Holy crap, Big Bumpin' is hilarious and may be my favorite game of the three. (Score a goal: "He's definitely having it HIS way!") I'm not sure when I last laughed so hard.

IGN rated it as best of the 3: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/746/746645p1.html

The taunt buttons on big bumping and pocketbike racer are funny. I love 'em.
More games should have such features assigned to unused buttons.

It's a pleasant surprise that BK went the full mile and packaged the games in the standard 360 green cases. They could have just as easily put them in crappy cardboard slip cases.

Its even more surprising this game beats the shit out of Sonic.

I downloaded the demo back in October and played it for about ten minutes. Talk about a terrible game and another nail in the poor hedgehog's coffin.

The standard green cases, good covers, multi-page colored inserts . . . and even a free 48-hour xbox live gold trial. And the games themselves are nice small doses of fun.

I really hope this promotion is a big success because I'd love to see additional companies do it.

Gary Whitta · Nov 27, 2006

This promotion was pure genius.

I wonder if we might see these games pop up on XBLA sometime after the promotion ends?

I will never understand people who don't prefer an inverted Y axis... nor do I understand why it isn't the default for the majority of games.

If there was ever a game where The King actually did beat the shit out of Sonic, I'd pay a hell of a lot more than $3.99 for it.

First $100 game and worth every cent.

Big Bumpin is definately my favorite(sadly I've fallen to 20th place on the leaderboards).

I also enjoy Sneak King(camera doesn't bother me).

I've never been a big fan of Mario Kart games but I do enjoy Pocketbike Racer in single player. The online multiplayer has some real annoying issues though.

1. I'd say about half the time, the races don't start and you get a Lost Connection to Host message. As if that wasn't bad enough...
2. When the lost connection thing happens, if your next race takes place on a different course then the 2 levels' graphics get mixed together.
3. A much smaller problem. No "talking" indicator in the on-line lobby. You don't know who's saying what.

Word!

I complained about the King being ridiculous product placement in Fight Night Round 3 . . . but I have been converted. The King's charm has won me over.

Perhaps he snuck up on me and shoved a whopper in my mouth just before I passed out.

If this promotion is a success . . . I think we can expect to eventually see some sort of Nintendo-style cartoon-violence fighter with the King in it.

That sounds like a feature, not a bug! Are you actually in a weird mixed environment and it still works?

muckhole · Nov 27, 2006

I don't know if it's already posted, but there are free King gamerpics up for download in the marketplace.

Gotta try and get the King's face into Rainbow 6....

Bebpo · Nov 27, 2006

Do they still have these games at most places?

You still see pieces of the graphics of the previous course but you can just drive right through them. Makes racing on the current course difficult to say the least.

BuckRobotron · Nov 27, 2006

Picked them up a few days ago but only just checked the racer out yesterday. Quite fun, played for a while and got some achivements along the way. Environments are surprisingly well-done in variety and visuals. Most fun to me is boosting in 150cc races, where the game's boost is so strong you can easily punt yourself clear out of the environment on almost every jump, especially the suburban map.

Vangellis · Nov 27, 2006

I grabbed all 3 at lunch today. Im impressed way better than I had expected. I cant believe one of the best intros to a game is from a 3.99 BK promotional game... Sneak King. The intro video of the king sneaking around the dark outside a house is friggin classic.

GAH!!!! I can't get the 50M Jump achievement in Pocket Bike Racer. I'm trying it on the "construction track" and the furthest I'm getting 42 meters. Is there another spot that's better?

The suburban neighborhood track has some good jumps. Also, it helps if you're using a higher CC cycle.

robot · Dec 22, 2006

You can also hold down the boost to stay in the air longer - after I realized that I got it on the construction level on the highest cc.

siamesedreamer · Dec 23, 2006

Yeah, I got it pretty easily once I got faster cars in the career mode.
