    One of the most gleefully insane titles to come along in a quite awhile. 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.

    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    The best Xbox 360 game by eons and galaxies.

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.    … Expand

    It's one original offering. [Issue#74, p.100]

    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.

    A patchy but occasionally outstanding oddity. [Issue#110, p.132]
