April 3rd has been nailed down as the release date for Monster Madness: Battle for Suburbia. Created by Artificial Studios, Monster Madness is a top down brawler in the tradition of Gauntlet and the recent Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. We really like the concept: kill stereotypical monster archetypes as stereotypical horror movie teenagers. However, the video of the game on Marketplace left something to be desired. Still, games like this aren't necessarily communicated well in a video, so we're hoping the game is as interesting as its premise. Monster Madness promises cooperative and versus multiplayer for up to 16 players over Xbox Live, so there is plenty of potential. The ability to create weapons should add to the fun as well. Here's hoping Monster Madness delivers.

Personally, when I first saw the video on the Marketplace months back I got super excited about the game and wondered why no one seemed to be talking about it.

That's odd, they told me just last week that the Official Release date was April 17th. Wonder if they changed it. EB/Gamespot shows 17th also but we know how they go.
