watch some game play vids I became pretty disinterested.
