I'm looking for a few good xbox live arcade games, preferably some platformer's, but whatever is good/entertaining
Any suggestions?

Usual shoutouts to Braid, castle Crashers and of course the old games, Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo Tooie, My faves the Megadrive Games such as Sonic 1 and 2, Golden Axe, Streets of Rage 2, etc.

there was some community game that the demo was really fun can't remember the name but it was circus themed and you had to swing your guy around the level and collect stuff
Marble Blast Ultra is one of the earliest but still remains as one of the finest Xbox Live Arcade games available. The multiplayer mode is incredible and it's pretty cheap to buy.
I also really like Outrun Online Arcade, Worms and Street Fighter II HD Remix but I think overall, the XBLA game lineup is quite disappointing. Too many over hyped crappy games like Braid, Castle Crashers and Geometry Wars cluttering it up.
Castle Crashers is short and unsatisfactory. The demo makes you think the game will be fun, but it just gets horribly repetitive.

Peggle is fun. Castle Crashers is fun. Braid is fun. Marble Blast Ultra is fun. Worms is fun. Bomberman is fun. UNO is fun.
