Both. I'll play SMB first though, and then chill out with a bit of CQ once I've reached the "OH MY FUCKING GOD I AM GOING TO TEAR OUT MY EYES!!" stage of frustration from SMB.

" Super meat boy all the way, costume quest looks nice, but it also looks like a game made for little kids so...  Of course that's just my opinion, I won't get neither, I would buy super meat boy, but since they decided to release it for the 360 only and I no longer have one I guess that'll have to wait..... "
It's not a little kids game ffs, people like you are so damn stupid.

I can't get either of them right now, but if I had to choose I would go with Super Meat Boy.  I just love the style and atmosphere of the game.

Both, though I'm waiting for SMB to come to WiiWare (I'd prefer PSN, but apparently that isn't happening) so I can play with a proper d-pad.

@Raymayne: And by saying that, you're basically admitting you're a giant prick. Congratulations.

Costume Quest now so that I can play it while the Halloween vibe is thick in the air... Then Super Meat Boy a little later (probably within the next few weeks.)

I planned for both a while back so luckily I don't have to make that decision.  It is awesome that the team behind Super Meat Boy are putting it on sale for 10 bucks for the first few weeks as a thank you for the support.  That makes it even easier... and Costume Quest looks so ridiculously fun.  That was one of the first QL's I've seen in a while where both guys clearly loved what they were doing from start to finish and had virtually nothing negative to say about it.  They both look like can't misses... and with the 800 points coming back, it's a no brainer for me.

I'm not touching Super Meat Boy with anything resembling a 360 controller, pure digital seems like the only logical course of action, so I'll wait for the Wii or Steam (keyboard) version of that game. So Costume Quest it is.

Both seem cool but I have to go with Wardrobe Adventure, since I has no Xbox. 
 
I probably won't have time to play it right away, but I just really like supporting Double Fine....so yeah.

They both will get my money this week. Money isn't the issue, it's the fact that I own twice the amount of content on XBLA that my 20 gig harddrive can hold. So I have to write down what I own, and download it as I need it. Terrible, terrible system. The 250gb HD, the HDMI, and dedicated Kinect port might get me to switch to a slim xbox from my launch model.

I'm getting both.  Normally I don't like the 1200 price point, but I do like to support Double Fine so it's all good.  Plus I need to get over the 2400 point hump to get my free 800.

I played the flash version of SMB to death and am more or less done with it. It has a lot of cool new features and levels, but man, there's only so many times a game can kick you in the nuts before you just don't want to play it anymore. Unless it was like, 400 points.  
I've been looking forward to Costume Quest since the first time I saw it in action. I'm beyond hyped for that game.

Both are a day one purchase. I will probably be playing Super Meat Boy more until Halloween time though.

  What?
 
The original flash game was pretty well meant to be played with an xbox controller. Go ahead and try it out, play it with a keyboard and then with an xbox controller. The controller works hundreds of times better than the keyboard does. I imagine super meat boy will be quite similar.

Maybe somebody already replied to this, but all your Dl's are already recorded. i was able to go back and find some old star trek episodes I had on my other HDD. If you have a question, pm me. Just checked, You go to your channel, and select Manage Acount. from there you will see download history as part of a list. self explanatory from there. I can't find a game I've only purchased but I believe it holds true for games, also.

I didn't even know Costume Quest was coming out tomorrow... For now I'll get SMB but I plan on getting Costume Quest as well at some point down the line.

I'm getting both because A) They both look really fun and B) Spending 30 dollars in October gets you 10 dollars back in November anyway.

Neither. SMB looks more frustrating than fun and I never really finish arcade games. Plus I'd rather get Fable 3, CoD and Star Wars than arcade games I probably won't play much (still barely touched Comic Jumper)

Super Meat Boy is a must buy, Costume Quest looks good, but it seems like one of those games that is only good for a short while.

@JJOR64:  you're not wrong. i thought about making it a poll but figured i'd just be lazy and make it a simple pick your side thread but looking back now i should have put up a poll as well.

Costume Quest.
 
Super Meat Boy looks like it would piss me off, which is why I had to uninstall Splosion Man. Plus, after Psychonauts and Brutal Legend I swore Id' buy any Double Fine game day one, sight unseen.
 
As for the promotion, I'm thinking I'll get 2 1600 MSP cards and grab The Writer along with some RB DLC (Dio and maybe some STP) to get me to 2400 points.
