Super Meat Boy oozes his way onto XBLA next week, and the developers are talking to us about all the details: gameplay, indie character cameos, level editing and just how crazy difficult the game really is.

Super Meat Boy's gotten a ton of hype recently, and it can definitely live up to it - it's a fun, funny, twitchy platformer with tons of content and a vibe all its own.
Developers Ed McMillen and Tommy Refenes stopped in via Skype to talk to us all about SMB: where the idea came from, what it was like to make the jump from flash to console games, and just how ridiculously difficult it really is.
This is a new breed of warrior, for a new breed of warfare. This is Tier 1. Medal Of Honor allows you to play as a Tier1 Operator, one of the most elite warriors in the world. Pre-order the game now to be assured to get your hands on it when it comes out October 12th.

Used the terms "scaling" and "ux experience" when she asked for details. I have learned a lot here in SF.
