Three more Awesomenauts reporting in for Xbox. My brothers and I are joining the fight!

However there seems to be another fight on our hands as well. Xbox is shoving Fable Heroes down on throats and this amazing game is being overlooked. Personally, out of the two, this game is far more addicting. Xbox needs to stop promoting Arcade Next so hard and pay attention to the games that really matter.

Rally the troops! We must get this game the spotlight it desrves!

I feel this game will pick up a lot of people in time. I have three friend that are going to give the game a try.

It's a real shame this game didn't make it in Xbox's Arcade Next promotion. Probably would of seen 4x the numbers. Fable Heroes just has the Fable name slapped on and the sheep will check it out without giving Awesomenauts a second glance. Luckily I always download trials for new games to see if I'm missing out on games. The advertising for this game has been horrible, I've literally never heard of this game until it came out and I'm typically on top of the indie releases on XBLA.

I know exactly how you feel. I check for news about Indie games daily. I never heard a word about this game till it was literally on the marketplace. How was something so good overlooked?

Thanks guys, more XBLA players would be greatly appreciated.

We have some XBLA ads lined up for next week, though!

Excellent news! I was wondering why I wasn't seeing any advertising for it on the Xbox homepage. I've talked 6 friends into buying for Xbox and every one of them love it - already can't wait for DLC. Keep up the good work.

Agree. I checked trial for Fable Heroes and bought it for some casual irritating-each-other gameplay with my wife (since we haven't had a divorce-fuel game since Dokapon Kingdom), and then checked out Awesomenauts on a whim. Saw it was by Ronimo, and pricked up my ears cause I really enjoyed S&S. Watched opening video and was sold.

Now, haven't played Fable at all because Awesomenauts is monopolizing my limited gaming free time, and I haven't been able to stop singing Leon's theme.

I agree the lack of promotion on XBOX is shameful. I had to manually go in to check when this game was available because I couldn't find any promotion of it on May 2nd. I would've that there would be at least an ad about in on one of the tickers the same way they did when Gotham City Impostors came out. This game is far more addictive than a lot of games to come out recently.

Oh 'twell, since the XBOX community is so small at the moment, feel free to add me. My gamer tag is the same as my name here.
