Just a note, the soundtrack to this game is beautiful.

Just about finished this. A bit of fun while there is nothing new out at retail ever any more. Narrator is a clever trick, albeit a once off and I don't want to see every other Live game try it out for size. Fairly uncomplicated kasplattery type game, passes the time and better than any of its ilk that I can think of (deathspank etc). EDGE probably like it because of the challenges and the shrines to increase difficulty in many ways, what with EDGE being ApolloMagazine.
If in doubt, put the kettle on.

Played it again last night, already got the full 200/200 but it's just phenomenal.

I'm in, when it's on sale.
We need to learn when to say "enough", rather than gluttonously devouring more and more of the same thing through sheer force of habit.

Played the demo.
What an adorable game. Lovely graphics, and whilst as Clown said I wouldn't want to see it become a fashion, the narrator is priceless. laconic, funny and informative. Off to buy some points tomorrow so I can play on my day off..

Been playing this recently (Got it in a sale a while ago) and I'm loving it. It looks and sounds fantastic and it plays really well too. Even though the combat is pretty simple it feels really fresh and it's just a joy to play.

Same here DD, tis great fun to play in between shooting the crap out of everything.
And anyone who didn't get it cos the narrator got on there nerves: he doesn't narrate all the way through game, only at key points in the game.

I've finished it twice now. The second playthrough was new game plus and I did every level bar 3 in one sitting heh, so much fun. Loved the Narrator too, listened to every word said. Think I'd say this is my favourite XBLA game.
