Play TM Reviews: Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2

Play TM Writes:

I'd like to think the much-adored Geometry Wars franchise came about after head developer Steven Cakebread took a trip down memory lane and decided to fuse Robotron 2084 with a Tomy Lights Alive. The resulting franchise-to-be was ace, with Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved proving to be quite probably the best launch title for the Xbox 360. The little idea-that-could has hypnotised us all into a psychedelic colour trance. There was no way we wouldn't see a sequel and, after Geometry Wars games for the Wii and DS, Bizzare are back on the 360 with Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2.

You will not be wasting your money on this title... you will be wasting away your braincells endlessly making new combinations of swear words as you dodge a constantly more infinite group of psychadelic shapes careening towards you in a more and more frenzying state... good times. Good flash-backs.

6 more titles drop in with Xbox One Backwards Compatibility – Are they worth the return?

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?"

Ah how I love Geo Wars. This reminds me to go play it!

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?

Was it N+ or mark of the ninja?

DaFeelz2949d ago

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.

*sigh* Dragons Dogma... where for art thou?
