Geometry Wars
Geometry Wars
Ok, so I figured I would start a thread about Geometry Wars since it is my favorite Xbox 360 game.
Oh, who am I kidding... I just want to let everyone know I finally broke a million.
1,042,368
Sadly, I started searching around and it sounds like a mill is pretty small beans. I am currently around #3000 on the leader board. Lots of people seem to get around 5 million. Sigh... that's a long way to go.

Around 100,000 is when things start to get hectic. Believe it or not, it gets much worse after around a quarter million . You have to sort of take in the whole screen at once with your peripheral vision. Sometimes I even momentarily lose track of which ship is me, but somehow I keep going. And things are happening so fast that there isn't time to formulate a plan, so playing has to be by instinct at that point. Try to destroy the black holes right away, and try to clear a path with your shots and then fly into it to get some breathing room. But it is a really fun game. The funniest thing is to be voice-chatting with Chris while he is playing it.
Yeah, I can't seem to get there anymore myself. In fact, one game I survived 500k, had 9 lives, and still didn't hit 1 million. Seems like once I start crashing into stuff I die at least 2 - 3 times in a row. There is definatly a mental aspect to it too. Getting taken out by some silly diamond when you have a 7x multiplier is really a downer.
