Hard sure is a lot harder than I thought it was. D:

I really like the music, but I dig that kind of stuff anyway so whatever. I just have to learn how to read the notes because being used to the Playstation Dual Shock has made me forget the color pattern for the 360 Pad.

This is really cool though, highly recommended.

I play with the direction keys shown on screen, but I still use the buttons. That way you simply press the button that faces left/right/whatever. You get the best of both world, no memorization of the colors, and no 360 dpad bullshit.
 
That's what I've been doing but it's still a little weird to me. Then again I only played for twenty minutes so I'm sure I'll get it down soon enough.

Also what's with the different fireworks? How exactly do you use them, or are they bonus run effects?

Overall I agree, this is the perfect kind of XBLA title. Not to bitch over the price, but for an 800pt title, ten songs is JUST A TAD stingy. Even an even dozen would have felt better. The DLC music had better be reasonably priced packages.

Am I crazy or are there 11 songs? I thought I had one song left when I got the 10 song achievement...
 
I still can't get no guitar hero here in Greece, hopefully it will come next week, so boom-boom it is for now :)

looks pretty good.
 
I just tried out this game. I'm going to pass on it. It felt meh to me. I was hoping Double Dragon would be out, so hopefully next week it does make it out.
 
Am I really the only one who finds it funny that the BBR logo uses the same font as the DDR logo?

Somebody at Bizarre has a sense of humor.
 
While I'm not all that impressed with BBR's DDR-minus-the-pad gameplay, I have to say the music visualizer is pretty cool. Works really well with, pardon the potential pun, Explosions in the Sky.
 
The thing that makes me mad about that game is the fact that I can purchase Super Monkey Ball for cheaper and get a superior game of pool.
 
Hmmm. This is pretty good. Golf will hopefully be awesome. Trailer looks sweet as hell but hopefully there is enough content. The space level rocks.

Gyruss, no. But at least its out of the pipeline, with a good game so this week will be solid. Catan next week. /has been saying that for months
 
Wait a sec....Bankshot Billiards is 1200 pts? Seriously? I own it because it came with my XBL Gold package so I never really knew the price. That's just freakin' crazy. That game isn't worth 400 pts let alone 1200.
 
Minigolf is showing up in the Genres filters in the Live Arcade games section but not in new releases.

No sign of Gyruss yet.

beat me to it, just hunted it down, go play demo then probably buy (unless its horrible) as this shoul be a blast online :D d

Lot of fun so far, tho some of the maps wreck my brain :D

The map editor feature should provide some laughs too.

Now for online, anyone in for a game?

(ps teh first sound when I started the game made me giggle!)
 
I've created a player match for those who want to join. It's likely the only one up but my GT is QVT for anyone who wants to play.
 
I ain't got the points, but Golf seems great. Only 3 holes in the demo, but the last one really shows promise. 36 holes total kinda sucks though, hopefully the create a course mode works online and such. Oh and it's really cool to see a single person on the leaderboard.

P.S. Gyruss is crap. Really bad Galaga meets Tempest or something game. And I can't seem to get Jetpac to download, I get an error right at the end.
