    Finally! A Live Arcade game from the old arcade days that retains all of the tight gameplay of the original, while adding some new twists to keep things fresh.

    Despite its almost-famous face, Time Pilot is, and always has been, a great shooter. And Digital Eclipse's Xbox 360 version of the game showcases the original well, while also delivering one of the best graphical updates to hit Xbox Live Arcade so far.

    Konami's shooter consists of a decent original port, an excellent new HD upgrade, and a substandard online mode, all comprising a cheap ($5) but un-compelling addition to the XBLA archives.

    Considering the enhanced graphics actually make the game harder at times and the multiplayer feels like a lame plugin that is highly frustrating without a crisp network connection, this is just a well executed straight port of a 1982 game, and then I’d honestly recommend you spend your 400 Microsoft Points on the more than excellent Geometry Wars if you want a multidirectional shooter.
