Great new take on old skool arcade gameplay that perfects style with quality .In this day and age these games are rare.
Geometry Wars or GW for short is a modern day game with the gameplay and originality of an old school arcade classic with many hours of frantic fun to be had playing it trying to get the best scores and be on the universal leader board.
The game has great graphics, although some people may disagree as it’s not a cutting edge fps or anything but it has great colour usage and effects in it and tops this off with amazing sound and explosions and various other effects used throughout the entire game. The game makes great use of the duel analog sticks also.
The aim of the game is similar to asteroids which I’m sure most people reading the review will remember. You have a ship, you are to fly and navigate your ship and shoot the incoming space debris and enemy’s coming at you by dodging them and using the guns mounted to your ship and you get a few bombs which blow up all the objects in the game until new ones come you will have time to pause and think. The game can get frustrating and is heavily addictive , also it features 12 achievements which can help boost your overall gamer score , which to some is reason enough alone to grab the game from Xbox live market place for a bargain £2.99 or $5 and start playing and have fun getting on the universal score boards.
The game offers mild thrills and some major fun can be had playing this for many years , though it is not for everyone and most people will know whether this one is for them or not before they play the game , but is worth checking out at such a good deal.
