After buying Shadow Complex(Fantastic game, by the way. If you haven't bought it, do so now. I don't care if you don't have a 360... you need to play this game) I have 1000 spare MS points, and I can't decide what to buy. These are the games I've been considering:

Bionic Commando: Rearmed
'Splosion Man
Geometry Wars 2
Garou: Mark of the Wolves
One of the Fallout 3 DLCs
One of the Fable II DLCs

I'm kinda tired of Fallout 3 and Fable II though -- I've spent tons of hours on both -- so unless their DLC is a breath of fresh air, I'm not really interested.

So, fellow GiantBomb forum dwellers, what should I get?

I bought Mothership Zeta earlier and it is alright, nothing special so far. However I heard Point Lookout is supposed to be great, but I have yet to buy that

Edit: nevermind, just saw you only have 1000 MSP. Hang on...

Big Surf Island is pretty good and is exactly 1000 MSP, but you might feel a little disappointed unless you really like Burnout's core gameplay.

Splosion Man, unless you nostalgic for Bionic Commando then get Rearmed.

Don't go with the F3 dlc is just all the same thing and it doesn't last long. Geowars 2 is fun for a bit but gets a little boring around day 2. I would recommend splosion man because its a well made, goofy platformer with a ton of content and easy acheiveables. Another god one not listedis Castle crashers; if you don't already have it get it now.
