Do i smell some jealousy here?

[Rival24]

Do i smell some jealousy here?
Yes you do :P

And i couldn't resist to buy the game so i did :p It's pretty fun, finished all beginner levels under par time and got an easter egg too :) So that's 4 achievements already.

[etalien]

Yes you do :P

And i couldn't resist not to buy the game so i did :p It's pretty fun, finished all beginner levels under par time and got an easter egg too :) So that's 4 achievements already.

Cool i've bought the game ass well a few days ago! Completed all beginner / intermediat levels under par time! The advanced levels is a completely different story 8)7 Some of them are easy, but I've been having some real trouble with certain levels. You really get pissed quickly of this game in the advanced single player mode, I can promise you that ;)

The achievements for online play are also easy to get btw :)

[AN ALIEN]

this is actually the only XBLA game is purchaded so far, and it's worth it!_o_

Today i sucked very hard at the game. I tried about 10 times, and only twice i scored over 10.000 points... not my lucky day :P

[Chris]

My top today is 438,000. It's alright, but it isn't anywhere near Curry.

Oh well, Curry sucks at Marble blast. That's what this thread is about right? :) I suck too, etalien rocks :P

[Chris]

Haha. I liked the Demo, if that means anything.

[Nino]

I've done every beginner level under par and all the intermediate ones too except for Swirly. :(

[Curry]

My top today is 438,000. It's alright, but it isn't anywhere near Curry.I improved from 640k to 914k this afternoon :Y)

[Chris]

I improved from 640k to 914k this afternoon :Y)


I hate you and your 914K. Shove it straight up your ass.

[Nino]

Curry isnt human. I finished the intermediate levels under par on MBU \o/

[Curry]

As long as there are people with 22 million I feel quite humble. I did also get 8 lives at one time, so I was actually close to another achievement.

Completed all beginner / intermediat levels under par time! The advanced levels is a completely different story 8)7 Some of them are easy, but I've been having some real trouble with certain levels.

Exactly the same position that I'm in at the moment. The first difficulty 10 one is causing me real problems right now, the one with all of the thin sloping walkways.

I'm hoping to complete Advanced in the next couple of weeks, but as for under-par times... well, on the plus side there's a lot of time left in 2006 yet...

[Curry]

Didn't play it anymore after the first few days actually, and I still have 2 of 3 intermediate levels I have to do under par, and like 10 advanced to get a time on.... don't think I'll ever get par on those 8)7

Intermediate is sooo easy when you try it after advanced ;) Advanced under par takes some training, but its so cool _o_

[Curry]

Thing is I quit playing the game after like 3~4 days :)

[Rival24]

It's not fun anymore if you have to play a level more than 10 times :(

[Neejoh]

It's not fun anymore if you have to play a level more than 10 times :(
It's hard, that's true... But it's doable! And just think about the great feeling you get when you got the achievements...

The multiplayer is pretty cool too. But I haven't really played it that much since I got all the achievements. Maybe it's time for a addon? :D

[Rival24]

In my opinion the problem with the latest arcade games is that you completely stop playing them after a couple of times :( The best games like mutant storm or geometry wars were available at the Xbox launch :o

[Pyromaniac982]

I have just completed getting all 20 easter eggs on Marble Blast Ultra, but it didnt give me the achievment. Do I have to complete the level also or is there someting im missing?

[Curry]

Hmm no idea actually. Do you get the one-egg achievement right on finding it or on level completion? I'd say that sets the rule for the rest of them... and I'd expect you'd also have to survive the level.

This game is quality. When released it was an immediate buy after a few games on the demo. Started playing the game again recently and about 300th in the world at present with over 16,000 points.

[Nekro Neko]

I improved from 640k to 914k this afternoon :Y)

w00t, I have twice that score. I feel like an Ace Geo Wars player now.

As for MBU, it's such a quality game. Online isn't bad either, but the more technical stuff is done on your own. If only I could beat every level under par time.
