Does anyone read this? ...hello? ...it's so cold. Let's get cozy again and play a set of...

Splosion Man
This game is really... demented. You play as a science experiment that's essentially a man made of fire. Your mission is to escape the labs in which you were created by... sploding. There are six buttons in this game and they all make your character "splode." When you splode you bounce off the ground and it works like a jump. You can splode three times before you have to recharge, so essentially you can triple jump. The controls are very simple so jumping in is very easy to do (Oh ho! JUMPING PUN!). The trick is all the booby traps and security safe gaurds the scientists have put up to keep you from leaving. The game is a mix of puzzle solving and platforming and requires fast timing and smart thinking. AND there's 4 player coop, which is TRUELY demented because if your game plays out at all like the ones in our apartment everyone just starts blowing up all over the screen and it's hard to tell what's... actually happening. ...to be fair, my room mates drink. She'll enjoy the cute characters, the silly humor and the fact that you trust her with a game that doesn't involve shooting everyone you meet. You'll also enjoy using your brains together instead of just your skill.

But after some practice, you and your partner will eventually be pulling off feats like this...
This XBLA game is $10 and worth every penny.
So, what's your favorite game that ever made you think? In any way. Even if the thought was, "Why am I playing this?"
I actually really enjoy playing this game! It's fun to splode! And playing it with three other crazy drunk people makes it even more fun. ...this is unlike playing Rock Band in this apartment with drunkies, where everyone just gets pantsed...
