any good arcade game should leave the player with some sort of disdain for it to keep you pushing through)now i arrive here, revisiting this game on personal computer first of all, even with the "bright flashy lights mode" this does not hit or vibe as hard as the 360 version, the way the backgrounds look and react to the sound and game on the 360 build is phenomenal sht... consequently this beautiful hazy game was hard to see things on the screen, so toning it down a little bit to increase clarity is understandable, though i still find the 360 to be the better experience if you have access to it. the gameplay itself, you are essentially herding, shooting (automatically) to maintain the power zone and defend from projectiles, spikes and other enemies that cannot be bulled. knowing where to aim your shots in the levels to be able to defend yourself & fill the power zone as you gather the herd to take care of them. a very soothing game, yet it does not skimp out on the difficulty at all. relax, yet maintain awareness. once you get used to the games whacked out mechanics the flow seems to become natural, until it's stomping time. leaves me feeling some sort of a clarity in my head. it still looks great here, i have not tried the clearer version of this game, but its presence is appreciated. a legendary fn game(any sort of line breaks i add to this review seem to be breaking i do not like it)
