Both completed to push me up to 27 XBLA completions, 22 away from my goal. I've already given my opinions on Lode Runner, it's a genuinely fun game that would be one of the Arcade's best if not for the fact that it just drags on forever. 80 SP and 48 co-op levels. It gets boring after a while.
Interpol is HORRIBLE. The plot makes no sense, and they don't even need one. It's a fucking arcade game, just throw me some pictures, tell me what to find, and we're good. Graphics suck, which I normally don't care about, but the ENTIRE GAME is graphics.
Then there's the fact that it can be insanely confusing as to what things are. One level has you looking for a lamp, and there's about a billion lamp-looking things. Somehow, none of them are lamps and the thing you're supposed to find looks like a goddamn apple. There's another part where you need to find the word "Italia", and damn it if it's not the two huge "ITALIA" banners in the center of the screen, but a little pamphlet hidden in the corner. Or the "Find 8 Fives" section where three of them are completely blocked from view and can only be found by randomly clicking around. Or the part where the "Bear" is just a brown lump on something that looks vaguely like the California state flag. I could go on, but this game doesn't deserve this much time out of me.
Achievements are buggy, which always pisses me off, but they're easy enough to work out and it takes no more than 3 or so hours for the full 200.
I'm pretty much fed up with GTA for the time being, going to stick with Fallout and Fracture until I get both of them finished up.
