wait wait wait what's this about a 9pm pst release?
Don't ask me, Live Arcade games always come out when it's 11 AM here, and now it's 1.42 AM.
It's like - 8 hours, so i'm going to get some sleep now.

I doubt it will come out in 2-3 hours...
 
OMG, I just realised i'm capped and this is coming out tonight!! NoOoOoOOoO!! Might have to take HDD to a mate's place to download if he doesn't get it.

So with that character/weapon select screen in the OP, are all those characters/weapons unlocked from the start (the ones we have pics of)? I don't know if I want all those characters cuz unlocking all this stuff will be one of the best things about the game. That crazy bear with bloody paw print has to be one of the coolest characters i've ever seen and should have his own game!

Does anyone know what sort of movesets we get/unlock? I hope there are atleast 4-5 different combos cuz that's one huge problem i've had with beat-em-ups of old....not enough moves. I know you can level up in this game but do you get new moves/combos each time you level up or how does it work? Sorry I don't actually wanna read the OP cuz there seems to be so much info I don't want any spoilers so i'm just asking a couple of questions I don't really consider spoiler material.

So does anyone know ~when XBLA games are put up? I've never actually waited for one...

i was able to DL the Geo Wars 2 demo (and presumably unlock the full game) just after 12AM est the day it was released. so im going on the assumption that i will be able to do the same with CC tonight. hopefully im not setting my hopes too high. we'll see for sure in about 4 hours.

*i just accepted the friend requests a few of you sent me. thanks guys.

5:00am EST is usually when XBLA games are released, but a few have come out earlier, around midnight.

As i said, game will be up in 8-9 hours.
Maybe before, if what Daigoro says is correct.

But that countdown is not to be trusted: mine says 99 days 99 hours etc., spinning at max speed like the whole site is going crazy.

i'd be up for it if you started an hour earlier. i can't go to bed much later than midnight central. so i'd be available from 10-12.

I'm taking a Lunesta and going to bed @ 8:45pm and walking up at 4:45am to DL it and play it until I have to go to work @ 6am.

Might have trouble sleeping tho because they roofers are working upstairs.

My CC clock ends at midnight too. But it might just be the flash they wrote, unspecific about time, just date.

either way..we better get some good co-op matches going tonight / tomorrow morning.

I just checked and it's not up on the UK Marketplace.

I've been able to download a couple of games early before because the banner ads are put up early, so might happen here.

So by the looks of this thread, people don't exactly know when it's coming out. Hrm. Regardless, I'm gonna stay up a bit late for this. :D
 
From the DevBlog

We just keep staring at the clock waiting for it to reach 12AM. Even though the game won’t be out until 1AM, or 2AM, or some other time. In the past week I’ve heard about 300 different time slots from just about everyone so I don’t even know anymore.

Sooooooooo, PLACE YOUR BETS.

Well, do the Behemoth devs even know? Isn't it in the hands of MS at this point?

I'm praying that it pops up on XBLM early, like GW2 did.

It is normally at 10AM BST, but some games have been up at 9AM. That's +5 EST and +8 PST.

In this day and age of midnight releases for all sorts of media I'm still confused on the handling of XBLA and downloadable content not having the same treatment.

So im off work (finally) and find out i've got calculus homework. I guess I can go ahead and knock that out tonight...right? :lol

At the same time I still need to put the finishing touches on my Castle Crashers VS and co-op/Single player beat em up playlists.

EDIT: So are we can invite each other from the GAF crashers metatag right?

That might actually increase sales by a bit.

Don't ask me how...I'm sleepy. :(

Any list of people who plan on playing it tonight going yet?

No, but if you look at the last 2 pages you'll find us brave souls who are going to try and wait for the unveiling :)
 
hope they do a midnight release, I'm staying up for this but hopefully not to long. GT is george21000

edit: I clicked on the link in the OP to add myself to the GAF CC list, hope it worked

Bingo.

So, as of right now, do we have GAFfers on duty checking the store every few minutes or what?
