Just noticed there is no thread for this yet, game is out on Wednesday for both Vita & PS3.

IGN video review is up, looks very promising![http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/04/08/guacamelee-review]

Does look great. I know it's been in the works for a while but I didn't realise it was out quite so soon!

5 and half hours for 70% sounds plenty long to me, you're talking another couple to mop things up then as well.

I bloody love Metroidvania style stuff. Long train journey on Saturday morning that this will be perfect for

Looks amazing! Cross-buy certainly sweetens the deal. I plan to play it on Vita but will no doubt try the 2 player co-op on PS3.

I've made the mistake of looking at done of the trailers. I think I'm going to have to buy it now

can't wait for Terraria and Killzone. Not heard about this until today.

Can't wait to pick this up. As soon as I saw Drinkbox were involved, was day 1 for me.

Another 9/10 review.

I do want this game, but I've got so many unplayed PSN games. Will see what the price is and check out the demo.

At the end of the day it's not like there's going to be any stock issues ;-)

I'm off to London this weekend, so this may well be the perfect train journey game.

Despite the amazing reviews, I think I'll hold off, as I have quite a few games to play on my Vita, and with Terraria and Soul Sacrifice (pre-ordered) coming soon, I don't want to over-burden myself ^_^

Unless they do a Plus discount, then I'll be all over this.

Assume we're looking at a �9.99 price point?

I think there will be a day one Plus discount. It was mentioned by one of the mods on the NA PS blog. Probably only 10%, but it's better than nothing.

According to the EU PS Blog, this will be �9.99 with a further 20% off for Plus members for the first 2 weeks. Bargain!

Yep - that'll do it.

Just take my money, dammit!

I think that's because it's just a key to unlock the trial version.

@Gregolution You'll have to manually search for it, then it'll pop up.

I'm about an hour into this so far and it's fantastic! Lovely crisp 1080p presentation on the PS3 version, great music and a lot of fun so far. Not tried it on the Vita yet, will be downloading that for the weekend.

For 8 quid you can't really go wrong.

I know, but I'm utterly crap at resisting buying digital games I've been looking forward to, even if I clearly don't have time to play said game. But then, they're so cheap and bitesize, and I justify it to myself that a game might cost �8, but I'll spend that probably twice over weekly on junk food and sweets from the newsagents around the corner from home.

I'll probably buy it too - plus the fact that there's a couple of quid left in my wallet is a bonus.

@Angry_Man_Dan

Cheers mate, got it. I had searched for 'guaca' earlier and it didn't find anything. Great search functionality

Looks good, sounds great.

Not sure it's going to live up to Mutant Blobs.

Deleted user 10 April 2013 14:36:50

I thought mutant blobs was shite, will I get on with this?
