I really liked the demo... went thru again last night as berserker. Seems like there's just more and more layers you find time for everytime you play. The cuztomization seems easy but very multi-faceted. I'm getting my pre-order in.
Initially, the controls were strange.. then immediately after I thought that "stick-combat" was brilliant. First play-thru was okay but on my second is when the game really started presenting it's possibilities to me... on 5th playthru...
for an almost flawless jewel... wish they coulda gotten in online co-op, but I totally understand how tough survival would be with the minutest bit of lag... insta-DEATH
... so happy to finally have it tho...

WOOOOOOT!!!!
... tho they could still pull a fast one on us... lol/cry
just not a direct movie tie-in... I like that.
I should like the Lego series' more than I do, but it just seems too slow in the gameplay for my tastes. I really wanna play em' for their humor, but, alas... there's way too many games that take priority.
(edit)
and yeah Spidey 2 totally owned Spidey 3...
but I really really want a Batman sandbox game, in the vein of Predator: Concrete Jungle crossed with GTA/Crackdown'ish... just a dream I have.
I remember the NES Batman (Keaton/Nicholson) and it wasn't bad for it's time (unlike today's movie drivel) and I also remember being sooooooo disappointed I had to buy that instead of SuperMarioBro3... lol.
... yet they're still gonna get me on Castle Crashers... lol/sob
This news really sux... Cuz I'm really really looking forward to Castle Crashers. When "originals" go for 1200pts, I don't understand why an arcade title should be more than 800pts... PERIOD.
easily should easily get 9+/10 total. Completely disagree with them on both 7/10's given. Sound and presentation were great.
Tho without GlaDos, I don't think we'll even get close to getting cake.
the Assassin's Guild and Thief's Guild quest/storylines are far superior to the main storyline. And yes the end would spoil some things for you... tho I have to say OBLIVION coulda had a better ending.
AGREE!!!!!!
Fictional wonder beasts on this site... good luck.. I've seen more unicorns in the city than informed comments from this site.
and aren't too disapointed.. it doesn't have online co-op... think they've said there's just too much on the screen for people to survive if there's the minutest bit of lag... and after playing I can see why.
so I wasn't terribly disappointed it wasn't in this. Local co-op is great for this game. I think there's simply too much on screen for online co-op to be accurate enough for survival in this game.
but I think they cut it cuz there's just way too much happening in GeoWars2 to make it accurate for both parties to survive. Even a split second of lag can get you deaded in this game, which would be more frustrating for me than anything. Still... Heavy Weapon has a p!ss ton of objects on screen in later gameplay.. tho it does glitch out after a certain point I've heard... and seen on YouTube.
You can't predict a whole level and time everything for runs like Ikaruga.
Think Asteroids but on LSD and you get to move about... that's the best I can come up with after playing the damn game til 5am... LOL...
IMHO
Best 400pts spent on XBLA = GEOMETRY WARS 1
Best 800pts spent on XBLA = GEOMETRY WARS 2
.. but I can look past that pretty quick.
Already addicted... A++
...and so true LMAO
