Played the trial and enjoyed it but was happy to leave it for the moment but got a really good write-up at Eurogamer and the following Quick Look which shows that multiplayer looks an absolute blast.

I'm gonna regret it due to the games I'm still playing but I think I shall pick this up.

I played the demo and didnt really like it, its a nice idea but the story annoyed me (i just wanted to play) and it didnt inspire me at all.

Destructoid have been following this game for a while (The Destructoid mascot is even a playable character). It looks okay but I never got into Mr Driller so it's probably not for me.

Might try the trial when I can be arsed.

I tried it and it was OK, didnt really make me want to buy it tho - I will probably wait until its half price in a sale.
