    Let's all just keep the IAP-talk to a minimum before this thread, like the countless others before it, gets too far lost. :p

    The gameplay itself is hilarious, and the character of Ms Splosion Man equally so. I don't usually bother with platformers on iOS but I'll probably finish this one. I really like how there's something of an optimal way to play through the levels, sort of like Mikey Shorts. If you're good enough you can splode/bounce/swing through areas combo-style without touching the ground.

    FINALLY!!!

    was announced so long ago that I thought it had been canceled or something.

    For those who haven't heard of ms splosion man I suggest you check some youtube vids, you'll be sold.
    great value for $3, controls work fine, runs nicely.

    I just hope the punishment for skipping a checkpoint/level is in this port, I don't want to spoil it for anyone, it's hilarious :)

    Is this the same as on Xbox? Been thinking about buying it but never did it. But for this price...

    Anyone else find it funny that Microsoft is linking their XBOX Privacy Policy directly in the app description?

    I have this on Xbox as well and it is totally faithful adaptation but with even more stuff at a much lower price. Xbox didn't get these tons of mini challenges to add some replay ability and we also didnt get these other power ups. Which are totally bought with in game coins before anybody panics. You can buy additional coins but the main game supplies a really decent amount and since the original game didnt even have them, they are definitely not required to complete the game. I was really worried about the controls being how this game especially in the later levels requires Jesus level perfect movement and timing, but so far they haven't been an issue at all. The iOS platform sometimes surprises you with what gets released and this is definitely one of the pleasant surprises.

    Also just noticed it expands to 1.0 gigs after install. A high space price but this will be a notable release for a long time guys.

    Try to squeeze it in friend. If you even remotely enjoy precision platforming it is a must have. Besides being crazy fun, it is just oozing personality.

    I think both? Definitely GC achievements and LB's. I thought I read iCloud somewhere, too, but I haven't had the chance to try it out,
