The shoot 'em up genre (Shmup) hasn't received a ton of love over the last several years besides a few cult favorites like Geometry Wars. Aside from repackaging some old products and a handful of compilations there really hasn't been anything hitting American shores worth mentioning. While Square Enix might have the pedigree of bringing great Shmups out (namely Einhander) they sadly don't change anything with the release of 0 Day: Attack on Earth.
Carlos writes - "This week has already proven exceptionally busy for Xbox One’s Backwards Compatibility program with the arrival of several Xbox Original titles. It seems all is not over however, as now we see even more games added to help expand the ever-growing list even more. In typical fashion we’re here once more to bring you our thoughts on the latest additions, and give our views on whether it’s worth the time, and effort, to head back to these past titles once more."
Oh wow how fast they keep adding them it's so good to know all new Xbox consoles are gonna carry all these games with better graphics it's amazing
CM writes: "0 Day Attack on Earth is a twin stick shooter that although supports a single player game, really benefits from having Xbox Live friends to co-op with. The core idea of the game is the Earth has been invaded by massive alien motherships, leaving it down to our space-pilot heroes to defeat them and save the day."
Gaming Target writes: "It's unlikely that 0 Day Attack on Earth will grab you in any meaningful way and at 1200 Microsoft Points ($15), it's much too expensive to take a flyer on. Twin stick shooter fans have many other places to look to get their fix on the XBLA and almost all of them would be a better choice than 0 Day."
