I splashed the cash last night and I must admit I'm not too convinced on it. Felt like a very passive experience, like I was watching something rather than playing.

My housemate described it as being a slightly longer version of the bit in Zelda: Link's Awakening where you take Bow-wow out. Made me laugh but he has a point.

Well, free is free I guess, I'll give it a whirl... what do you have to do exactly for the time achievement then?

[fuse]

Play at each 6 of the Maw's meal times on a day. Can be done by fiddling with time zones on your system from what I've read

[Mayhem]

Yeah, I ended up doing that with the 360 offline

Rather enjoyed that (200/200) so I've bought the DLC and will give that a go after more attempts at the Borderlands DLC.

Just finished Where's Wally... What a bloody chore. Finished the Kids version (!) and no way am I going back to play on Normal.

No XBLA game today but Matt Hazard next week (?!) and then Serious Sam the week after.

Castle Crashers is today's deal for 560 points (does anyone not already own this? For shame! ).

[ChrisF]

This Matt Hazard I believe... http://www.giantbomb.com/matt-hazard...yond/61-28508/


Doesn't look too bad. Side scrolling shooter this time.

I think everybody owns it, just nobody has played it.

[Powerstar]

I DIDNT!

Always wanted it, so purchased that, and the maw there. 960 points all in. BRILLIANT.

Idiots! ><

Like you said on the other thread, they probably bagged the first two levels then moved on. :/

Not being satisfied with the imminent Perfect Dark XBLA release I think Sonic Team should HD-up Nights and throw in 60 FPS whilst they're at it.

I loved CC, it's a mental sight for the eyes. Colours everywhere moving at 100mph, it's great!

There's no "probably" about it!

It's an ace game, one I wanted to get into...sadly it needed patching and it took ages, by then everyone had moved on and was left on my lonesome to play it.

So is Castle Crashers genuinely recommended then? I tried the demo on release and thought it pretty poor as a scrolling fighter went so never bothered but if people think it's worth sticking with I'm willing to splash out at the reduced price.

Those were my exact thoughts after playing the demo too. I couldn't see anything special about it at all?
