2D Flash version of Portal

Back when Portal came out, this great 2D Flash version of Portal was released free-to-play online. It's a lot of fun, and has over 40 great levels of Portal puzzles.

Dark Void Zero

Capcom created a Metroid-style "prequel" to their next-gen game Dark Void, called Dark Void Zero. It is a 2D jetpack shooter, complete with period box art. I haven't tried it yet, but the DSi version has a higher Game Ranking than the next-gen game. It's available on DSi, iPhone and PC.


It's available for PC on Steam ($4.99!) http://store.steampowered.com/app/45730/

Scott Pilgrim Vs The World

The new movie Scott Pilgrim Vs the World (based on Bryan Lee O'Malley's comics of the same name) is full of old-school gaming goodness. But in addition to that, UbiSoft is releasing a 4-person co-op beat-em-up in the style of Capcom's arcade classics or River City Ransom. It's being released for PSN in August and shortly after for XBLA.

Expendables movie 8-bit experience!



The new action movie Expendables has created an awesome new Contra-style 8-bit game. The only drawback is that it's only available on Facebook, and you have to "like" it and allow to to access for your info to play it.
