If you own an Xbox 360 and haven't played Alien Hominid yet, shame on you. Shame, I say. You should feel terrible. It's tragic that you would ignore such a fantastic game, especially when it's coming from some of the nicest and hardest-working guys in this industry. You got Castle Crashers, right? So what's the deal with not having this? That was a pretty rotten thing to do, mister, and if I had a garden hose and a jar of angry hornets, so help me I'd ...
Ahem. Anyway, the time to redeem yourself for missing this game is March 30th, when it will officially become Xbox Live's "Deal of the Week," and go on sale for half price. That's 400 MS points, which is far less than what you'd pay for any number of much crappier games. The special price will be available all week, so that's plenty of time for you to stop kicking puppies and burning orphanages long enough to download it. You bad person. It's not too late to make things right, you know. I'm shaking my hornet jar.

I adored Castle Crashers, so this is very relevant to my interests.
Oh ho ho, no.
This game is fucking amazing, beautifully animated, and a hell of a challenge. It will obliterate the Newgrounds game from your memory.
My only complaint is that I don't have a 360...
I love this game.
Also, one of the bonus mini-games included, PDA Games, is amazing. My wife and I have probably sunk a good 40 hours into it, and it's 4-players. That you can play online, not just locally.
I think the only difference is that it's in HD and has online coop. Other than those two additions (and of course achievements) I haven't heard of anything different. I personally wont ever get this. No point when I already own it for PS2.
Anyways, at half price I'll probably get this and try it again solo. If nothing else I can unlock the Alien in Castle Crashers finally.
As I stated earlier, there is no online co-op, except for in one of the minigames. If you want to play the main campaign with a friend, you need to bring him over and sit his (or her) ass on the couch next to you.
