    Treasure offers another Xbox Live Arcade remake of one of its former glory, after Ikaruga and waiting Radiant Silvergun. Bangai-O HD: Missile Fury adds some interesting options such as co-op, revise the control system experiencing Geometry Wars double-stick and enhances the level editor. On balance, however, this remake proves difficult for novices with its rather steep difficulty curve, while those who have already fleeced on Dreamcast or Nintendo DS will hardly muster the impetus necessary for another take.

    Bangai-O HD: Missile Fury is colorful, loud and fast-paced. Either you love this kind of game or you hate it. Very nice to see an editor in such a game.

    Despite a few drawbacks Bangai-O HD is a fun, chaotic experience that is aimed at the hardcore shooter crowd.

    If videogames are systems of learning, then Bangai-O is a scatterbrained professor teaching advanced calculus.

The amount of action on-screen at any given time is simply mind-boggling, with a steep learning curve to match. Especially great for small children, grandma, and the easily-frustrated.… Full Review »

    The best Xbox 360 game by eons and galaxies.

    Hundreds of enemies and thousands of missiles immediately besiege you from all directions, but    The best Xbox 360 game by eons and galaxies.

    Hundreds of enemies and thousands of missiles immediately besiege you from all directions, but you can win! Because you are the explosive invincible Bangai-O! Unfortunately, you won't win, because despite the editor being the strongest learning tool in the universe, you won't put the effort in to learn. Then you'll write a 7/10 review complaining the game is too hard. But don't listen to those reviews, listen to me. You will never, ever find another action game this good for $10.    … Full Review »
