My interwebs is hooked up to my computers in the other room so my 360 gets neglected in the online department. Guess it leaves me in the dark.. sorry if this is old news.

It's old news but i don't think it ever had a topic. I really enjoyed playing this again. I was tempted to buy it but completely forgot about it for some reason, you revitalized my interest so I may end up getting it.

Holy shit I remember that part. That's the fat guard who only moves back a tiny step when you hit him and you have to be really careful not to get pushed over the edge?

Is this game actually any good? I'm tempted to pick up some more XBLA games, I only have Puzzle Quest atm.

Not sure it aged very well... the combat especially. It felt pretty dumb at the time already (yet pretty intense at the same time).

It's undoubtably a classic though.

I had a great deal of fun with the original back in the day, and I'm sure it would be just as enjoyable today. But if you never played the original, you might be bored by the limitations of it today.

The Demo is pretty fun. I was thinking I'd pick it up.

The screenshots dont due it justice, its really fucking fluid.

Geometry Wars, Castlevania SOTN, Alien Hominid HD are my top 3 pics. Generally speaking, I would avoid multiplayer XBLA games because they tend to be short lived and rarely played after that.

Oh wait, I just got it as I was writing a reply. I meant Smash TV.

Either way, good games
