Shank was awesome and totally worth $10. I'd recommend this to anyone who likes beat 'em up games. If you didn't get Scott Pilgrim last week at 400 points, shame on you. Here's your chance to redeem yourself.

The art style reminds me of The Venture Brothers, and the gameplay is really smooth.

And as for that Microsoft Game Studios deal, it also applies to DLC and avatar items.
