I still need to pick this up on PSN someday.

Need a sale, though!

It's worth the regular price.

Eh it depends. I got it for $10 through Amazon's PSN store and even then I felt about 6-8 should be this game's price.

Good thing that is what it costs on XLBA right now, then! :)

@Riley Freeman It is worth the regular price (as are quite a few games). But getting it at 50% off all week on XBLA as part of their 11-day Countdown to 2011 promo, is what finally pushed me over the edge to make a purchase . . . along with several other downloadable games I have been meaning to buy for a while like Hydro Thunder Hurricane, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, Castlevania: Harmony of Despair, and a bunch of DLC from Red Dead Redemption, and Alan Wake that I have been salivating over for months.

My point is, in these economic troubling times, there is nothing quite like a really good sale to move software. Even for games that are already really popular and easily worth more. A lot of people balk at the $15 price tag, but with the economy the way it is, can you seriously blame them?

Always loved the game (or demo I should say). Should I pick this up on XBLA for 600 pts?!

Yes x2,000.
I wish this game had dlc, because I would buy it just to support the big B.

@KirbyCommando Ah. Maybe pick up Alien Hominid then to spread love. If that's not there buy some theme doohickey..or send them a love letter.

I do NOT plan to buy any of their future games based on the fact that MP was completely broken for MONTHS after the XBLA release. It was extremely frustrating.

So....play offline with your friends? You know there once was a time when people DIDN'T have online capabilities all together. Half the fun of this game is getting everyone around the screen and playing it.

I just picked this up over the weekend. My sister talked me into getting it to play with her. Best 600 ms points spent for an arcade game. It is so much fun. I can't believe I didn't play this game sooner.

Just because 2 million have played or downloaded a program doesn't mean it has a 2 million large fan, or even active user, base. Infact I bought Castle Crashers to see what it was like. Not a big fan. Same with most of my friends. We have it, we just aren't fans of the game. As the person above me said that hardly anyone's online with this game.

I heard nothing but good things about the game and I'd just won a $10 amazon gift card, so I figured why not. Some friends saw I had it so they got it.

You can blame the 256 hack for that one. Playing online is a risk because you can end up bumping into one of them, and they're contagious.

I had a lot of fun with this game. It totally reminded me of playing TMNT or XMen with my brothers on the genesis.

I totally got stuck on the volcano level boss though. SO FRUSTRATING!

This game is great and worth the full price imo. The one thing that was a huge disappointment was not being able to play co-op online for months and months. By the time they got that fixed up no one was playing it anymore. That was one of the big reason's I picked it up.

Any of their future games Im interested in purchasing I will hold off on till im sure that any kind of online co-op/vs. mode works properly.

Did they ever fix the connection issue with friends that this game was having? I got it when it first came out and I can't play with some of my friends on it.

diarrhea-stricken forest wildlife, lol.

Just bought this before Thanksgiving and have had a GREAT time playing with my brother. Haven't been online with it, though.

too bad the hit boxes don't match the character shapes at all. to me, fatal flaw.

i may be alone, and i really wanted to like this game, but with broken hit detection, it's the worst game i own.
