Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved is a old school style shooter, but remixed for the 21st century with next generation graphics and deep, modern gameplay. Playing is simple: you are a geometric "ship" trapped in a grid world, facing off against waves of deadly wanderers, snakes, and repulsars.

A classic from my childhood. Good fun arcade action.
Short review: a decade ago, It was basically ''the hot thing'' for a while... and man, still mindless fun today!
easily the best xbox360 arcade game, now on steam (for like a decade+)
You've probably already played Geometry Wars to be here checking out this game. Or you're wondering how it got into your library. It's Geometry Wars. Consider using a Windows XP compatibility mode. I literally have no further comment.
It's a classic. One of the gems from the Xbox 360 days which made people realise that a game doesn't have to be a hundred million dollar AAA game to be fun and addictive. If one day there is a video game hall of fame then Geometry Wars is right in there. The soundtrack alone will make you want to play. It's a shame there's no achievements in this version but other than that this is all killer, no filler. Also hard as triceratops ♥♥♥♥.
My first and one my favorite twin stick shooters. You get the same zen state gaming that shmups provide but in a more compact play space. Wish the 2nd game in the series was available that one was amazing.
i was in the top 100 on xbox 360, this game is awesome and insane at the same time.
Cool arcade game for testing your reflexes in small gaming sessions
