In my opinon, one of the few "Arcade" orginal games. I hated Geometery Wars because it was difficult. Yes, lame I know, but true to fact, I had to work for every point that came a ship I blew up. A week ago I got together with several friends, all who play on Xbox live. The sang the praises of GW 2, I scoffed at them and teased them (secretly wanting to do as well as they did in the first game). Later that same night I went home and down loaded the demo (yet another fantastic idea)...I really like this game. I love beating my friends and keeping the competitive spirit that was inherit in the arcades alive in the home console genre. Score chasing is the small victory that keeps players playing together. It was the put-up-or-shut-up factor in gaming in it's infancy and I am happy to contribute to it's continuation. BTW, great article!
