A throw back to the hack and slash or old, with a funny, vibrant, new coat of paint to show.

User Rating: 9.5 | Castle Crashers PS3
So it was 2 years before I got a PS3 after this game came out, I really wanted to play it, the characters were brimming with personality, and the bosses were something truly unique, when I finally got it I was amazed at how all of my expectations were met. The story is basic but fun, a wizard steals a kingdoms' crystal and 4 princesses, 4 multicolored knights have to go rescue them. On their way to the wizard's fortress they'll meet bandits, polar bears, zombies, skeletons, aliens, desert nomads, and robots. While there is the option to play it alone, it's much more fun to play with multiple people. Single-player is very hard and it's good to have someone watching your back. You can either play multiplayer locally or over Playstation Network. Don't believe what other people tell you about the online multiplayer, IT WORKS! You can either set up a lobby or join a game. You can even have someone play locally while another person is playing online at the same time. So if you're on the fence about whether or not to get a second sixaxis, this should be the reason to get it. Thank Tom Fulp for being so great.
