Super Meat Boy!

Post by jfe2 »

My head is going to explode right now... that is how awesome this game is! It's challenging, addictive, and the humor in the game is perfect! Not only has it established Super Meat Boy as one of the most entertaining modern video game characters right now, but the inclusion of other indie-game characters as unlockables has actually really got me interested in playing their respective games. I didn't know what Gish was before, but I want to play it now!

Super Meat Boy video review from IGN

It's out on XBLA now, and it comes out on WiiWare next month. GET IT!!!

I was watching it thinking damm this looks like Jumper (Indy game made in Game Maker) and it turns out Ogmo (the character from jumper) is a playable character.

very interesting platformer (especially when the IGN guy said "you will die a lot"). can't wait to demo it out.

Heads up, if you buy it now on XBLA it's only 800 points as opposed to 1200. Apparently it's on sale for a bit, but the price is going to go up soon according to the devs.

I'm looking to get this and Limbo this weekend when I get some more points. I need to find something else to spend a few more points on in order to get the bonus 800 points for spending 2400 in October. Maybe I'll finally pick up Braid.

The game actually plays similarly to N+.
