User Rating: 10 | Castle Crashers X360
Ever since I heard this game was out for the 360 arcade I've wanted to play it and a couple of years later I've gotten the chance and I can say it was well worth the wait. The story is simple and easy to follow, so it doesn't get in the way of the action, although it provides a few golden cutscenes and comedic moments. As a knight guarding a castle, your mission is to travel the land and reclaim the four stolen princesses, as well as the magical crystal this mean jerk raided your castle and stole from the helpless king. You battle and brawl your way through tons of levels, playable characters, tough enemies and bosses, and unique powerups (animal orbs, anyone?) and cool and also silly weapons. The online multiplayer can't be beat as well. If you're looking for an easy pick-me-up game that you will get addicted to in time, look no further than this gem. It's definitely my favorite Xbox Live Arcade game.
