Gamers who have anxiously been awaiting the arrival of Awesomenauts on Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network will wait no longer...unless they ran out of Xbox Live Points or funds in their PSN account, but I digress.  Awesomenauts has been released today for 800 MS Points or $9.99 on the PlayStation Network.  Remember though, if you're a PlayStation Plus member, you can get the game for free until the end of the month.

Hopefully you've informed your family and stashed your fridge, because you're not going anywhere for a while! The Awesomenauts are ready to roll out to your Xbox and PlayStation!

Available now for download from the Xbox Marketplace and the PlayStation Store, Awesomenauts is a side scrolling multiplayer online battle arena game. The game mixes 80's cartoon graphics and platforming gameplay with a deep and modern upgrade system.

Pick one of the six Awesome characters and join a team of 3 Awesomenauts to duke it out on the online battlefields. These players can be random folks, but you can also play with your friends, online as well as in splitscreen. Defeat droids, turrets, other players and finally the enemy base to and Victory will be yours!

The choice of characters ranges from a hardy cowboy that solves everything with dynamite to a spacefrog that can use dazzling breakdance moves to a mysterious floating brain that can heal allies to even crazier heroes.
