Spongebob Squarepants on Xbox LIVE Arcade

December 21, 2007 on 3:00 am | In Xbox world |

For those of you that don’t know how awesome SpongeBob SquarePants is, look no further than this video on YouTube. Seriously, how can a “kids” cartoon be so rad?

But, I digress. The real story here is that the new SpogeBob game, SpongeBob SquarePants Underpants Slam! is coming to Xbox LIVE Arcade on Wednesday the 26th. The game is an exclusive to Xbox LIVE and features a single player adventure, multiplayer over LIVE, and single-console multiplayer for only 800 points.

From the media alert:

THQ ’s “SpongeBob SquarePants Underpants Slam!,”  based on Nickelodeon’s wildly popular animated series, stars SpongeBob himself as he guides the way with his “Bikini Bottom” pals: Patrick, Mr. Krabs, Sandy Cheeks and Plankton in this side-scrolling slap-happy extravaganza. King Neptune has misplaced an entire load of laundry after a massive underwater storm current and it’s up to eager SpongeBob fans to collect them all by searching the kitchens of the Krusty Krab, the cargo hold of the Flying Dutchman’s ship and even the Treasure Room of Atlantis. Collect 99 pairs of Neptune’s bloomers to complete the game in Quest Mode or beat the clock in Time Attack Mode.

Players can also join up to three other friends over Xbox LIVE, play single couch multiplayer Slam Mode, or try to avoid being “it” at Bikini Bottom in Tag Mode. The game will be available in North America for 800 Microsoft Points and is rated E for Everyone by the ESRB.
