    Limbo was great on the 360. One of the few arcade titles I finished.

    Still unsure what this game is about after multiple completions but I have loved going through it every time.

      I believe Its about they boy dying over and over again expected to live out the events of the game for eternity.
      The end of the game is his death but also the start.

      With out reading the description I’d have no clue either. “Uncertain of his sister’s fate, a boy enters LIMBO ” SPOILER: The end he sees his sister and can rest peacefully.

        SPOILER: He is forced to live out the same events over and over, there is no peace in limbo.

        But why does he enter Limbo? Why is he chasing his sister? What is that glass he smashes through at the end? So many unanswered questions which I why I love it. I get he is in Limbo and what Limbo is but apart from that it leaves everything up to the imagination.

        The glass at the end is to signify the beginning in a sense, the glass does hold significance he died before the game and LIMBO is his own personal hell which included his fears (spiders, drowning, heights). When he finds his sister this can signify the end of the game depending on which theory you follow in which he finds peace and can move away from his hell.

        The one thing you need to know is LIMBO is a state between life and death. The 2 of the biggest endings is for him to repeat the events over and over or to find happiness and move past LIMBO.

        I have never played the game because to me it looks depressing. I’m glad you wrote this post because I was curious.

        Not referring to limbo in particular. I’m talking about some of the other games on GwG in which they are on sale mere weeks before it goes free. Games like darksiders 2, hitman etc.

        Just because a game has been on sale shouldn’t exclude it from being a future GWG nor should a game be restricted from going on sale before it’s on GWG. I doubt they plan these things too far ahead of time, it may be annoying but it’s just something people have to deal with. Half the GWG’s so far have been games I bought near release. Remember also that buying a game on sale means you own the game regardless of you Xbox live status. Whereas GWG are limited to your subscription. You should really think of them as separate things. GWG’s are essentially long term rentals through a subscription service.

        One correction for your post – GwG on the 360 ARE yours to keep and are not tied to having your subscription current like it is on the Xbox One. You stop paying for Live, you can still play them afterwards.

        I know it happened to me a few times on games like Darksiders 2 and Sleeping Dogs and didn’t bother me because they are both great games worth the money.
        The only game that bothered me was Hitman because it was absolute cr*p.

    So what about us in the countries that got the xbox one almost a year later but who bought it imported because couldn’t wait for the official version to release, which by the way isn’t AT ALL different than the day one it came out in the US etc. Only thing that changed was the ability to choose the right locale but that only made things WAY worse because of the forcing of the languages and that is a HUGE slap to the face of the europeans who speak many languages and possibly live in a country without knowing the local language but they are forced to use it! Microsoft should fix that ASAP! It wasn’t an issue on the 360 so much but now it is, and the xbox one is the ONLY device of the current consoles that does this and one of the reasons why many abandon the xbox and goes to PS4.

      Maybe it’s because Sony want street fighter fan to buy their console so they make money? Just like MS did at the start of the 360 with many games.

        No one is going to buy a console based on if that console has Street Fighter or Tomb raider. It’s just stealing the game away from gamers.

        According to reports Sony funded development on the new Street Fighter just like Nintendo funded Bayonetta 2.
