All work and no play makes Mikey … ‘SPLODE!!!

I’m between video games right now, so I thought that I’d take a look at what’s available in the Xbox Live Arcade.  There was one game that caught my eye, simply because of the name.  As you may have guessed from the title of this post, that game is ‘Splosion Man.

Ladies and gentlemen – let me be clear:  If you have not yet played this game, stop doing whatever you’re doing and go play the demo.  All the way through.  I’ll wait.

Done yet?  Ok, now buy the game and play the rest of it.  Seriously.

This is one of the best games I’ve played in the last 5 years – and I’m completely serious about that.  For me, this game is right up there with Portal, with the wonderfully odd plot and the amazingly quirky music.

What a fantastic game!
