Most Simply Addicting Game of All Time!!
Let me start of by saying this is my first review and I plan to do be doing more, with practice.
On to the game. Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 is easily the most addicting game to be saved on my 360. The gameplay is so easy to pick up and it immediately becomes fun after you notice a slow progression of your scores. You get better and the feeling is rewarding.
Your probably asking how a game like Geometry wars can be rewarding in the sense of improving your scores. This is mainly due to the layout of your scores. The game is XBL enabled and it shows you.. Right there, in front of you. The game dispalys are your scores. as well as the leaders on your friends list, which will drive you to top their scores and have the bragging rights.
Since your friends scores are shown, can I play with my friends if I wanted to? Well the answer is yes and no. if you mean to play with another friend across the country, then no you won't be able to play. The game is multiplayer, but I'm afraid you'll have to share the couch. In which you can play all modes. Deadline, Pacifism, Evolved, Sequence, Waves, and King. All these gametypes can be played with up to four people in either cooperative or versus modes.
As they were in the previous game, geometry wars 2 hits on all the right notes and looks as far as graphics go. If your playing in HD you might find yourself trailing off in the beautiful shimmers of the enemies and the music with its thumping bass and driving techno music, really just pumps you up and makes the experience enjoyable.
Overall I love this game and it's definently worth some of your XBL points and your hard drive space.
