Monster Madness: EX headed towards PlayStation 3 early next year photo

Remember when Psyonix's Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia was announced for the Xbox 360, PC, and PlayStation 3? And then they were all like, "Oh, the PlayStation 3 version has been delayed. Here are the Xbox 360 and PC versions, though"? Well, the PS3 version of the title has re-emerged, this time as Monster Madness: EX.

Monster Madness is a four-player, Unreal Engine 3.0 powered co-op monster slaughtering adventure that had a lot of potential, but fell short with broken controls and wonky camera. Psyonix hopes to rectify those issues by tweaking the camera and tightening controls, as well as adding mini-games and other built-in extras.

Nothing excites me more than the idea of fast-paced monster killing with three of my friends, but the Xbox 360 version of Monster Madness left a lot to be desired. Let's hope Monster Madness: EX makes me happy again when it ships early next year.

I'd be happier if Zombies At My Neighbors! got released for the VC.

This game was broken. It will always be broken. No amount of shiny can fix it.

I felt bad for the 360 version. Noone played it at PAX. It was all by itself everytime I walked by. Lol.

At least the concept art was kinda cool?

The 360 demo alone pissed me off. It's hard to turn me off of a game in less than 2 minutes, this game did it. The controls sucked, the camera never focused on the right thing, and if I remember correctly...the character you play keeps talking shit to the zombies w/ only 3-4 different phrases. That last point got REAL old REAL quick.

Seemed like a terrible attempt to find the badassidness (baddassidy, no. badassidium, no. badassitoritariunim, god no.) that was Hunter: The Reckoning for Gamecube.

Zombies at my Neighbors wouldn't work in 3D.

...or would it?

"Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia" was not developed by Psyonix Studios, it was developed by Artificial Studios.

They just finished level 3, and need to tighten up the graphics a little bit.

Wow. I guess I really am the only guy in the world that thought this game was totally great as it was. Seriously, I thought the controls were perfect and the camera was just fine. But, that's just me...

That's a nice ass fuck for 360 owners, we get the broken, buggy piece of shit version and PS3 owners get the complete version including the online co-op that should have been in the fucking game in the first place.

Way to support your fanbase southpeak.
