This is the first I've seen on this game (searched here first!).

It looks pretty awesome to me.  Anyone play it?

IGN had one a couple of days ago. 7.5.

My son and I liked the demo and bought the game. Only played it a little bit so far but it's quite a bit of fun, and looks like there is a lot to unlock.

Cool, keep us updated.  I am going to try the demo out tonight.

I'm experiencing a lot of framerate stutter, which is something the IGN reviewer mentioned. I'm going to download the full game again and see if that helps. I'm not sure if I noticed that in the demo or not.

I played the Avatar mode online, pretty funny watching your avatar head get bigger and bigger as you amass kills.

I was wondering what the heck that game was, when I saw someone on my Friend's list playing "Madballs in Babo: Invasion" - was it you, Bullwinkle?   icon_confused

It doesn't sound like my cup of tea, however, I'm glad I checked it out - because it is exactly right for a friend of mine, so I'll pass on the info - thanks!

It was me.  Or I, if I'm working the grammar.  And you were playing...let me see if I can remember...hmm...what could Myto have been playing...started with an S...it was a sequel...there was an "acred" in there somewhere...nope, can't remember.  Must have been a new game for you, then.   icon_wink

I didn't buy it, but it's pretty good for what it was.  I like exploring levels and there's a lot to find, but there seem to be too many can't-go-back incidents for my taste.  I also failed the first level on easy.  That may have more to do with being tired, so I may give it another go.
