So i have 1100 points just sitting on my account,
what should I buy with them?
I've just bought Castle Crashers, and that's been alot of fun,
but i'm looking for another high quality game to round out my experience.

    Any particular genre?

    My favorite XBLA games by far are Rez and Braid.

    Other than Castle Crashers, there aren't really any beat-em-ups on the XBLA. There's Street Figher 2 HD Remix, which is a good old-fashioned fighting game, and then there are lots of great platformers like N+, Megaman 9, and Bionic Commando Rearmed. Other XBLA favorites of mine include Rez, Braid, Geometry Wars 2, and Pac-Man: Collector's Edition.

    My advice? Download demos of everything that sounds interesting to you, and then buy what you like the best.

    Braid is incredible, if you have not played it try the demo, I know it is not a beat em up but it is incredible.
