As much as we love the complex, technologically advanced titles that grace our modern day machinery, there was once a time where we gained simple pleasures from guiding a routine 2D sprite across an indistinct grid, or firing a volley of pixel laser beams at a torrent of incoming debris. They do say, after all, that it's the simple things in life that make you happy.
So to lay witness to a 'simple' 2D twin-stick shooter becoming one of the most sought after titles on Xbox LIVE shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. The thing is, Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 isn't quite as straightforward as it may at first appear.
Carlos "April proved to be a fantastic month for backwards compatible arrivals, with some of the most requested Xbox 360 games finally being made playable on Xbox One, all through the power of emulation. A new month means more titles and this week sees the first of May's BC titles bringing a double whammy for one popular series amongst the masses this week. Are they worth taking a look at?"
Loved these games! It's nice having these just added to my Xbox one library over time. Always have something to do even during game launch droughts.
Daayum, they are killing it with X1 BC support. Now just show me some nice exclusives at E3 and I'll have no complaints.
I,bought some side scrolling Ninja game back in the day on XBL on 360 but I can't remember the name of it. It was fun as Hell! It was cell shaded and pretty violent. I wish they would bring that to BC. Anyone remember the name of that game?
Two good guesses. I'm leaning towards Mark of the Ninja. N+ was only a single room you had to solve and MotN was a true side scroller. Both were violent as shit though.
