Crossbuy

Mmm please?... At least a discounted price for people who bought it already

 

[EnVy_CaLiBeR]

Cool. Didn't play it before.

 

[dzelly]

Why'd IGN remove it? doesn't seem too sensitive. Is it because Microsoft wanted it to be part of an ID@Xbox announcement?

 

[gazele]

Sweet, haven't played it before

 

[KaYotiX]

Will buy

 

[Neuromancer]

I just got this game for $4 on the Vita, it is delightful. I hope it's cross buy on PS4 although with this extra content I bet it won't be.

Crossbuy

Yeah, I have it on PS3 already and would love a steep discount or insta-crossbuy love.

 

[Steverulez]

Got it on PSVita (and PS3?) and not really played it much but good news anyway, what I played seemed fun.

 

[Saroyan]

The Vita version was fantastic, I would probably play it again on PS4

 

[TheBioLover]

Polygon reached out to Drinkbox Studios for comment, to which they responded: "What's Guacamelee?"

lol

[borghe]

New content is appealing. Not sure how they'll really be able to upgrade the visuals. Game is much more focused on art than technical prowess.

 

[bigmf]

I really hope so. I just got it on the current week sale and I'm nearing the end of my first playthrough. I want to get three platinum trophies out of this one.

 

[TimmiT]

I might try this out if it's cross-buy on PS4. Would be nice if they removed all the references and memes and replaced them with actual jokes.

 

[That Wont Fit In There]

I just got this during the sale and I pray it's cross buy for PS4.

 

[Dr.Horrible]

Don't even care if cross buy. Would buy it in a heartbeat. Loved Guacamelee.

 

[TaKeRx]

Oh shit. I was about to buy it on PSN. I'll gladly wait.

 

[Jinfash]

Awesome news. Buy, buy, buy!

 

[IdreamofHIME]

Cross buy?
I have the PS3 version, but never played it. Then got the Vita version from PS+ and never played that. I'd like to go for the hat trick.

 

[Pappasman]

Yes! Gonna try and get back to the top of the leaderboards on PS4.

 

[pretty done]

Will play if #yolo

 

[BronsonLee]

lol

HAH!

Good looking out. I already bought it though so I can't forsee double dipping..

 

[CaptainTiptop]

I hope this is cross-buy. I bought Guacamelee day one on Vita. I'll probably re-buy it anyway if it's not cross-buy.

lol

Hahaha, the Drinkbox guys are great.

 

[RoboPlato]

I hope it's cross buy. I liked the game but got busy and never finished it. Would love to play with the DS4.

 

[dancrane212]

This is a new personal record for a better version of a game getting announced after I purchase the original. It's been about 8 minutes.

Not that either of those versions are going to launch for under $4.

 

[Reallink]

This is a new personal record for a better version of a game getting announced after I purchase the original. Been about 8 minutes.

Same, not buying anymore PS3 or vita games after this.

 

[Flandy]

You'll all stop playing once you reach this

 

[Gazoinks]

So what's this one gonna be, Guacamelee Gold Gold? Hope it comes to Steam sooner rather than later.

You'll all stop playing once you reach this

Nah, that part was easy. Honestly, I found most of the story relatively easy and I'm not much good at platformers. The optional stuff though... Yikes.

 

[Orniletter]

....I don´t want this to sound like port begging....but It is kind of strange that there are so many Nintendo references (El Majora, the Choozo statue among others)

...and this game comes to everything BUT Nintendo.

C´est la vie.....I guess

...but great regardless.

 

[Wario64]

Sounds like a whole new game, which means it won't be cross buy most likely

If you are interested in games outside of Nintendo published titles you should probably invest in another console or a PC.

 

[Backfoggen]

Would buy instantly. DLed from PS+ already, but who wants to play stuff on that junky old box.

How do you find/do stuff like this?

 

[lonely]

Where's the vine?

 

[Fixed1979]

You'll all stop playing once you reach this

No problem with that, but once I got to the actual top I got stuck and haven't been able to move on. It sits on my Vita mocking my feeble platforming skills.

 

[nampad]

Hope they release the new content as DLC for the original versions.

 

[makatk]

completed the vita version a while ago , its a good game but i found the humor over the top sometimes and the setting is kinda annoying at least compared to metroid .
i think the devs should have tried to do another game instead of porting this and adding dlc .

 

[Wario64]

How do you find/do stuff like this?

It's just Google Cache

Place the URL in there, bloop bloop

[ZoddGutts]

Wonder if the PC version will get this update.

 

[21st century cowboy]

Easily one of my games of the year so I'll definitely buy it again.

 

[Nabs]

You'll all stop playing once you reach this

nah.

 

[Card Boy]

You'll all stop playing once you reach this

Nah your just bad.

 

[jbug617]

I would buy again.

 

[Tsunamo]

I'll happily double dip on the game if it's got extra content. I loved every moment of it (along with the DLC) and would love more Guacamelee content.

 

[Wario64]

Everyone missed that Mutant Blobs Attack is coming to X360/PS3 and Drinkbox is making a mobile game

 

[jett]

I'm due for a replay. This game was one of my year's faves, Drinkbox is on my radar for anything they develop in the future.

 

[Phire Phox]

Awesome! Great fucking game. In my top 5 of the year.

 

[Septimus Prime]

I'll get it again, but I'm really hoping it just shares a trophy pack with the others so I won't have to do all the DLC trials again.

 

[Mesoian]

You'll all stop playing once you reach this

Meh, that part was fine.

I'll probably triple dip if i'm reminded closer to the release.
