We managed to play for hours two nights in a row with 4 players with headsets on. Talking the entire time. I've yet to manage to play a game with randoms, but with 3 friends; not one problem yet.
If you think that CC has issues; you should try playing Worms online on XBLA. It's an absolute fucking nightmare. As one player joins the lobby another is kicked. This goes on for about 15-20 minutes, you play half a game and it then kicks everyone. Next gen gaming has never been som good(!)
Eventually got to buy it last night after the wife finally went to bed. Played for a few hours with 3 players.
Only one word can describe it: Awesome!
It's like a good version of Golden Axe (which at the time seemed good, but is crap nowadays) with excellent levelling. The crapping animals are extremely cool and the bosses are awesome. I only managed to get two achievements, so lots more work to do. Shoud hopefully complete it today.
Wednesday is going to be pretty awesome. I've got the hype spread about my office too.
Any idea if XBLA games are released by local time or worldwide by US time? I'm hoping that I'll be able to get it at bang on 00:01GMT on the day, but everyone knows that all publishers hate Europe, so we'll probably have to wait 'til your time, which means I wont get it until I get home from work. That makes me a sad dude :*(
:: We've finally announced the Castle Crashers release date! It will be hitting Xbox 360 Live Arcade on Wednesday, August 27th, two days before the Penny Arcade Expo.
Any news on the cost yet? I'm curious if you set that or if Microsoft have the final say.

Speaking of treadmills, does anyone else try to get in shape for public NG meets, or am I just that vain? I think it all started when someone said I was getting fat in a picture. Now I try to ramp up my exercise routine whenever I'll be appearing in public. The total number of "photo ops" throughout the year results in a pretty consistent schedule! Although at the end of the day I need to do it for ME and not care what other people think.
Dude, you're making me feel bad for not using my gym membership. We have a gym at work that costs £10 a year. Yeah, you read that right; £10 (about $20) a year. It's not a fancy gym, but I really should make more effort to get up onto the top floor and use it. My lager lump is gaining momentum and the wife isn't best pleased...
When you import the video, Flash brings up a menu asking if you want to import the sound as well as the video and warns you that synching is cack unless you do it seperately. Select the no audio option when you import it.
I can't be 100%, but can't you export as MOV in 5? You can certainly export as AVI. Both are usable on youtube.
When you're exporting, change the Save File Type to MOV. Viola; quicktime. If that's not an option, use AVI or MPG. (not sure if youtube takes mpg, but can't see why not)

Didnt look like that part was even rotoscoped. looks too smooth. looks like video that was trace bitmapped or whatever.
Or like 3D? Because it was :)
Bastard synching took ages and is still miles off and shitty, more so towards the end.
That and all the lies (borrowed from world of stuart): 1. "The PS3 is to be launched simultaneously in the three major gaming territories - North America, Asia and Europe." http://www.ps3focus.com/archives/196
I'm not surprised not to win considering the effort that went into the winners. The winners were pretty tight (The preloader was especially good) Congrats to all 4 winners.

I've sent out the preview to those who asked, but I kidna have a mini bomb to drop.
The person who made the last part, wants it 'revoked.' He feels that his part doesnt meet up to the standards that the rest of the collab set, and would rather see someone else with more skill to end up the collab. I'm going to try to see if I can talk Granfloon into rejoining, and if he's too buzy, then maybe JAZZA, and if he's too busy, there are a lot of other options.
Downside... it wont be out this week. I think that the end result will be more beneficial to us if we wait and have a home run ending than if we submit now, for those of you thinking, "Submit it anyway!"
Please dont eat my head and burn my carcas.... I need those...
Here's an idea:
1- Send a link to the last part mp3 to everyone involved.
2- Set a miniscule deadline, 2/3 days and best one makes it in.
3- Collab finito.
4- Have a dance.
