Title: Rocket Riot on XBLA
Post by: AdmiralViscen on June 18, 2009, 11:30:00 AM

Trying the demo out now.

Does anyone know how long it takes for game codes to go up on Amazon? I wanna use my free points by the 30th.

It's solid, but I'm not sold on it if I have to actually pay money. It's sorta like a fast paced Worms mixed with that freeware PC game ARC

I tried it out.  It kinda reminds me of a really loose version of Bangai-o.

btw, The Bigs 2 demo is on XBL also

Yea, it's a shame there isn't more going on gameplay wise. The multiplayer might save it but they don't even let you try that.

I wish they'd let you press RT to fire or something so you don't have to keep flicking the stick.

Is magic worth it demi? Do you get a good pool of card for 800 pts or do you have to pay the cardboard equivalent for opening packs?

I already play the cardboard game

the decks are pretty weak, and you cant really customize them besides unlocking cards for that specific deck. there's co-op but no online co-op. its only $10 but it is ok.

I tried the demo and got bored with it before the demo cut me off. Pass.
