    Absolutely fantastic game that gladly brings back the old 2D, side-scrolling beat-em up. Good work, Behemoth games.

    Only Castle Crashers can make animals pooping to fly funny.

    It's an interesting game. In that part with the giant cat...uh, thing you have to escape on some deer. One of those deer is propelled by poop that is spewing out of it rather than it's legs. It's hilarious.

    Wow, I see my friends play this game all the time. After watching this review, I really want to try out the trial. I might even end up purchasing this game. Good review.

    I'm a PS3 player but I have a 360 too for a few games.

    I played the demo for this and liked it a lot.

    Looks like a really nice game, certainly changed my look on "Arcade games". Love the resuscitation and the eye looking through the door, makes me feel like I'll be playing inside a cartoon episode!!

  • Starwolf64

    Posted Sep 23, 2008 1:21 am PT

    Wow. Was that a person reviewing this or was it done with microsoft speech? I hope Mr.Roboto here doesn't start doing gamespot reviews full time, because I nearly fell to sleep during this review. Only because something looks good on paper doesn't mean it will sound good in real life.

    Gotta be the worst review I have watched on here.

  • ascalon94

    Posted Sep 14, 2008 12:12 pm PT

    wats up with the guys voice it seems like a damn commercial but im thinking about buying the game i wish it wasnt 15 dollars tho... anyways im starting to see why ppl hate gamestop these days its getting bad i guess the wide format isnt going to save it.. this reminds me of the downfall of E3

    played though the whole thing... awesome game (probably the game you will have the most fun with in 2008 )! it does have a few lacking elements and the online part of the game is a pain in the a** and sucks out loud.
    but if u got a few game pads and some friends, its awesome =)

  • Djmaster214

    Posted Sep 9, 2008 9:07 am PT

    The review guy is alright seems a lil excited. The game is freaking awesome though I had more fun with it then i did GTA4

  • KamikazeDonut

    Posted Sep 8, 2008 3:41 pm PT

    The only reviewer I don't like is the guy who reviewed Alone in the Dark he seemed too opinionated and he did'nt exactly do anything really funny....*sigh* I miss Greg and the gang.

  • anthonyboden

    Posted Sep 7, 2008 9:54 pm PT

    Sweeeet looks like that little fighters game except better...cbk

  • sealover8

    Posted Sep 6, 2008 6:02 pm PT

    Ughh, why does this guy over dramatize everything he says? 'Sides that, good review.

  • Jshaw71

    Posted Sep 6, 2008 10:25 am PT

    the game looks like loads of fun, i was thinking about getting it, i hope the online play problems are ironed out soon, i'd love to see a port to the ds, or psp, thanks for the reveiw guys...

    I wonder how much gamespot was paid to post this

  • thomas10soa

    Posted Sep 4, 2008 12:20 pm PT

    its getting to the point that i dont care about gamespot anymore

  • FelisLeo1980

    Posted Sep 3, 2008 1:17 pm PT

    To me this seems more like an advertisement than a objective game review.

  • CaptainFelix

    Posted Sep 2, 2008 4:33 pm PT

    That was the worst review I've seen on gamespot. they should just hire microsoft sam, at least his absence of tone is forgivable

  • eddienom

    Posted Sep 2, 2008 12:40 pm PT

    great review!!!

  • papochini

    Posted Sep 2, 2008 10:20 am PT

  • Forceman25

    Um he got fired and now is running a GOOD website giantbomb.com

  • rkk667

    Posted Sep 1, 2008 11:01 pm PT

    Good display of what Castle Crashers is. I did not learn if it is fun though or why I should buy it. Or not. "The net code might be fixed later" notwithstanding.

  • nights_team2k7

    Posted Sep 1, 2008 7:13 pm PT

    that video review was dumb, the guy wasn't even objective at all and was way too dramatic and dry at the same time. How in the hell do you pull that off?

  • Forceman25

    Posted Sep 1, 2008 6:34 pm PT

    I miss the old GameSpot where watch video reviews was actually interest and not so damn cut and dry. Everyone here should go to giantbomb.com to watch good video reviews.
