That’s right boy and girls; Microsoft has finally approved the Castle Crashers patch. The title update will be live in the next few hours at 2AM Pacific and should address all issues with online play, game saves and all of the other little exploits. The Behemoth will have a detailed post on the Dev Blog sometime on Wednesday detailing all the specifics.
It’s been a long hard bumpy road for the Castle Crashers team. The game out in August to rave reviews but then people started to have a ton of problems with the it. Patches were promised and it has taken nearly four months for the patch to finally be approved.
Personally, I didn’t care too much about the issues with the game. I have yet to play online with anyone, but I enjoyed the experience and got its worth after playing through the game a few times. Now I have a reason to go back and play the game finally with you all on Friday Night Fights. Of course, I understand all the anger over the game and have to wonder if it’s too little, too late.

and God Bless us every one
I still don't believe it
really awesome game...but damn if they didn't make the unlocking system retarded. I can't share all my characters across local accounts?! are you serious?! When the hell are my casualfag friends gonna grind a bunch of characters and beat the game a few dozen times?
THERE REALLY IS A SANTA CLAUS!!!!
I do find it cute that the fanboys/Behemoth are still insisting that it's Microsoft's fault the patch took so long though.
Best. Week. EVERRRRRRRRR!
thanks a fucking lot Microsoft.
Whatever. No Rants on the holidays . . .
HOORAY FOR PATCH! I just played a quick match that 1) actualyl connected me with 4 random people and 2) didn't wig out part way through a level!
I'll definitely play more of this. Call me strange, but there's something about playing random people that gets me hot . . .
I've said too much . . .
I shit you not, it takes forever for Microsoft do approve things. My downstairs neighbor in my apt building was working on an Arcade game and actually gave up on Microsoft because the approval process was such a hassle. I think he was going to try to get it up on WiiWare instead.
I know they're just 3 people but really, I was lucky if I managed to play with other people online cause of bugs
you guys need to shut the fuck up and calm the fuck down
haha
microsoft didnt delay an update for 4 months behemoth just didnt make it for 4 months for all u "die hards"
as for nintendoll ur neighbor is just a fucking lazy retard who couldnt wait more than a month to get something approved
and seriously
the wii?
that system was just a complete joke
there is no good games on it that werent already made for the gamecube or before
nintendo should just give up and drop out of the race. theyre finished anyways
