The reason why I am making this thread is because Castle Crasher owns. It does. It really, really does.

Why does it own? Well for starters, it was made by the same people who made Alien Hominid. Newgrounds developer made this game on that site, made it big with the PS2 port, and finally created Castle Crashers in 2008 for Xbox Live Arcade.

Now, it's been two years, and the Playstation family get's a bite out of this. Complete with minigames not found in the Xbox version! Vollyball, and Team Deathmatch! *

*= Granted, I never played the full extent of the Xbox version. So please, feel free to correct me if those two additions are not on the Arcade package.

From experience. This game is great. Buy it. Have a PS3? Purchase the PS3 version. Already own it and you have an Xbox? Buy it twice, because it is well worth it.

So like I said with the "What games are you playing" thread. Byte and I just beat this game.

We started at around 10PM EST and we beaten it at 2 this morning. So the time it takes to beat this game is about 4 hours.

But then you have to unlock all of the characters, find all of the items, find / buy all of the weapons, and find / buy all of the creatures. Plus, there is a flurry of additional content to play around with. Like Arena mode, and the PSN's vollyball mode. Finally, get every character to lvl 99 so you can dominate with your friends online.

After the game was over I decided to take a look at some dev stuff and it seems there are some problems. Nothing too big just something the developers will be able to patch at a later date:

- Matchmaking still sucks. I never played Arena mode, so I can't really say for certain. according to a lot of people they are having problems connecting in Arena mode. This is supposedly a big problem on XBL.

- Magic spells are insanely hard to hit people. Now this I can get behind. During my playthrough with Byte, I am sure he can agree that I was trying my best to hit some enemies with my magic. Hell, I tried to on him and 90% of the time it was miss.

- Most animal powerups don't work. The dev's themselves have announced this problem and are looking for a fix as soon as possible.

That's about it really. I might do a review of this game soon if people are interested in it.

E- HUH! I just found out that both of the DLC that was available on the XBox version are already included with the PSN version. How do I know? There is a little place you can go to buy the two creatures and weapons (Next to challenge mode). But be warned: They are expensive!

Golden Mace- 2500 Gold (+2 STR)
Golden Sword- 3600 gold (+4 STR. +3 MAG, -3 AGL)
Chainsaw- 3600 gold (+4 Def)

Pelter- 5500 Gold
Dragonhead- 5500 Gold

Right now I'm trying to do all of the arenas to get all the characters and I'm trying to find some of the secret pets. I'm going to level up a lot more then we can try to beat the game on insane and maybe get 2 more people to help. I also might have a mic by then, not too sure. I think the hit detection with the magic spells and attacks is part of the game because on the xbox version unless you were precisely lined up with enemy you wouldn't have hit them. Also, my one experience with matchmaking was pretty good. I got into match pretty quick, but that was on normal castle crashers so maybe it's different for arena
