Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved

Geometry Wars Retro Evolved is a brilliantly simple addictive twin stick shooter. You control a ship fighting against geometry shapes. that all act differently. You can move your ship with the left stick and you shoot with the right stick, so to start with it messes with your head, should you concentrate on where you're moving or where you're shooting! I bought this game on the Xbox Live Arcade, in fact it was one of the first games that I bought when I got my Xbox 360. At the time it cost 400 microsoft which is about 5 pounds. And for 5 pounds it's well worth it! Geo Wars started off as a small part of Bizzares' Project Gotham Racing 3. There was ...  Read the complete review

The Right stick allows you to fire 360 degrees around you - so you can be flying forward, and shooting behind... ingenious stuff! The aim of ...  Read the complete review

This game is available for purchase via xbox live arcade and cost 400 microsoft points which is equivalent to £3.40 and i must say that it is one of the best buys i have made.

This arcade game is available on the Xbox live marketplace and recently has been packaged for sale in shops as an actual game. It's quite simple really you are a small white spaceship in a large box of empty space, you must shoot coloured shapes as they either fly around, towards or into you although some have various projectiles and special abilities which are unique to their colour shape and this brings variety into the game. It's simple but addictive with lots of colourful explosions move destroyed shapes. To be honest it's like an epileptic fit on a screen which is actually really awesome. It does however get difficult quite quickly and is based solely on ...  Read the complete review
