If you're unfamiliar with the games, Rocket Knight is a classic 2D side-scroller from Konami that hit the Xbox 360 as an updated arcade title back in 2010. The game stars an opossum named Sparkster who must save his people from the threat of an enemy wolf army.
Meanwhile, Shadows of the Damned is (as you'd expect) a much darker title from 2012. In Shadows of the Damned, your put in the shoes of a demon hunter who must take on the literal armies of hell in order to save his love. Helping you is a former demon that can turn into a variety of different weapons as you head into combat, solve puzzles and more.
