    Default 'Splosion Man

    Is awesome. It's the first XBLA game I've ever purchased after playing the demo. Mostly I play the demo and then think it's not worth my money. I was happy to plunk down $10 for this one. A great little platformer (based on the little of it I've played).

    This is a great XBLA game, I bought it right after finishing the demo. Everyone should definitely try this one, it has a nice classic feel to it. It's great to see a new game that only needs one button and one directional stick as there aren't that many of those these days!

    i picked this one up too. the satisfying controls and fun level design are one thing, but the thing that hooked me was the amount of personality they managed to squeeze into the character. they had me the first time 'splosion man ran down a corridor with his arms spread like wings making engine sounds.

    multiplayer is a blast too.

    what junk the magic dragon said about personality is spot-on. i love how off-hinged 'splosion man is.

    Also played through the demo and enjoyed it. I was thinking about getting it, but I'm a little unsure about how long it will keep my interest. By the end of the demo I felt like it could get very repetitive after a while. I also wish they toned down the loud explosion sound every time you press the button, I had to mute the TV it was getting so annoying!
