Funny that it's for Live Gold members only. PSN had it for half off a few weeks ago, of course, it was for everybody.

It's not even like it requires Gold to play, it's not a multiplayer game, but they're punishing people who have no interest in multiplayer.

Wow, so I bought this game because everyone was giving it such praise, even convinced my friend to get it, and then I find out it doesn't even have online co-op. WTF??? Guess I should've paid more attention when I bought it, but I thought online play would've been a fucking given. What a waste of $5. I really hope they add online play in a patch, or I'm probably never gonna touch this damn game.

It's an awesome single player experience, it's a shame you're so quick to dismiss it for that one reason.

The challenge levels are worth $5 all by themselves.

Well this sucks. I used one of them cards that come with games to bump up my live subscription to Gold for couple of days and it's still showing $10. Is the promotion still on?

EDIT: Well, of course there's a fine print on the card, duh:

*Xbox Live 48-hour trial allows acccess to online multiplayer gaming, but not to other Gold membership features.

Well, no sale then for me. I refuse to pay for multiplayer. Their loss. I have so many games backlogged anyway I don't even know if I would've played this one for more than half an hour.

I'm all about playing with friends, especially ones that don't live near you. I kind of thought that was the whole point of Xbox LIVE, and I just assumed a game that's being built from the ground up would've included some netcode. I played single player games throughout my entire childhood and I think we can all agree they just don't make em like they used too. This is the age of the internet and I don't really like spending money on a game unless it has the added replay value of an online component.
