Aegis Wing is surprisingly very fun.
« on: May 22, 2007, 08:33:45 PM »
the co-op mode at least.  4 players is a blast on insane mode.  single player is ass though, i'd recommend everyone stay away from it.  who's up for an EB session sometime?

I'm working 2 PM to 9:30 PM tomorrow and 10:00 AM to 6:30 PM the next day.  They're not heinous shifts, but retail shifts always feel longer :P

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE, thread!

I've been playing this with a friend at work during lunch and it's pretty damned fun. Playing alone is useless, it's just a cheap R-Type clone with bad music, but playing cooperatively is a different story. Using power-ups effectively as a team is fun; combining ships and raining down death with one player using the shield while another uses the Big Ass Laser is a lot of fun.

I suck at R-Type style shmups and bullet hell games just stress me out, so I'm surprised to find myself enjoying this.

Yeah, I suspect it was deemed "not quite enough" for a paid title... but I'm still baffled why they didn't make it available across all regions.

We played local multi with four players on Friday night and it was fun; I didn't previously notice how much the freakin' power-ups get boosted when all voltron'd out.
