Klagmar's Top VGM #760 - Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2 - Evolved

Looks like a good game, but I'm so glad I bought Grandia instead of this. XD

btw, doesn't the reticule sort of look like the same reticule from that shooter game on the Atari Jaguar? What was it called again... um... Space Tempest 3000?

@TheHotAndColdDog The "reticle" you're talking about is actually the ship you control (the game is a six-axis shooter, not a first person shooter). It's no coincidence that it looks like an Atari sprite because, as the word "geometry" in the title implies, all of the graphics are composed of simple polygons (ie all the Atari could handle).

My school played this at our dance the other day.

I was happy that I was able to recognize it.

The vibrant visuals and sharp controls have always made Geometry Wars my favorite six-axis shooter. The game simply never ceases to lose its appeal due to the gorgeous visuals. The techno soundtrack maches the pace, with "Evolved," the main theme, standing out. It's pure gaming bliss when the screen is full of colorful animations, you're tearing through wave after wave of enemies, and this awesome piece is playing.
