No Castle Crasher until 2008; Now we play the waiting game photo

[Update: Straight from Behemoth:

"There seems to be a misunderstanding on one of the items written in that article. The quote from Joystiq that was taken from Dan Paladin was misinterpreted and we are not waiting to release the game due to the size limit increase. In fact we still have to get permission from Microsoft in order to qualify for the 150 limit. In short I just wanted to make sure there was some clarity on the topic. Although we may be releasing in 2008, we are working hard to finish the game as soon as possible."]

If you happen to be one of the many gamers eagerly awaiting the release of the Xbox Live Arcade title, Castle Crashers, then get ready for a bittersweet reality check.

The Behemoth's Dan Paladin recently made it clear that Castle Crashers will not be out until 2008 due to Microsoft changing the XBLA size restriction. Because developers can give us more bang for our buck, The Behemoth wants to make their gem of a game even better by adding new and mysterious features.

Great, now I'm even more excited for Castle Crashers to come out. If only we could cryogenically freeze ourselves until 2008 ...

Always down for some worms! as long as those damn DC don't pop up. those damn things froze my console tonight!

As for CC, as long as they are going to use all that extra space to add more content to the game, I wont complain since im going to get a better product in the end.

Worms and Alien Hominid should sustain me for awhile.

Bummer. But at least they're making good use of the increased size limit.

The increased size limit is definitely a good thing; we were talking this while playing Worms tonight. They could've put a lot more into Worms if they would've had the room to do it. Hopefully they'll release some download content since it's in the main menu.

DLC for worms is imminent. It's missing a few key weapons and the levels are limited to a pathetic "3"

Is it me or does the swordsman on the far left look like Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Phantom Menace?
