Not sure if anyone has seen or played this? Its available now on Xbox through Xbox Live to download.

It looks stunning and is apparently incredibly addictive.

Certainly looks different. Even Zero Punctuation didn't hate it, which means it must be truly staggeringly good!

Has been out for several weeks & I got quite a long way into it.The puzzles get relatively tricky and can frustrate, but it's an enjoyable little platformer and you just try, try and try again if you slip up.You also got hints of their being other characters in the game early on which added quite a lot to to it all, but I haven't seen any for ages since then.Shame really.

I downloaded this on steam last night because it's only £6.99 and about a 100mb download. It's actually pretty cool, the visuals are really interesting. Well worth a punt IMO.

I've seen this around, and it does look good. Steam don't have a mac version so its PS3 or Xbox for me. There's an Xbox disc to buy with Trials HD, Splosion Man and Limbo, I've already got Trials HD but I might get that disc anyway.

Thanks, just had a thought though. The Xbox arcade DVD games run off the disc though don't they, so you can't install them to run with no disc? Limbo as a download is 1200pts on Xbox or £9.99 on PS3. Hmmm...

Edit: £7.99 on playstation plus.

Bought this from the PS Store. I absolutely love it. This, to me, is exactly the sort of game I want to buy. Fairly short, inexpensive, high quality, innovative. Lovely visuals, smooth animation and physics. Intriguing concept. Genuine puzzles. No tiresome backtracking or distracting sub plots.

Gone are the days that I could spend 6 hours a day on the Playstation, so Limbo is a perfect fit. Makes me laugh that it cost less (for example) than a few maps on COD, that you have to pay for on top of the initial full purchase price.

Xbox One 'early adopters' (don't know how early, mine is a Day One) should have an Xbox message with a code to claim a free copy of Limbo smile .
