Hey there 
this is a quick shout-out followed by a review.
As MANY of you may know, I've been writing reviews for some months now, featuring Destroy All Humans, Fracture, Age of Mythology, Frontlines: Fuel of War and many more
I am VERY proud to announce that I DID get my own site.
Now for the review:
Well, since recently re-acquiring Xbox Live a couple of weeks ago, I decided to trawl through the countless demo?s on there. One which stood out to me was a quirky little game called ?Splosion Man?. And I may as well say this now. That game is fun.
Having only played the demo version, I personally cannot tell you a great deal about the story line, though fear not, a game like this really doesn?t need one, and infact, having a full story line would only ruin this game instead of bettering it.
The gameplay is simple, fun, but oddly challenging at times, and I sometimes found my self grinning at the pure genius behind it all. Of the current new generation, some may say that Valve?s Portal was the first game to really break the ice at being purely fun and simple. Well if that?s the case, then you can also safely say that Splosion Man is the second game to ?break the ice?.
The full game will consist of 50 games of ?sploding fun?, which really will be genuine fun (to splode is to jump, then explode to either propel yourself or destroy people/object in generally a hilarious manner).
There is also an multiplayer aspect to the game, of up to 4 players. I have never played it, but from what I saw of videos from the developers, it seems to be who can get to the finish point the quickest.
Basic information about the game:
Price: 800 MS points (this needs to be verified)
Developer: Twisted Pixel Games
Overall rating: 9.2/10
Now some may say "that's not enough", but fear not, that is merely half of a two part review.
If you've liked what you've seen so far, please check my blog, which allows me to respond to feedback more, its www.headshotgaming.wordpress.com other than that, stay tuned for more posts
