Picked this up last night and the game is absolutely incredible. It really ups the ante in my opinion on the downloadable games available on the Arcade/PSN.

You can tell that this game was done by hardcore Metroid/Castlevania:SOTN fans. My only real gripe is that the bosses have been repetitive. The levels are nicely varied, the environment actually changes depending on your actions in the game. The game flows very well and is hard to put down.

This is arcade content on the same quality level as Castle Crashers. Highly recommended. The demo gives you a great taste of what the game offers so download that at least.

I'll even help you guys queue up the demo now..

Great game. I haven't gotten too far into it yet though. I play XBL games inbetween my retail games. I have a friend that is addicted to it right now.

This has been the year of downloadable games IMO. I still play Battlefield 1943 almost every day.

BTW this game, in remastered form, is currently free on PC. It says free "for the holidays" so no idea how long it will be like that. I'd assume that's ending soon.
