Number 9

Lumines! Live!

This 2006 XBOX 360 Arcade game came free with my XBOX. It wasn't until I had owned my XBOX for several months that I thought I'd give it a whirl (must have been a slow afternoon). Big mistake! Huge! Theres something about little cubes falling on a screen that sucks me right it!! It's not good!

The game is simple enough, make a cube! Not too hard, and it's not really, but it becomes all about speed and chaining multiple cubes from one drop. It's not an amazing game at all, and it's not original, but I was (past tense) addicted to it none the less. At the height of my addiction I would close my eyes at night after playing it for several hours and see the game replayed in my head! It was truely horrible!!

And I should note that my fiance loves this game! Behind Fable 2 and Sims 3 it would probably make 3rd on her all time favourite list!

I never made any promises about this list being respectable, so at Number 9 we have Lumines - Live!
