HaloMods "Classic" Read-only Archive

I'm sure most people have played, or atleast seen, the original PC release of the game 'N' somewhere or other. N recently made the move to the Xbox 360 arcade, and for the small price of 800 Microsoft points, the full version can be yours.

50 campaign/single player episodes, 10 co-op episodes, race mode, and survival mode. All compatible with 4-player local play. =)

I know myself, Kirk, and ScottyGEE have this game. Anybody else? What do you think of it compared to the PC version? How many of the episodes have you beaten?

It kicks the pc versions ass if only for the multiplayer component. Seriously, the past 2 weeks I've had friends over...We spent more time playing N+ coop challenges, race, survival than we did Halo 3...And we really really really love Halo 3.

What you should expand on there Munsie is that there are many subepisodes to an episode and 5 levels per subepisode...
That's a lot of levels. (Did I get the amount of levels right?)

Thinking now with how much fun I've had with this game and how much time I've put into it, I'd be willing to pay more for the game to get it...Especially compared to other XBLA games out there.

So there's my comments on the game. I'm telling you to buy it (try the demo I spose before purchacing anyway) and I'll play you in some coop or something online

I have it, and I love it
The singleplayer gets pretty hard after a while, and I can't imagine myself completing it. I think I've completed 30 + episodes, and I'm stuck on "stuck in traffic". I just can't seem to make it back to the exit
I played online with ScottyGEE a bit also, and although it got pretty laggy at points, it was pretty fun (besides me constantly dieing in co-op )

Probably the best arcade game I have. I'd be cool to play with some people. Add me if you need someone extra.

I really liked it on PC, and I wish I had some money to buy it.

Yeah so far my biggest complaint is the lag we get online. I've actually had excellent lag while playing on Live compared to some other games I've played, and this was by far the worst (though the netcode is probably game-specific, and not Live itself).

I've had a hell of a time playing it though. It's probably the only puzzle game like it where I can seriously die 100 times on a single level and still have fun.. Actually coop is probably the worst for that stuff, as I start to feel bad when Munsie spends 10 minutes getting his part done and unlocks me then I immediately run into something that I could have easily avoided and ruin it all

Single player is OK, there's an odd level every once in awhile that keeps me stuck for awhile, but I usually sit there dying for 10 minutes straight and I get it


I've never played the PC version though. Might try it someday.

The lag has to be their netcode...And its probably due to them being a smaller dev and not done networking stuff before...

But that doesn't let them get away with it, regardless of the reason really...There is hefty visual lag for the other players and for a game so small (13mb) and simple you'd think tracking individual player movements wouldn't be all too tough. and if it is, I cannot even imagine the pain bungie went through for halo3, the best netcode for console I've experienced.

Also, new DLC is being planned already. I think it was 3 packs have been announced, at least one of them will be free. And the first one will have around 200 new levels.
Speculation is that they've allowed content sharing from the level creator for their next update aswell.

Indeed. The ones that aren't free are also at a fairly cheap price, and I'm talkin like 5 bucks or less per pack. I think it actually might have been 200 points, not sure.

I played the flash game of N and loved it so I bought N+ the day it came out. I beat all 50 episodes and the coop episodes. I threw my controller multiple times on a few of the levels.

Scotty, yea, it's 5 levels per episode. Giving you a grand total of 250 brand new sinlge player levels, 50 co-op levels, and then however many race/survival ones are available, I think 25 or 50?

I'm curious though, if you beat the sinlge player campaign on co-op mode, does it unlock towards the 50 episodes achievement?

My guess would be no.

Pretty fun at least the demo was. When I get some more M$ points I'll be sure to buy it.

This just in: Co-op level 08 is REALLY hard. Even more so for whoever hosts. v_v

I have the demo on xbl arcade and i have the pc version

The PC Version is full of win.

The Xbox Version has sorta different, less favorable physics in my opinion. It feels as though I have less control over the ninja.

I have it, just not very far in it

Lol this is on my school server

Never even heard of N or N+.. what kinda game is it?

Awesome.

Reviving this thread to say coop08 is SUPER hard. v_v

Level 4 is driving me insane.
