"For a very reasonable 800 XBL points, 'Splosion Man is a blast. This is one of the most original platformers to come down the road in a while and is one that just might be good enough and addictive enough to spawn a new franchise.http://www.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/splosionman/review.html?part=rss&subj=6214140
