[quote name='Wolfkin']there's something to be said about doing "more of the same" well. Unlike straight ports of games like TMNT or X-Men which were designed for quarters and what all and have obvious weaknesses I think Castle Crashers works not because it does anything particularly innovative or unique but it does all the things of it's genre well. That coupled with some
modern humor makes it appeal to many of us.
Playing it with people is really fun.[/QUOTE]
It's probably the same reason I don't GET Borderlands, and some of the "humor" that's been in some of these games that's suppose to be funny makes me groan, I guess I don't like cheap laughs as much as I used too.

Umm...:lol:...which part, I was replying to like three different things...
[quote name='guardian_owl']I certainly hope that the 30%/50% PS+ trend will not become the norm for PSN sales.[/QUOTE]
They're baiting the hook, trying to entice more people to sign up, you should know that by now. That's why Stacking was free, why the Genesis games for the next 4 months are free, games are discounted 30-50%, and other stuff.
So I wouldn't be shocked if that's the new "norm" as you say for sales, but yeah would be nicer to get 50% across the board, but don't be shocked if it becomes common place from here on in.

I see Squenix, still can't decide what to call Necromachina, since Ro is referring back to its original name Moon Diver, it's nice to see that all that is left is only Rush N Attack then all of the games I've been waiting for will be out.
I see I'm not the only one who thinks that.

Wow...must be me, but the selctions for this years Spring Fever (on this list anyway) just...suck. I bought 2-3 things last year, and this year, other than Dead Nation, I might (big IF there) get Eat Them, but I already own War of the Monsters and I'm not a huge Rampage fan either, even though I do like King of the Monsters 1/2, so I'll think about that one.
Anybody have any
recommendations for this game?

Just a note for the Sales after Week #1 (discount on PSN Gamers’ Choice Award Winners),
the discount will be 50% off the regular price for ALL users. Also, note that the sale offers change out each week. So be sure to check back often to find out which sale titles are offered next…
So next week they'll go on sale even more, but it wont be the same things on sale? (Confused)[/QUOTE]
Yeah, here considering what I just said above, this confuses me too.
Frisky, can you shed any light on what the heck Ro is talking about, if the sales end next week for what's on sale this week, why would the prices/sales reflect a 50% off sales price for every one...or is Ro ONLY talking about the award winners, if so then I'll be pissed for spending $3 more, but still that comment makes like no sense at all, or why'd they do that to people who bought thinking it's the cheapest it'd be period...
Is Ro talking about the sales from 3/15 on...if so then it does make more sense, just not explained very well, that the award winners get this special treatment, then from next week onward until the end of Spring Fever sales will be 50% off for
everyone for the sale items, if so then it's starting to be a lot clearer.
Still, bad wording by Ro, I gotta say that, wonder why we were confused by the award nominees all being part of the Spring Fever sale, this person needs to learn how to clarify their statements better...
Man long post...:lol:
