That looks like fun. These guys really seem to be enjoying themselves.

Tried 4 player magicka on a lan (plus one off-site) day with some friends. Several game crashes, connecting to a game is a bit wonky, but the gameplay and bad humor just works perfectly to keep a group of people amused. Definitely worth the money.

Looks like the Magicka expansion was announced - they're going to 'Nam. Seriously.

Hahahha. I'm so happy that's what they decided to do with an "expansion".
Now I hope they just fix the game in general. I have a friend who still can't play it reliably.

I like the fact that these chaps seem to emphasize fun

Watched some of Total Biscuits videos playing this and it spurred me to download the demo.  Ten minutes later and now I'm downloading the full version.  Excellent example of a simple mechanic = great gameplay.

Despite the terrible bugs that can creep up, it's incredibly fun. Once they get everything hammered out it'll be a blast. Either way I'm buying the Vietnam expansion.

Ill buy it if someone will play with me. The game is fun, but really seems like it needs multiplayer for the full fun.

*edit*

I bought it. Talked one of my other friends in to buying it too.

I tried it a bit this week. The Vietnam Rescue mission is fun, although a bit short  - it clocks in around 15-20 minutes for my group.

It's a nice variation on the "survive waves of shit!" challenge missions released prior to this. You gain points for various side objectives to complete, as well as one main primary objective. When the mission's over, the points are tallied and you're penalized/rewarded depending on how slowly/quickly you completed the mission - or whether you completed it at all.
