Xbox Marketplace: Mutant Storm Empire Review
Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed
Many people ask me on a daily basis if I am a gamer. No, I’m really not. I’m more of a casual gamer. When Xbox 360 came out with Mutant Storm, I was impressed. Then… I got to try out the sequel. I admit it. I’m hopelessly addicted.
Mutant Storm Empire is literally a blast to play. If you’re familiar with the game called Geometry Wars, you’ll find the game play is very similar, as far as the controller. The buttons do the same things, and the directions to move are the same.
A summary of the game from Sony:
There’s this evil emperor, see, and … well, he’s evil. Now someone has decided to put a stop to the whole evilness thing, and that someone is you. It’s the right thing to do! Besides, in Mutant Storm Empire, it’ll be fun. Battle through line after line of the emperor’s minion horde, destroying absolutely everything you can! Blast through bunches of robots, crush colonies of aquatic monsters, smash swarms of UFOs, and demolish devastating bosses. It’s a continuous adventure through four immense, strikingly vibrant worlds, and you can fight alone or join forces with a friend in two-player cooperative mode. Enjoy the frenzy!
There you have it. If you buy only one game from 360 Live this year, it should definitely be this one.

Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction – start playing at 10PM & the next thing you know it’s 2:30AM :^)
I’ve played MSE as well, and it’s pretty good as well. Sort of a cross between Geometry Wars and Assault Heroes’ on-foot levels with a bunch of gameplay variety thrown in for good measure.

Marble Blast Ultra
No question. Best XBLA game by a long shot.
Easy to learn. Great graphics. Great game play.
It’s so addicting to keep trying to get better times than my friends, and the multi-player levels are great too.
One of the first titles avalible for XBLA, and still one of the best.
