Summer of Arcade: 'Splosion Man

Why hello, it's been a while. Fairly too much to blog about, so I'll just make this primarily about 'Splosion Man, the greatest Arcade game of all time!

On a side note, I've been taking sort of a break from gamerscore in general and playing games I really enjoy a lot more. Which has it's faults, because now a ton of people are creeping up on me, including Cru. Rest assured though, I'll never let her pass me. =P

Back to topic: We've all been awaiting 'Splosion Man ever since they replaced it with TMNT Re-Shelled a couple weeks ago. When I heard it was from the makers of The Maw, I admit, I was excited. They give away free premium themes after all, amiright?

Well there's no shortage of free premium themes, gamerpics and yes, even avatar props. Check out these pics of the free theme: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

I purchased the game earlier today, and played a little of the online multiplayer, and it's one of the greatest things to ever exist. If you have no clue what 'Splosion Man is, it's a lot like N+, with a little extra awesome.

After we had some fun in the co-op, I spent a few hours (5 1/2 to be exact) completing the Single-Player. Which is VERY challenging is some of the later levels. I did eventually complete it though, and to my surprise witnessed one of the greatest endings in a video game, ever. Here is a little sneak-peak: Here

I honestly couldn't ask for a better way to start Summer of Arcade off.
