Opening cutscene released as well

It's been nearly three months since Double Fine revealed, the third of its four promised XBLA titles, Trenched was in development.

Today, Double Fine boss Tim Schafer tweeted the the game will arrive on June 22nd, 2011. He also pointed us to the intro cinematic for the title.

Was never a big fan of tower defense games, but I will probably give this one a shot.

Apparently the version of this they were showing wasn't that great. Not terrible, but nothing that interesting. Hopefully they've tweaked it since.

I need a good tower defense to play. but 1200 is still too much for an arcade game

Absolutely love the work of Double Fine. The art is often amazing and the storylines quirky and interesting. However, they seem to be somewhat short, so I will wait until the price drops to buy Trenched, as I did with Costume Quest and Stacking.

Got a chance to play Trenched at the PaxEast this year. It was a great game, it was like a Double Fine version of firefight! There are different grades of guns from quick fast light weapons, to slow heavy weapons. I played along with three others and we each had different platforms, plus as you kill the enemy you gain point which you then can use to call in stationary weapon platforms such as AA or missile launchers. I enjoyed the game very much so.

I love tower defense games and I love the looks of the plot. It would seem that Trenched is shaping up to be worth 1200MSP

Oh no, I meant I will wait for Trenched like I waited for the other two. Sadly, yeah, I am still waiting for Stacking, that is definitely true. I'm a little perturbed that there hasn't been even one sale for it.
