The wait is finally over ? almost!! The Behemoth has announced pricing for the PSN, and promises the game will be available ? soon!!

But that's not all, they will also be bringing Castle Crashers to PAX Prime in a whole new way ? arcade style!! Yes, old school four player standing in front of a booth Ninja Turtles arcade style beat em up action!! Here's a mockup of what they are talking about:

Looks like I know where I'll be hanging out during PAX!!

Anyhoo, here's the rest of what The Behemoth had to say.

So let's talk Castle Crashers. For people on a continent whose last name is "America,"the price will be as close as we can get it to $15. Maybe $14.99. Maybe $15.01. Somewhere right around there. The long and the short of it- Castle Crashers is coming to planet earth like a speeding train ready to fly off the tracks and crash into a village. That village is your PS3.

Meanwhile, we are also getting ready to attend the Penny-Arcade Expo on September 3-5th, in Seattle: Booth #3102. We're bringing with us our latest build from BattleBlock Theater, awesome merchandise for all of your consumption needs, and a never before seen 4-player Castle Crashers arcade cabinet, just for PAX. Say what? Did we just say arcade cabinet? Wait a second am I talking to myself? What is going on?

As for a release date, sources very close to The Behemoth have told us, "Really, really soon."

We already knew it was coming... :p It's just a matter of when. Seems Sony's strict release policy has been holding it up for the last couple months.

How much is it on 360? If it's $15 I'm gonna be ****ed... :angry:

XBLA had a reduced price at one point.. that's when I picked mines up. I"m not too sure if that remained or it went back up.

Yeah that was back around Xmas or something. Was dirt cheap (Y)

This is great news. I wonder why it took so long though. I think this game will do really well over PSN, possibly better than it did on XBLA.

I thought this had already come out, didn't this come out like 2 years ago on XBLA, and they announced the PS3 version like a year ago?

What in the world had taken so long, lol.

I think it'll be the opposite tbh. If it was within the same six months or something I can see that maybe happening, but really if you wanted to play it by now, you did so on the 360.

Only a small portion of PS3 only gamers will be interested (narrowed down to the button mashers to boot).

Well, not everyone has a PS3 AND 360 like us :)

Granted, I think interest may have dwindled as the title has got older. I guess I would rephrase my comment and say that if they came out at the same time, it probably would have sold more on PSN.
