    A very good and diverse action/shooter that is incredibly fun when played solo or with a friend on xbox live. The graphics are nice and colorful and the gameplay brings a nice variety of challenges. Additionally, this game is very challenging with five difficulty levels to keep you busy. The only negative is that this game is a bit on the short side.

The only negative is that this game is a bit on the short side. There are 16 levels, with most of those having a few rooms per level. I thought there should've been at least 8 or 12 more levels than what is offered. Overall, play the demo and if it seems up you're alley then go ahead and purchase the game.… Expand

    I was beginning to think this game would never be released, when suddenly, out of nowhere, there it was, available on Live Marketplace for 800 points.

Mutant Storm Empire is a terrific game start-to-finish, like its predecessor Reloaded, but instead takes a Smash TV-like approach where you blast your way through interconnected arenas. The enemies are as wonderfully unique as the strategies needed to defeat them. Just when you think you've got a solid grasp on the game, it tosses something completely different at you. The only flaw I found was the fact that several of the Achievements just aren't possible for most players... but this really is a very minor thing and has little to no bearing on how much you'll enjoy the game. Mutant Storm Empire is as good as Live Arcade games get, and is well worth your $10.… Expand

    Whether you're flanking foes together or dodging gracefully in a solo session, Empire is a fast, well-designed blast-a-thon. [Nov 2007, p.94]

    The only things that stop it reaching higher are that the combo system seems to be pitched a little bit above the average gamer's skill level, and could have been more inclusive, and that despite getting the basics very right it doesn't build on that as excitingly or inventively as some of the genre's best.

    It’s hard to go wrong with Mutant Storm Empire for 800 Microsoft Points, eve if you have never played Reloaded. With stunning 3D graphics and the perfect blend of mindless and strategic twitch blasting, Mutant Storm Empire is a near perfect Halloween treat.
