Castle Crashers King Pack out today Comments by Oli Welsh

Too little too late.

Hmm... I have to admit that CC died for me after the first playthrough. Sega should do a 4-player Streets of Rage 4 instead. Or rather: a decent studio should get the license and do it for them.

What does Pelter do!?!? I must purchase.

I still have a lot of fighting to do in CC. For 2 euro I will bite.

My six-year-old son has been pestering me for this DLC for about three months solid. He's absolutely obsessed with the game, and has completed it, single-handed, over ten times and unlocked every single character. He even writes his own Castle Crashers comic books. He'll be very happy when he comes home from school - though he'll demand to know where the Necromancer is.

160 M$ Points for an unlock key to something you already paid 1200 M$ Points for?

Can you spell RIP OFF people!?

RIPFF

no wait...

RPOFF

PRFOO

dammit.....

I guess not ;)

Purchased :)

How come nobody's spitting out vicious promises of vengeance if this doesn't include an update to fix the save-wipe bug?

Regardless, I (and my kids) join Whitehead Jr. in having waited bloody months for this, even if it is only half of what we'd hoped for.

"How come nobody's spitting out vicious promises of vengeance if this doesn't include an update to fix the save-wipe bug? "

That was fixed with previous patch.

I'll personally collect their heads if they don't... oh, never mind then.

Yes, it's hyphenated so it's rup-off.

Damn. My up-arrow and delete keys are brokzn!

What makes you think it's already in the game? It's a cheap little pack that adds a few new weapons a new pet and a couple of new playable characters, note the 'playable' distinction, the king may already be in the game (may be, is it the old guy with the four hawt daughters?) but that doesn't mean he's fully animated and capable of jumping, swimming and so on.

DLC like this suckers me back into these games that otherwise linger half completed (well 75% completed) so I'll buy it for a couple of bucks; The Behemoth can consider it a tip for a great little game.

Edit: just so you know, it's -200 Taking-You-Seriously points when you write M$. It's a bit sad, in fact it's "LOL, I have a T-shirt with Bill Gates as a Borg, LOL!" sad.

What next? $ony? ¥tendo? Bli$$ard? Erm... Ubi$oft? You get the idea. It's a slippery slope which will eventually lead to all company names being simply replaced by a string of currency symbols and a lot of confusion.

is the MP patch out?

> That was fixed with previous patch.

It was? Oh. I'll let them off then. Haven't actually connected to Live (sorry, LIVE) in God knows how long...
