I have been following this for over a year on Giant Bomb, the making off stuff they have is great. I am very much looking forward to tomorrow.

Played the demo. It was decent. Although i wont be buying. It seems you cant die in it either. I allowed my health to get low and it just asked me to carry on from the exact spot i died at. I then did it later and it was the same. I thought "maybe you get continues" i died again. Nope. I checked options.

So basically there is no challenge.

Seeing how sweet this looks in the isometric viewpoint brings up my old craving for a revamp of Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge.

Greg Kasavin was one of the best things about Gamespot during his time there. Now it looks like he could be one of the best things about XBLA.

Was he the dude that left to persue a career in producing games instead of writing them? That was years back...
