Co-Op Release Alert: Schizoid on Xbox Live Arcade

Nicholas "bapenguin" Puleo July 7th, 2008 at 12:54 PM

When a game claims to be the "most co-op game ever" it has some big shoes to fill. This week Schizoid can put its Microsoft Points where its mouth is when it comes out on the Xbox Live Arcade.

The game has been in development for quite some time, touted as the first XBLA game created from the ground up with XNA. The basic premise is each player is a certain color ship, and can only attack ships of the same color by ramming them. The co-op aspect obviously has to do with working together to block the opposite color ships from taking down your partner.

With over 120 levels and the promise of more via DLC Schizoid looks like a steal at 800 Microsoft Points.

Some videos of the game play are posted after the jump.

I played this for a bit yesterday and it is awesome. I didn't mind the AI but it needs a second player, if only for cursing at when they don't protect me!

Totally worth the 800 points though, if only to support something unique and different.
