Never heard of this, but it looks great.
-
hometown developers represent :rock
edit: holy shit these guys are like eight blocks from my house
-
go get us some free codes, tell them we'll review it on the show
if they ask you how many listeners we have, cough to obscure the number
-
Tell them Hollywood hot shot would also like to review this product.
-
Looks like either Batallion Wars (Wii/GC) or Valkyria Chronicles
Havent played either
-
Oh shit, Bothell! Get a team in Issaquah and the circle will be complete or something
-
Amazing that I know all these places from another forum - Bothel, Tulalip (sp?), Woodenville.
-
This looks awesome. Reminds me of The Outfit, and I used to play that a lot with my old roommate.
wait, it's a tower defense game?
-
Comes out Wednesday.

It looks cool, but low odds of buying it up against BC2, Borderlands DLC, and Perfect Dark.
Also this week's XBLA deal of the week is the most pathetic yet. Gears of War avatar outfit for only $3!
-
Toy Soldiers is a strategy game, but really at its core it’s simply a tower defense-style game, where you must repel waves of incoming enemies by setting up turrets and other weapons emplacements along the pathway to your base.
FFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I can't say no to these games. *opens wallet* :(
-
me either. i dont like the idea of third person shooting but I love the setting

Yeah, when I saw that today, it read more like an insult than a "deal" :lol

From that review it sounds like it will be cool for controlling tanks and planes, but I doubt that I'll be controlling the towers too often.

That's waht this is? Forget it then. I thought it was gonna be like Valkyria Chronicles or Battalion Wars, but competitive.

Seriously, a not-low price for a not-new game for a not-good feature? How can I interpret this as anything but a fuck you?

No hating on tower defense games! It's my 2nd favorite newly discovered genre this gen, right after 2D fighters. >:(
-
Yeah, I'm tired of tower defense games. Also, I think this was a poor move on Microsoft's part to release the game the same week as Bad Company 2 or the same month as Perfect Dark (which will dominate XBLA for awhile).
-
Tower Defense? More like fucking waste of my time! Boom!
-
Ew, tower defense. Nnnnope. *checks watch* Is it March 17 yet
-
I'll probably get this, the only TD-style game I own is Plants vs. Zombies. Plus, you get to fly and drive tanks, and I like the setting. It has a hard mode where none of the cannons or towers will fire unless you're manning them.
-
:piss TD haters :piss2

The guys who made Carcassonne on XBLA were based out of Issaquah. Too bad they're got shut down after the Blizzard-Activision merger.

you getting DA: Awakening, Demi?

I sold DAO off, and it is required to play it.
GF doesnt send out expansion discs like this, so unless I get a hookup or something, I wont be playing it.
Did I get my date wrong? I was referring to Perfect Dark, btw.
-
Reminds me of Warhawk. Which isn't a bad thing.

oh, I forgot Perfect Dark was coming out on the 17th... I assumed you were referring to DA Awakening
me dumb :duh
-
yeah, this is totally like The Outfit, only you can't play as the infantry units and single player is tower defense.
-
Neat little game. Very well animated.
People should try out the demo
http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/games/media/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d8025841099e/?of=1
I think it would do better at $10 rather than $15 but its still pretty good by XBLA standards.
-
Yeah, I liked what I played in the demo. This game will be mine.
