Heads up: In the video, I refer to the game costing 800 MS Points, but it's actually not:

There's been this whole thing today about it, and I downloaded (and made the video) early this morning, when the game was still marked as 800 Points. Sorry for the confusion, all!

Where art Richard?
Danny @ Apr 22nd 2009 4:47PM
Where's Richard
that's not to say it wasn't good it's just not the same

Agreed, I missed Richard's voice, but luckely David did quite a good job reviewing the game.

My computer is borked. Thus, I have no access to my capturing software. Once I get it repaired, I'll be back on the job. Hopefully won't be too long.

Hey Richard,
Since Zaz is out for another couple of weeks, why can't we get some Hinkle on the Fancast?

Well at least you are not a unicorn. I was really worried there for a moment!

So what is the actual point of puzzle mode then? You didn't make it clear in the video.
David Hinkle @ Apr 22nd 2009 7:00PM
You advance through rooms. The puzzle is you can only solve each room in a certain order. Hope that helps!

Fine job stepping in hinkle, even convinced me to nab it as i shrugged it off when i first heard about it.

Found it interesting but not for 1200. Will pass

This has been on my radar since first announced. When I went to download it before work this morning (5:30), it was only 800 MP ...

So, I stayed awake for L4D's DLC.. I couldn't stay up for this but I ended up buying it as soon as I woke up for 1200pts - wish I would've waited. Oh well.

No thanks, not for 1200.

I remember playing Lode Runner on the Apple IIe. I wasn't any good at the game back then, and I have a emulator with it, now. I'm still no good, so the video only opened old wounds of the many deaths. So, I doubt I'll get this.

this game should be 800 points. I was gonna buy it but its already corrected. How stupid. Ever since braid ms likes the 1200 point range. Ill wait until it drops to 800.
