QRRASE The Dead: Magicka - Other Side Of The Coin

More Magicka arrives tomorrow and it's of the vampiric, necromantic variety. "Being bad feels good" it proclaims in the launch trailer below, to which I must reply that I probably killed more people while trying to be a hero in Magicka than I'll ever kill by actually putting on an evil hat and setting out to cause harm. I think I've sucked all the fun out of Magicka's jugular already and very tasty it was, but there's nothing weirdly attractive about this DLC, no Lovecraft or 'Nam, so it's probably the first one I'll pass on. I did enjoy the frolicking pinata ponies though. They were very well done.
