Demo seemed much harder than the previous demo.

Community demo was alright, but it seemed more like a game that some guy working at MS was like "woah, this is hot.  I'll tell the right people and we'll make it a full on XBLA game" even though it never really should've been anything more than a 400 point community game.  Not bad, but I'm not paying $10 for it.

Then again there have been worse offenders of this logic like FLOW.

not sure about that Bepbo. The combat and strategies are quite a lot deeper than the game lets on firstly, and the general level of game design is up quite high up in terms of quality. This is what Castle Crashers should have been really (in regards to combat at least)

Yeah, it has some depth and a good-sized movelist.  I just don't feel the combat much.  Better than Castle Crashers combat for sure though.  CC combat is soooooo shallow; you have like 5 moves over a 5 hour game.

um... the reason this is on XBLA is because the creator won that contest. Dream Build Play or something. it was showcased at GDC.

It was really disappointing because the art and set pieces in Castle Crashers were awesome.

Yeah.  I like CC, but I just wish it had a movelist like Guardian Heroes.

I'm gonig to be horribly shallow and say that I'll almost certainly opt for Castle Crashers over Dishwasher. CC feels more like they're emulating Golden Axe and Renegade/Kunio-Kun style gameplay, with an overlay of delicious roleplaying advancement. Dishwasher feels more like the old coin-up Shinobi as "re-imagined" with bad ballpen and Sharpie marker art from the battered Pee-Chee Folder of a pubescent Korn fan.
