I guess this means I'm going to have to get Castle Crashers soon

Along with a PS3 or an Xbox 360, of course. (Did you hear that? It was my husband groaning.)

Why am I going to have to buy the above-mentioned beat 'em up, you ask? Because the folks at Behemoth are finally--on Feb. 8--going to release a DLC pack that allows gamers to play as the Pink Knight.

Castle Crashers has been on my lengthy "to buy" list ever since I saw this oh-so-fabulous fighter--who bashes foes with a swirled lollipop--in a video of the company's Castle Crashing the Beard flash game. (The Pink Knight appears at the two-minute mark.)

"Pink Castle Crasher pt. 2" by artist Phill Gonzales.

Unfortunately, I discovered shortly after viewing said video that the Pink Knight wasn't a playable Castle Crashers character--a fact which killed most of my enthusiasm for the game. Of course, it also kept me from running out and buying a PS3 (or an Xbox 360) right then and there, so I guess it wasn't a completely negative discovery.

Does that mean I'm going to run out and buy one of those systems now? No, but I'm sure to do so eventually--and when I do, Castle Crashers (and "The Pink Knight Pack") will be among the first games I download.

Yes! I especially love the lollipop, for some reason. I wonder what the other weapons will be?

Hey Bryan there is DLC for Castle Crashers now where you can play as the Pink Knight. Win!

Hey there, Jacob! Actually, I bought the game and the Pink Knight pack a few weeks ago. Speaking of which, I really have to get back to it...

I wish they would've come out with some DLC besides just character packs though.. But The Behemoth is releasing a game like it called Battle Block Theatre. It's going to be awesome!

I agree, Jacob -- non-character DLC would have been cool. As for Battle Block Theatre -- I'm looking forward to that, too!
