Join Nick and I as we play through some of Trenched, Double Fine's latest XBLA title, tonight!
The recent Trenched PlayBit was a success, but it also worked in some play time of Microsoft Game Studios', South Park: Let's Go Tower Defense Play. Be sure to check out the replay below to see some footage from both games, as well as both Jason and Nick's thoughts on the games.
Tower defense, mechs, television, and cigars. What else could a man want?
Ever picked up an enchanting book which starts off strong with a variety of colorful characters, an interesting plot, and a great setting, making for an engrossing experience that seems to be heading somewhere grand? Ever felt that sort of emptiness inside your gut when that same book just moves in circles, and no early plot elements are fleshed out, where the characters never express their true personality, and event after event feels the same? That's Double Fine's Trenched. An unbelievably well-shaped game with great characters, solid gameplay, and an original setting. Where does Trenched take it? Sadly, practically nowhere, leaving an emptiness inside that was expecting much, much more.
Since there won't be a Monday Night PlayBit this week, join Chris and Jason as they play through much of Castle Crashers! Join us next week for Trenched.
Quick! Someone pick which knight or character I should play as! We only have the Gray Knight unlocked, and Chris has already taken the Blue one as his. I've also played some as the Green and Red Knights, so choose from any of them, and I'll be glad to take the character.
While at E3, I found the time to play Kirby's upcoming new title, Kirby Wii.
The newest Kirby console title, Kirby Wii, brings Kirby back to a world less composed of fibers and more of dreams. That's right, Kirby is, without a doubt, back in Dream Land, offering similar stage design and gameplay to that found in modes like DynaBlade and Revenge of the Meta Knight in Kirby's Super Star.
