I just platinumed Jedi Survivor (which was awesome, you should play it) and I'm looking for my next new awesomeness to play.

The Messenger. I saw a post here a bit ago about Sabotage's upcoming "Sea of Stars" which looked interesting, and I saw they'd also done a Ninja Gaiden-inspired game several years back, so I picked it up.

I'm a couple hours in, and I've been really enjoying it. It has a very NES-like feel, while still being a smooth experience, i.e. not held back by the limitations of the NES, just inspired by it. Apparently it kicks into an SNES-style experience later on, so that'll be fun to see.

I'm not sure how enjoyable it'd be to somebody who didn't grow up on the NES, but I've had fun with it so far.
