Madballs In Babo:Invasion (XBLA/PC)
![]() I don't know if anyone here remembers Madballs from the 80's (MEMORRIESSS), but even if you aren't familiar with them, you'll probably want to take a gander at this new title coming to Xbox Live Arcade and PC's this summer. Madballs in Babo: Invasion is a fast paced multi-player 3D action game featuring team play, 2-16 player online multi-player, and co-op. Quote:

I wasn't sure what to expect, but that most certainly wasn't it. Looks interesting.

I had quite a few of those but forgot they ever existed. Nostalgia!
Edit: as far as gameplay goes, it looks like a poor man's Assault Heroes Last edited by maharahaj; 11-22-2008 at 05:33 PM.. |

We were just talking about Madballs in the Toys thread and now they're front page in a different story about their own game?

Wow, I had forgotten all about those. I used to have several.
The game actually looks pretty good. Quite surprising.

I also remember these.
Viva la 80s! I almost wish this kind of thing wouldn't come back though. The memories are great, but everything brought back from my childhood has been completely bastardized.

Ah man, I loved Madballs; I had Horn Head, Dustbrain, and Oculus Orbus, and also head-launching bodies (with heads) for Horn Head and another (I think Dustbrain,) along with the motorcycle-like toy...
But I'm kinda with Mags... Leave some things alone for crying out loud. Next thing you know, we'll get a My Pet Monster game.

Don't know if they ever made one, but I'd love an old school Battle Beast game. Visionaries could also make a fairly fantastic action beat-em up as well.

Battle Beasts' fire/water/wood mechanic could make for an absolutely excellent multiplayer game with serious cash behind it, imo. Three teams of eight in a 3d action game with the play speed of say, larger Halo 3 maps. Each team can dominate one other team, but be dominated by the third... Losing your base means your team no longer respawns, and to win you have to eradicate all of your opponents... That's it. I'm going to tap a programming pal and look into this.
