Greetings Dukes. With the Xbox 360 store having finally been sunset, what were your favorite hidden gems from Xbox Live Arcade that are sadly now gone for good?

Hey Dukes, Not sure if it's been submitted before or if either of you two have checked it out, but my Game Pass pick of the week would be Rollerdrome. This game has been out for almost 2 years now but I don't think it ever got the attention it deserved. It's a true masterclass in terms of style and gameplay. While it has the feel of "Tony Hawk Pro Skater with guns", it emphasizes maintaining your momentum as you clear each stage with smart design decisions like no fall state, tricks refill you ammo, and well-timed dodges allow you to use bullet time which helps improve accuracy and your guns damage. This game isn't a big time commitment and the story is basically non-existent, but the replay value of returning to old stages to complete challenges and improve your score is definitely there. Shoutout to Roll7, it's a shame Take-Two shutdown the studio as this game had the core mechanics figured out that a sequel could have easily built upon and hopefully garnered more attention.
