David Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 This is really good and well worth the 800 points. Played the first 5 levels or so. The controls are tight, and it looks good. It's funny as well, and the achievements are . Free gamerpics, themes, and I believe avatar content as well. 'Splosion Man runs around screaming Arnie lines such as 'GET TO THE CHOPPER' and everything. I hear it gets quite difficult though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I played the trial and i wernt too sure at first but i decided to give it ago, and im quite enjoying it, i still love his manic laughing and what made me laugh when you play up scientists they turn into steaks.

David Posted July 22, 2009 Author Share Posted July 22, 2009 The multiplayer is great as well. If enough of us get it, we can have amazing 4 player sessions through 50 LEVELS. I can see it getting very hard as well, there's lots of synchronised jumps and things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANGERMAN Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I'm enjoying this, it's really compulsive. It's a good job there's 100 levels though as non of them seem very long. The only thing that's annoyed me is that i was killed by a robot twice because he knocked me against a wall, then hit me again before i could recover which seemed a bit cheap The name of the achievements that have popped up so far have been genius, the scientist one being my favourite so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Has anyone taken it online yet? Started off fine but then went unplayable thanks to good old Mr Lag It looked like it was going to be pretty fun though and I am enjoying single player even though it did take me 27 minutes to kill the first boss...

Hendo Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Played through the trial, loved it, bought it, played through a new save to the same point, still love it. Good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hinn888 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Played it online with 3 other people, likes lag so we can never time the jumps at the same time, its better to play it with 2 players, 4 players is just the same but with more to synchronise with. I got the 2nd gamerpic and just stopped there, im gna try it local so i can get the most out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craymen Edge Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 So much personality in this game. The 'splosion man is utterly insane and hilarious. Did anyone else spend a couple of minutes 'playing' the menu in time with the music? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm stuck on him too, the missiles are easy, but the 2nd laser gets me everytime Done the very next turn (here's how) use the wall to explode, jumping over the lasers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroed Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 I had a quick go on this earlier before work, just did the first four levels, and it's real good fun. The controls feel tight and pure, in an old-skool kind of way. It's very reminiscent of the 2D Sonic games at times. I'm not overly keen on the graphics, but they don't get in the way of the gameplay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Really? I'm very impressed, especially with the attention to detail, like the reflections in the background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sly Reflex Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 This is hard. didn't have many problems until after the boss. Then it just turn into me saying obscenities at that little orange bastard that, although he can explode, can't take getting the soles of his feet wet. Those laser shooting ships can fuck off as well. Good game though, even though sometimes it like playing one of those Mario levels that is set up to kill you every inch of the way.

hinn888 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 done 1-16 now, first boss got a bit tedious i thought, but i liked how when u explode, the light reflected of his face. 1-11 however i didnt complete, coz i dno how but if u die enough times u can skip the level. im so proud.

I'm not sure, I think it's the overall shininess. The graphics are very good, I'm just not mega keen on the art style. It is well suited to the game though, I'm just being picky.
