It's no surprise to any of us that Assault Heroes 2 is coming. It's no surprise that the game will build on the original with more of everything. It's no surprise that this video looks better than the original title. What do you guys think?
I loved the first especially in co-op. I felt the game was missing "tension" though. Hopefully this game will rectify this. It's definately one of the best XBLA series in my eyes.
Is there a website with information available about how many people are playing a game over Live? I'd like to see if people are still playing the first game before I buy it. Does the first game have any achievements attached to multiplayer and if so can I get them using local co-op play?
@FloodCombatForm - Achievements can be done in local co-op. I'm not sure if anyone is playing the old game. For the longest time it had poor netcode. My guess is that no one is playing this game online anymore. I would wait for AH2

Looks better than the first, but the dual stick shooter genre is completely overdone at this point on XBLA.
I would call it the flavor of the moment, but it has been way longer than that at this point.

MyGamerCard.net shows how many people who signed up there are playing each individual game.
I think you can safely move Assualt Heroes 2 from Rumored Games to Announced Games now that the trailer is available on Marketplace.
