4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome for a cold winter's night!, November 24, 2007
By Brian Leake "Gamer" (Los Angeles, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Geometry Wars: Galaxies (Video Game)
If you like old-school twitch games, you'll love this one! It takes the original Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved (as seen on Xbox Live Arcade) and pumps it up into 60 levels of wave after wave of new enemies, each simple yet cunning in their behavior. There's no story-line or deep meaningful cut-scenes to get in the way, this game is all about hardcore 2D-shooter action! Two player mode is a hell of a lot of fun, although with so much action going in, it can be difficult to see which ship is which. If you have a Nintendo DS, you can also download a mini-version of the DS version over Wi-Fi (a nice bonus). If you're at all in to classic retro-style gaming, and want to just chill for a few hours of shooting mayhem, then give this one a thought, it's a lot of fun!

4.0 out of 5 stars The best way to get rid of unwanted hours Last Starfighter, November 26, 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Geometry Wars: Galaxies (Video Game)
This game is teh awesome! Very addictive game play takes hours away from your life and turns them into points, power ups, and unlocked galaxies and worlds in this game. WAIT, before you're convinced by the opening sentences of my rad review to buy this fast paced shooter of sweetness I must tell you that you are going to need a Wii Classic Controller. Without a Wii Classic Controller you will die a lot and this game will not be fun but you can always make your friends use the Wiimote and Nunchuck in multiplayer.

So basically this is a game you play for hours straight and even when you want to stop you don't. Geometry Wars Galaxies is like a sequel to the XboxLive Geometry Wars Retro, which is also included with this game.
At first I was blown away by Retro and didn't even want to get into what seemed like a more complex and involved Galaxies (it is but not in any way that makes it complicated but I didn't know and I wanted to play now without thinking and Retro is very addictive). If it was a competition Galaxies would pwn Retro hard because of all the various power ups, levels and enemies added to the magnificence, which is Geometry Wars Galaxies.

With the Wiimote and Nunchuck it sucks, you have a cursor on the screen and you aim that where you want to shoot and fly with the Nunchuck joystick. With the Wii Classic Controller it Rocks, you fly in any direction with the right joystick and simultaneously you shoot in any direction with the left joystick. Which as you can imagine makes for some teh sweet maneuvering as you pwn alien space noobs.

So here's the basics, you've got Geoms that appear when you shoot enemies and you fly near those to pick them up, Geoms are cash for unlocking different Drones, galaxies, and worlds. A Drone is a little space ship that flies around doing one of eight different things you can choose from and each of the 8 different Drones gains experience the more you take it into battle. You start with the attack drone and the seven other drones are defend, collect, snipe, sweep, ram, turret, and bait. Each Drone has ten levels of power and depending on what level you play the drone you choose to use can be vital to achieving a gold medal. Oh yeah and there are medals, each level has a score for a bronze, silver, and gold medal but the real challenge is trying to get the high score on the online leader boards. That is one problem I had with the game every time you want to see how you ranked after a turn you have to connect to the internet and then disconnect before you can play again but it doesn't take long, it's just annoying.

Galaxies has levels that are designed to be similar to old school arcade games like Asteroids and Space Invaders and others but at the same time it's Evolved. Enemies appear out of no where and they fly in from corners mostly and there is usually like a bazillion things happening at once with all the lights, colors, geoms, your ship, your fire, points, enemies, explosions, and gravity wells trying to suck you in, it gets intense.

Multiplayer has ten levels/worlds specific to it and no drones. There are two quick play 2 player modes, co-op and verses, Co-op is like the main Multiplayer mode where you share six lives.

On most levels you have 3 lives and 3 bombs, that clear the screen very temporarily, but some levels you have 1 life or no bombs. You can earn extra lives, bombs, and change your main ship's guns to two spray attacks, one faster, by collecting Geoms also.

With a ton of different levels, bunches of different enemies and all the Drones to power up this game has tons of options that will keep it interesting and fun for a long time. Like one review I read said it basically has endless replay value.

There is a galaxy with 7 worlds that can only be accessed if you have both the Wii and DS versions which I think sucks because I don't have a DS and it's just sitting out there on the edge of the Universe taunting me with it's unplayability, but oh well, Highly Recommend, with a Wii Classic Controller that is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick and painless, February 4, 2008
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Geometry Wars: Galaxies (Video Game)
This game is quick to pick up and painless to put down. It is a great time-killer and has addictive qualities that make you want to keep playing it. Unlike a lot of games that require you to review the last two hours that you played and also require a substantial time contribution just to make some progress, this allows a person to pick it up, have some fun and put it back down. That being said you'll likely want to keep picking it up again and again because it is genuinely a nice distraction from anyone that has to think for a living. No thinking, just acting, and that is a great thing. If you want something complex and engrossing, sorry keep looking, but if you are just looking for a good time with no strings attached, this is your thing.
