It sorta snuck up, but its now available. Tried the demo and I thought it was pretty good, not 800pts good though.

Tried out the demo, nothing really too spectacular.

I bet it's a bit more fun against real people, though.

Double D Dodgeball? Veronica Belmont is in this?

Yeah, from the title I thought this was going to be along the lines of that DOA Volleyball game.

Indeed she is.

As for the game, where is it? I couldn't find the demo or game. ?

Major Nelson took the info off his blog page this afternoon. Must have pulled the game.

I'd rather wait for Pirates VS Ninja Dodgeball anyways.

Ah, okay. I figured such. I just wanted to be sure it wasn't hidden under some mistitle. Thanks.

When I saw "Dodgeball" in the thread title for the July live stuff thread, I assumed it was Pirates/Ninjas.

Woe is me.

Game pulled...I thought it was weird to see it early, it wasn't supposed to come out till next week.

I thought it was weird to have 3 games come out. MUST HAVE 2 GAMES ONLY!

Anyways, the game wasn't that great, neither was the crosswords (didn't play fantasy football), so it was a shitty week.

Well that wasn't the Double D I was expecting either. Pass.

Seriously. Not feeling the bait and switch here, guys.

Indeed.

It looked and felt like a 400 point game... I don't see myself getting $10 play time out of this so I'll have to pass.

It was still up there the last time I was on LIVE...this morning at 4am. It was decent, the demo was too short though.

I played the demo and this is no Super Dodge Ball. This feels cheap and more like Breakout or Pong than dodge ball. I really did not enjoy the demo. Pirates vs. Ninjas Dodgeball looks more promising and enjoyable.

Is there a ETA on Pirates vs Ninjas for XBLA

It was supposed to be out in "Early 2008." Other than that, I can't find a set date.
