N+ on XBLA this Wednesday

N+ on XBLA this Wednesday photo

At long last, N+ (800 Microsoft Points) is prepped and ready to go up on Xbox Live Arcade. With so few platformers available on the service, it couldn't have come at a better time.

If you've played the original N, you should know what to expect from N+. While the core mechanics are still the same, N+ brings 300 brand new levels, replays, a level editor, and online multiplayer for up to 4 players (survival, race, co-op).

In short, if you liked N, you're going to love N+. Any takers?

I don't care what the hell anyone else thinks. This is the best XBLA game of the year so far.

I would definately be buying this if I owned a 360. Although, I never beat all the levels in the original PC title... maybe I should go do that...

Any news on when this is supposed to come out for the ds? I'm torn as to whether or not I should get the 360 version or one that I can poke with a small stick and take with me everywhere.

800 points for what's essentially a flash game? Eh, pass. I'll consider it for the DS when it comes out then, if only because I'd like to have it on portable.

Now when the hell is Line Rider coming?

Well, that only took forever. I wonder when we'll see Castle Crashers.

yes preaze.

Also,
"800 points for what's essentially a flash game?"
I'd say most XBLA games are essentially flash games.

Eh.. at $10 no thanks. I'll stick with the free one on PC where I still can't beat all the levels. :o

N is fun - hopefully it controls better with the 360 controller than the keyboard.

Also, if you won't pay $10 for this, you utterly and epicly fail at life. I wouldn't trust it to run on DS, the game was forced 800x600 on PC, I have no idea how the DS is going to properly display the game with it's tiny low res screen. I'm hoping the PSP version at least works out reasonably.

Calling it a "Flash" game, isn't really fair. The game used Flash as a platform, yes, but it was downloadable only, and on a much higher tier than your average NG Flash game.

Seriously, this game is the greatest puzzle platformer EVER.
