Strider, I think you're either reading too much into this, or you're half a year late with that comment?

That was the joke. I wasn't joking when I said it owned though. I've spent more time with/had more fun with M&B than any game a mainstream company has released in at least 5 years.

At $7.99, do your self a favour and nab it. The variety of mods on offer and those still in the pipe line, ensure this baby will continue to evolve in to something special!

It deserves a shot at that price.

(Don't know how much the devs will get of that, but you can't have too many customers.)

My apologies...to me it was a new thread...didn't see the older dates on the first few posts.

Sombre has his points but that doesn't make this game less awesome. It is as mentioned addictive much thanks to a nice flow of battle. Dismissing it because it isn't deep enough means that you also can dismiss 99% of all sword fighting games; in them you won't even get wet.

It is cheap, fun and still under development with free updates, what more could you ask for?

[Sombre]

There are better games for the price, so I'd ask for them.

And I'm actually a fan of M&B. The LOTR mod for it was excellent.

Which games do you have in mind? I honestly can't think of any. Unless of course you mean classic games that have been out forever like X-com, but most people who would be interested in those have probably already played them to death.

I concur with Goku, can't think of any for that price.
