I've put together a page containing all the Castle Crashers music from the Audio Portal! I'd like to take a moment to say THANK YOU to everyone who has bought Castle Crashers, making it the fastest selling game in the history of XBox 360 Live Arcade. We couldn't have done it without your support; it's what kept us going for three LONG years. And YES, a title update is on the way to address those pesky networking and save issues.

Also, congrats to Zekey for landing the sweet gig with Weebl's Stuff!

ugh, easy way out SO should've been 1

[Ismael92]

Those movies really deserved the prize.
And Paladin DVD? Great!

[Phil]

Glad to see more stuff coming top the store.

[jjrmet]

Awesome, I watched them all.

[sirtom93]

Awesome, great results.

[Nikenick]

Easy way out should have been the number 1!

I agree with this and not just based on an obvious bias. The art, concept, and fbf animation was all solid on that.

[Iamjohn]

There she is! deserved first place, 100%.

[Bluemidgetguy]

wtf! Epic war and ragdoll cannon didn't place. BULLSHIT!

[Luis]

hopefully this marks the end of the 'awesome' themed stuffs... time for something new dammit.

[FattyWhale]

Only 1 clock day flash in the top 5...so sad :(

I heard you made millions

[36Holla]

Was a Madness Day preloader for 08 released yet? It wouldn't be too hard to change the 07 to an 08 in the existing one, but it would be cool to have be updated and all that jazz.

[Strongbow]

to be honest, I think awesome center redux should've got higher, but the two above it deserved it more.
i'm confused

[mrnihil]

i'm going to make an Awesome Luis, just to spite you.

Tom, you forgot to add Jumper to the Castle Crasher's music page. Might want to get on that, as it is surely a favorite song to people other than myself.

Also, 2 Awesome's in the Top 5? Awesome Racer is deserving, but Awesome Center Redux sucked, I don't understand why everyone thinks Egorapter shits gold, especially when he re-does an older flash.

[Spoopy]

The NG stuff should've been up in the top 5!

Egoraptor shits diamond encrusted gold. That's how awesome he is. You shall bow to him!

Congrats to all the prize winners and well done with Castle Crashers Tom! Too bad you need an Xbox to play it though...

*cough*

PSP release

*cough*

[Fro]

Oh man.. my game won 8th place? That's awesome, but I'm really low on cash as of now and it would of been nice to have been in the top 5. >.< Oh well, congrats to everyone and it was fun voting in the monthly votings for the first time.

[Aksumka]

Congrats to the winners!

And congrats to Tom and the team for the success of CC!

Well, both there she is!! and Easy Way Out were spectacular movies, but I agree. Easy Way Out was best.

AT LEAST THEY DIDNT LOOSE TO AWESOME CENTER AND AWESOME RACER.

And plus Munglai gets to pay rent

Oh, Tom, you're so wise.

[idiot-buster]

I can't wait for madness day!

[COKEHEAD75]

Congratulations to all the best of August!

[M4KBOT]

Congrats to my buddy knugen, he's had one hell of a good few months in terms of winning stuff lol. Let's hope it continues!

most defenitly

[Wonchop]

I see you mentioned Zekey's Weebl position aquirement, ey?
So where was it when I was hired back in February, ey? >=U
(Then again, noone would've cared much. It's at least comforting to know the Fulpster's taking an interest in my posts.)

Fairly typical results for the month. I think HotDiggedy's gonna have some reservations about which one of his movies got top 5.

And I should probably try and think of something for Madness Day fast so I don't end up with more rushed crappery.

[PinballWizard976]

Cheat2Win should have gotten something a little higher IMO, but congrats to the winners

[Shadowii2]

There she is totally deserves it.
Although I'm disapointed again that two Awesome movies got to the top 5 again.
