It looks really interesting but I'm worried the gameplay wont keep me engaged, what do you guys think? the gameplay is definitely more involving and entertaining than any other action RPG i've played. there's definitely enough depth to the combat to keep you satisfied with at least 1 playthrough. | ||

Thanks for the input, I was just worried the combat would be bland hack and slash but I take it that there is some rhyme and reason. Everything about this game sounds like its worth $15 | ||

(i won't play solo twice) there are combat arenas with leaderboards but I'm not sure how well that works (played with xbox offline the whole time). | ||

Watch for a good review of it, if somewhat harsh. I'm waiting for the PC version, so can't comment yet, but I'm quite excited. Sweet! thanks, i love zero punctuation, Bastion comes out on the PC tomorow,and From Dust the 17th. Both were delayed almost a month with the XBLA versions out before the pc versions, lets just hope they optimized it for the pc versions! | ||

From what I recall from talking to the creative director, he said that Bastion on PC runs Nativly on 1080p and they remapped all the controls specifically for PC. | ||

I'm also glad it looks to actually be a good game, because the main reason I'm buying it is because Greg Kasavin made it lol. | ||

Used to watch all his gamespot reviews. | ||

The wired works out the box though. Amazon sells official controllers very cheap. Retail is almost double price. Amazon has the fake ones for an insane price of 27.99$. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000HZFCT2/ref=redir_mdp_mobile/187-5707680-7113769p Basically you can just get a wired controller for the same price. | ||

It's actually like a 5 man team, giantbomb.com had a series of making of videos about the game for months before it's release, fascinating stuff. You meet the narrator too, he seems like a really cool dude. | ||
