Retro-revived or rip-off remake? Find out how this arcade hit measures up against its 360 forefather
Words: Tyler Nagata, GamesRadar US
Unlike the forgotten titles that have collected dust since you beat them, Geometry Wars: Galaxies is the sort of game that you'll rediscover and dive back into for another round (or ten) long after your first encounter with it. With all the new bells and whistles, there's no way that fans of Retro Evolved could go wrong with this one. But even strangers to the series should give Geometry Wars: Galaxies a shot as they'd be hard pressed to find a more satisfying 2D shooter out there.
