joeybastard Posted July 31, 2008 Share Posted July 31, 2008 I'll reserve judgement until I actually play it, but from the screens it looks like it might suffer from TMSOSAO* for me. *Too Much Shit On Screen At Once Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickybaby Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) I'll reserve judgement until I actually play it, but from the screens it looks like it might suffer from TMSOSAO* for me. *Too Much Shit On Screen At Once While I might agree, I'm still a Galaga junkie as well and wish I had a 360 to try this on. ps - I really am a dork, lol. I happened to be wearing this TShirt as well today. Edited August 2, 2008 by Chickybaby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess Ragan Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Good grief, I actually have to agree with Atari5200 on this one. I don't like the "clogging the screen with obstructions" approach to game design... it makes games too chaotic and cluttered to enjoy. It's like the developers are trying to bring back the intensity of shooters like Robotron: 2084, but wind up taking things too far with a glut of enemies and distracting special effects. I call it "Jeff Minter syndrome." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liveinabin Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I don't believe you can have too many things on screen at once. I think video games should confuse and distract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammR25 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 (edited) Definitely too much stuff going on in my opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQwY9kPRTZY Edited August 2, 2008 by HammR25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 I'd say there IS AND SHOULD BE an upper limit as to how many things you can have going on a game screen before its "confusion and distraction" level makes game-playing well-nigh impossible.

ubersaurus Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Definitely too much stuff going on in my opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQwY9kPRTZY Watching that video, I just can't agree. What's all going on? Hordes of enemy patterns that you, you know, just shoot through? Outside of that there isn't much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PressureCooker2600 Posted August 2, 2008 Author Share Posted August 2, 2008 It's not as bad as Geometry Wars 2. That shit gets so cluttered....I don't know where the hell I am...like a bad acid trip. (and it looks like one to) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari5200 Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 geometry wars II is awesome. much better than the original. There's tons of things yes, but they don't make super blown out of proportion 3,400,500 color explosions everytime you shoot something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbanes Posted August 3, 2008 Share Posted August 3, 2008 Definitely too much stuff going on in my opinion. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQwY9kPRTZY Meh. That's not Galaga. That's a bullet hell game (aka "curtain fire") with destructible bullets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 It's not as bad as Geometry Wars 2. That shit gets so cluttered....I don't know where the hell I am...like a bad acid trip. (and it looks like one to) I disagree.. Games like the Asteroids "remix" on xbox live, you cant see where you are during some explosions, which sucks! In games like Geometry Wars 2.. I ALWAYS know where I am. You're never really obscured. I think you just need to focus your eyes on your ship a little better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari5200 Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 yep, I agree with that. I never really lose site of my ship. I think that is where the developers went right. Could they have made another fireworks on the screen display..yes, but they didn't and it works great for GW2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
