I just got a 360 today. And this morning, I was able to play Super Meat Boy the way it was supposed to be played.

On a console.
In front of a large TV.
In the comfort of the living room.
In a large recliner.
With great quality.

I tried out the demo for SMB...and was in pure bliss! It sure beat having my face a foot away from the computer screen and the controls were a hell of a lot more responsive then when I was playing it for PC. And the quality was what it was meant to be, not having to be toned down as far as possible for my modern computer to try and run it. I could almost feel Meat Boy jumping off the walls!

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm a console gamer, not a PC gamer. And Super Meat Boy for the 360 is one of the most amazing games I have ever played. Having beat SMB on the PC, going through the demo was a breeze. Hopefully, I've saved up enough bottles and cans (five cents per bottle and can here in Oregon) to get this soon for XBLA. Because I'm sick of wrestling around with it on PC for minimal performance.

Awesome job, Team Meat! I love you guys more than ever for the 360 version! ^_^

but you dont get the editor/ meat world

Do what I'm doing:

Use television as monitor, use xbox360 controller in USB 2.0 port.

I suddenly have the pleasure of a console game with all of the perks of the PC version (characters, tofu boy, iron boy achievements, super meat world). Feel jealous.

I sit in my computer chair, cramped into a corner playing Super Meat Boy with a keyboard. It ain't a pretty sight but when I beat a level I feel like I've beat it for real.

I already own SMB for PC, so I do get the editor.

It's not that simple.

1. Our computer is not a gaming machine. The graphic card sucks.
2. The PC is upstairs away from anything comfortable.
3. It's more of a pain to set all that shit up.
4. For me, Super Meat Boy for 360 is way more convenient.


EDIT: Don't know why I wound up with two different posts. My bad.

Psychopath pretty much summed it up. I mean its clear that this game is meant to be played like a console game.

But i do it on pc with a 360 controller on my giant monitor and i love every damned minute of it.

Like others have said, you can easily re-create the exact same "console experience" for PC. You just need to have the equipment (which I'm sure many have).

It would seem like PC gamers will have "the better version" of super meat boy, because of level editor and portal. But other than that, super meat boy is equally awesome for PC and console.

To be honest i think as long as team meat constantly sends new stuff to XBLA its not going to be that bad.

Lag is for noobz who play w/ sucky PCs they bought from the 1940s! Lolololol im going to play MW2. Kidding! true, keyboards are better, but I hate lag. Happens to me enough though

Ugh, do we really need another one of these threads?

"I have an 8 year old computer and Meat Boy doesn't run well. PC sucks."

Is this really all we have left to talk about?
