  1. And if the shield was gone and the enemies were fewer, and more varied, it could have been a lot like an actual videogame, with a difficulty curve, rather than a bewildering ascent up a six-foot cliff onto an endless plateau of tedium.

    As it stands now, E4 is a major disappointment. The endless mode is so easy that it's really only an exercise in endurance: you play As it stands now, E4 is a major disappointment. The endless mode is so easy that it's really only an exercise in endurance: you play till you want to, period. The so called GeoWars like "revenge mode" is borderline broken as well: just use the frontal shot and make left-right sweeps of the screen and youìll be fine for a VERY LONG TIME. Read: more than you're going to want to play anyway. E4's only saving graces are the time limited modes and the online multiplayer battles which at least work. Anyway, I think that with a small patch the game could become easily a 7 or an 8, especially by balancing the endless mode. Some suggestions: Time capped at 1 minute instead of 3, time bonuses giving out 2 seconds in place of 5, implementing a life system based on timing (e.g. you don't lose a bomb when you hit the timing perfectly, and you earn a life when you hit the timing right 5 times, something like that.)

You can no longer charge your blast, or do a remote detonation, but the game seems more refined without those options. Plus you do not face bosses. This version is about gathering quickens, multipliers, and time extends. The chains are much longer, which can often cause your game to end if it runs so long you don't respawn to pick up time extends. There is a certain zen to it not unlike tetris or lumines. And the music is good and consistent with the other Q Entertainment games. If you don't like it you play your own tracks and match the bpm to them. This game is absolutely worth the $10...unless you are an idiot who'd rather be dashing across Valhalla with a blue flag in your mits all day. Full Review »
