Review: Savage Moon

Hmmmmm, actually sounds quite good. I think you've sold it to me Susan. This might be just the game to tide me over for a couple of weeks, until I can officially afford to buy a full new game.
Wait, Don't tower defence games belong on the interwebs?
Interesting cross to a console, even if tower defence is basicly all the same. Gotta love Starship Troopers though.

Hmm...tough call...depends on how much you love tower defense games in general, I suppose. If you just dabble in them, then Monsters will probably keep you well satisfied.Indigo_Dingo said:
I would say yes, less difficult than Monsters, because I didn't want to throw anything when I played it. I finished one level - the one I was talking about in the intro to the review - only because of a glitch in the AI that left an enormous super scorpion walking aimlessly in circles. I beat the level, but it wasn't an honest win, so I thoroughly plan on being it fair and square. Beating anything in Monsters was really more a sense of relief than anything else.Indigo_Dingo said:
Hmmm, its strange, but I wanna play GemCraft now, for some reason. Okay, lets do that...

I cannot agree emphatically enough with every word in that post. Savage Moon is more fun for a whole lot longer than Monsters, and I LOVE Monsters (yes, even the old school, stupid hard version).Susan Arendt said:
I played this game all last night (PSN release times are GMT, so US gets things at 8PM the date before release, generally), and it's very much like playing an updated version of the original Tower Defense in Starcraft. The updates would be the full 3D and the fully Starship Troopered settings. This version adds just enough newness to make the whole thing fun again, and with console friendly controls to boot.
I always liked tower defence games sence WC3 (I'm a statgy game junkie, real time or otherwise). Though like with any new genre that becomes popular waves and waves of knockoffs come out and you have to sort through them to see which ones got it right. This one looks to have done so. I'd say this looks to be the most graphicly advanced one I've seen.
Well geez... I've never played a tower defense game. And here I was thinking I had seen it all. Is there anything similar available on Xbox Live, perchance?
I don't own a 360, so I can't tell you if it's any good, but "Defense Grid: The Awakening" is a TD game for XBL and PC. Google has all your details. Hope this helps.Clemenstation said:
