Discussion Alien Hominid Invasion

[GodisanAtheist]

Next Behemoth joint has dropped.

Castle Crashers, Battle block Theater, and Pit People have all been excellent.

We're back to 4 player couch/online co-op side scrolling beat em up action.

I had such an immense amount of fun beating Castle Crashers with my kids over 7 years as they got more dexterous and better at gaming, CC and The Behemoth have a spot in my heart. Remember the day it all clicked and we basically Bulldozed the last 4/5 levels of game in an afternoon and all sat there stunned that it happened and it was over.

Don't normally buy games on release and this won't be an exception. Might wait for a few patches and such to drop before picking it up.

I had a derpy AMD athlon HTPC that I used for a number of years in our living room. I think it was at the tail end of DDR3; I picked up a killer deal at microcenter. They were practically letting the CPU and Mobo out the door for free...but I digress.

It was an APU, but not a particularly strong one. It could run a few games, and chief among them was Castle Crashers. I played it quite a bit with my 4 and 6 year old. Over 5 years later they still ask me about this game. Before I was a dad I had a blast on couch co-op with my buddies in 2009 on the OG Xbox 360.

I know The Behemoth doesn't like to iterate, but man, I would totally buy the shit out of Castle Crashers 2 if it were ever a thing. I hope this game is as fun!
