I recommend that everyone who has a 360 try this game on the Xbox Live Arcade.
When you buy this game, ($5 USD/400 MSP) you unlock the retro version which was included in PGR2. You also remove the timer that will only let you play for so long. But the best thing that you unlock is the scoreboard features.
I have became really addicted to this game, and so has one of my best friends, I'll score a high score, he'll see it on his leaderboard and then have to out do me. The worldwide scoreboards and basically just the same. They go up to somewhere around 3 million points.
My friend's and my scores have gone basically like this:
Me: 95k
Him: 97k
Me: 105k
Him: 120k
Me: 150k
Him: 197k
Me: 195k <i know i didn't beat him there but before i could he got scared
Him: 220k
Me: 292k
That's where we are now, I just scored that 292k mark and my heart was seriously pumping some blood throughout my body trying to keep up with my brain, eyes, and hands. This is seriously one of the best games I've EVER played, it has pretty neat graphics for a 2D Robotron 2084 clone, but it's nothing revolutionary or anything. _________________________________________________________

I played the demo...cant make up my mind if i liked it or not...pretty much ended up just moving the joystick around and then i would realize i wasnt actually controlling what i thought i was and have to reposition my track of mind....interesting though...later. _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.6
