While Bomberman Live still has the Destructoid crew gripped firmly in its meathooks, it's safe to say that Castle Crashers looks like the Next Big Thing on XBLA. In this video from Comic-Con, we get to see an entire boss battle play out and get a big taste of what to expect from the crack animators and developers at The Behemoth.
I want this game. I want it bad. "TBD" can't come fast enough.
I remember playing this game last year at PAX and I was told it was coming to the arcade, I couldn't believe it because it looked so awesome(plus the arcade really sucked a year ago)
Flash games don't look like that. Nor do they play like that, either -- play the flash version of Alien Hominid, then get your hands on the console versions or Alien Hominid HD. The art style is the only thing Flash-esque about it, and that's definitely part of the appeal.
Distrato, you're an enemy of fun. Go play some of the 4-player Konami arcade brawlers with friends and get back to us.
Actually at the end of the level where you have to fight Bebop and Rocksteady together, once you defeat them the person with the most points gets a kiss from April O'Neal.

Same goes for the Newcastle. Burling FTW.
Fighting with your buddies for the girl.
I also, though it was funny how they had to fight each other for the girl at the end. Classic.
Looking awesome as always!
With an extra year of dev time under their belts, this game is gonna dominate XBLA.
heaven forbid their roots are from newgrounds and they still have the NG logo at the begining of alien hominid hd or anything.
If not, I expect a Wii version by the end of '08.
Super Paper Mario selling over 1 mil in it's first 6 months of release proves that Wii owners accept 2D games.
360 owners? Not quite as much.

and that game owned so hard.

Think of that everytime I see anything on this game. Good'ol fashioned ignorance, yay.
