1UP sees improvement in Monster Madness: Grave Danger

by Jem Alexander { Feb 12th 2008 at 11:00PM }

During their teeny tiny mini-preview of Southpeak Games' upcoming arcade shooter Monster Madness: Grave Danger 1UP indicates that it may be a far more worthwhile game than its predecessor. Grave Danger is a remake of a forgettable Xbox 360 game, entitled Monster Madness: Battle For Suburbia, that is being reworked whilst taking into consideration the negative feedback from critics and players.

Improvements include a modified camera which no longer restricts local multiplayer and an improved, more intuitive, control system. 1UP's closing words on the subject were that "it seems that Grave Danger could be the fun experience the original game should have been." While this does bode well for the title, we don't suspect that the game will be hitting any top ten lists for the year. Depending on price, Grave Danger could turn out be a fun multiplayer arcade game, but we'll reserve judgement until we get our hands on it ourselves.

This should be a psn game. It may sell better that way.

Needs a demo to convince us they've made significant improvements.

This is kind of off topic, but does anyone know when Eternal Sonata is suppose to come out? It's about the only game I'm interested in till FFXIII & Vs. XIII comes out. This gen is lacking in RPG's.

That's good, the game showed promise but it just wasn't executed well. In their defense I think they conceived, made and released the game in the course of a year.

Well I had the original but the controls were just too bad to get past. The game is basically just the same thing over and over with different backgrounds. I finished Two Worlds another game made by Southpeak and it's even worse than this. Southpeak is the current generation version of the bottom feeder of game designers.
