I was gonna get this today, but now I'm saving my points for Galaga Legions and Geometry Wars 2.Originally Posted by heybtbm
The demo was okay, a far cry better than Commando 3. But not up there with the likes of Ikaruga and Triggerheart Exelica.
I was going to, but my fucking 360 died.
DAMMIT.
My thoughts exactly. Personally, there are only so many shooters I can have and reasonably play at one time. I think I'll pass on this one for the time being.
Which of the later games is it that if you start at 12 o'clock with the joystick and go 1-9-4-2 clockwise will give you that music? I think it's 194X.
I just downloaded it and played a few games (and a few online games) and I'm very satisfied with my $10 purchase.
I remember some early press on the game ... I'm not sure where or who stated that there "wasn't a lot going on on-screen" ...
... well, I only played on the NORMAL setting and there was TONS of stuff going on on screen, so either Backbone listened to that reviewer OR that reviewer was smoking crack.
I've played through just about all of the 194X series, and I think that this is a pretty nice DLC next-gen addition to the series overall. I love anything that has online gameplay so that's a plus in my book ... the subtle touches in the graphics like the scratched film stock when transitioning, and the beautiful rolling cloud graphics are great.
I see no reason not to recommend this to fans of the series.
