After a serious drought in Xbox Live Arcade, Alien Hominid HD crash landed on to Marketplace this morning. This Newsgrounds favorite has made the jump to the new gen and you can grab this completely hand drawn arcade shooter for an expected 800 MS points. Along with the mission mode complete with local co-op, there is also the seven minigames that support up to four players over Xbox Live, complete with 50 all new PDA Levels. Are you picking this up, or is that a given?Alien Hominid attacks XBLA

Already purchased, and already loving it.
Now I just need to know if I can wear the hats I unlock.

As soon as I get home from school at 2:30 I'll be picking it up.

Got it, great game. I've not bought the original versions, so the $10 or so seemed like a good deal. Anyone who hasn't played this and thinks it is a "YAWN" title is crazy.
I do wish there was online co-op, though. That hurts.

Oh, and you can put on hats you unlock in the settings menu, ZenGaijin.

I think I'll wait for a couple reviews to come out before I pluck down my 800 points. Looks cool tho. However, I am still working through and having fun with Heavy Weapon so I might even wait longer before buying it.

eww no online co-op? I thought that was available here. I'll probably still try out the demo at least-- from what I've heard about this on other systems, $10 is a bargain.

Awesomeness. I played the first level this morning before work (bought it outright, no demo), and the hand drawn art is amazing in high def. Contra 3 levels of hand-your-alien-ass-back-to-you-die-die-die-ness.
Totally worth the 800 points. My roomie and I will be raging the local 2 player later.

I remember when i spend 40.00 to buy this game for the PS2, i might end up buying for the 360 also lol. ZenGaijin, if its the same as the PS2 version than the hats can be worn once they are unlocked.
