As I predicted, despite the high price tag, Castle Crashers looks to be a huge hit. First day on 360voice.com shows (unscientifically) that 5073 users bought and played it. Compared to the other "Summer of the Arcade" games : GW2 = 4283, Braid = 2122 (peak was 2536 a few days later), Bionic Comando Rearmed = 3134 and Galaga Legions = 1174. No doubt, Castle Crashers was a hit!

For any game to be able to beat GW2 is pretty amazing.

I played the demo and thought it was at least amusing. I was a big fan of brawlers when I was younger. I don't think I have enough spare points. May wait until I buy more again or a price drop.

Death Tank approaches. Looks like a great real-time update to Scorched Earth (or Worms, if that's more your thing). Will keep my eye on this one.

Finished a game of Castle Crashers this morning, playing with my buddy online without any problems. Using the red knight, finished at level 28. I'm not sure if I want to go through and level up with some of the other guys or keep buffing up my red knight. I never got the boomerang and need to go back and get all the pets.

Awesome fun.

Look at all six scores. Which one doesn't belong? Pacifism. And I meant, #1 on my friends list, not overall. Troz sits at the top with about 330mil.

I have a code for the full version of Uno (99% sure it hasn't been used). If someone would like it, just PM me and I'll send it to you.

I'll take that code if someone hasn't already. Thanks for the offer.

Uno is a great game. I got that arcade disc that had uno,feeding frenzy, pacman ce, and some other stuff used for $12 and I enjoy playing uno online. Braves you can add me to your list if you ever want to play a game.

Wasn't SFII HD Remix supposed to be a summer release? Did it get pushed back?

Okay, what the hell is going on with Castle "Crashers"? I've played the damn Theives' Forrest level over and over and after getting past all the defacating animals (and let me tell you, it just gets funnier EVERY TIME I SEE IT!), I get to the boss and some glitch causes the level to freeze in mid battle and takes all my potions. Once I moved around enough so I never got caught and actually beat the boss but it still froze and wouldn't let me advance. Anyone else have this problem? It's annoying as hell.

Haven't had the game freeze on me at all, but my friend just had the issue where he was disconnected while playing online and lost all his items. I've seen multiple reports of it on some message boards, which really sucks.

I tried the game a few hours later and it worked fine. I'd read about that disappearing weapon/animal bug when peoplemove their HD to another 360. Anyway, I'm glad I was finally able to get past that annoying level

For anyone playing Castle Crashers, i've been trying to get all the weapons. Someone on Gamefaq's posted this pic with all of them. Kinda neat.

I'd like to thank Decker for being in my friend list, if it wasn't for him I would be last in my friend list.





Oh yeah, and if someone else with low score wants to add me to their friend list you are more than welcome.

Yep, I am glad he is on my FL too.

It is always good when I play a game that has leaderboards and he has played the game too... at least I beat someone...
