Avatar Golf is the eagerly awaited sequel to Easy Golf released last year. Avatar Golf features 6 courses to play with your avatar, a course designer where courses can be shared with others, up to four player local and eight player live multiplayer games and loads more. The game costs just 400 :MSPoints: so skip the trial and buy it straight away!

Crystal Spear remake is a simple game where you must navigate a tunnel avoiding the obstacles to get to the end in the fastest time. You can get to the end a couple of times within the trial limit so the game is really not worth buying. The full game costs 80 :MSPoints: and the trial can be downloaded here.

Dark Skies Constellations is an educational game where you can learn about the stars. There is a Hunt mode where you must find the location of a constellation, an explore mode that shows all the names and the constellations and a screen saver. This probably wont be everybody’s kind of game but it you have some interest in the stars this could be useful. It costs 240 :MSPoints: and the trial can be downloaded here.

Fireworks Spectacular is a fireworks display program. The trial is pointless as pressing A to start the fireworks brang up a prompt to buy the game, nothing seems to do anything. A trial is supposed to give you a chance to see the software in action, not just a title screen. Do not waste your time with this, I will not even link the marketplace page for wasting my time and most likely yours.

Halfbrick Rocket Racing is a racing game with some twists. Forget your traditional accelerator/brake and steering controls, try the new control method of left and right boosters (LT and RT) which can be fired independently to turn and when both fired simultaneously to accelerate. It is a good idea and I will be the first to admit it does take some getting used to, but you will get the hang of it fairly soon, you can change to more traditional controls if you dont. The game has good presentation and graphics and has 40 levels with up to four player local multiplayer. Well worth checking out at 240 :MSPoints:, you can download the trial here.

Mini Golf 360 is a Mini Golf game 🙂 I think there only 9 holes are in the game, if I am right then this is not enough and should be at least 18 holes. Graphics are basic but do the job, the game is not bad and there is support for up to four players local multiplayer. The full game costs 80 :MSPoints: and the trial can be found here.

Shining Blood is a 3D shooter in which you control a robot who must defeat a number of enemies per level to progress. The game is set in a Light, Red and Black world which leads to a very interesting red graphics themed game. It is a Japanese game but the majority of it is in English text. I am not quite sure what to make of this game from the eight minute trial, you can try it for yourself here, the full game costs 400 :MSPoints:

Sky_Arena is a flight sim combat game in which you must eliminate the leader of the enemy. You can play in either single player or split screen two player mode. Graphics are nice but there is not really much to the game and I got bored by the eight minutes. The game costs 80 :MSPoints: and the trial can be found here.

Wizard’s Tower Screen Saver is a screen saver for your 360. The trial only let me change the camera angle so I have no idea what the rest looks like, the graphics are very good 3D and some nice water sound effects can be heard. It costs 80 :MSPoints: and the trial can be downloaded here.
