All of that said, Assault Android Cactus is a stellar arcade title that it worth picking up if you don’t already own it. Microsoft has been lagging behind Sony in terms of quality in recent months though, and that doesn’t appear to be changing in July as the highlight of the month is a backward compatible Splinter Cell game from 2010. Summer has unsurprisingly been somewhat slow for video games, but Microsoft and Sony have been keeping us afloat with free games like XCOM 2, Trials Fusion, and Metal Gear Solid V. Pro players who do nothing else for a living would find it boring and repetitive, glad I am not one of those “gamerz” and can enjoy some classic arcade action.E3 2018 is over, the month is coming to an end, and Microsoft has announced its next slate of free Games with Gold for Xbox Live Gold subscribers. Reviews weren’t the greatest at the Microsoft Store, but this isn’t a game for everyone.

Even with the difficulty it has that “one more try” aspect to it. Upper levels are fairly difficult and boss battles will take more than one try to beat, but so did Mike Tyson in Punchout, so I dont feel too bad.

This game has a great difficulty curve to it. Some just completely suck and I tend to gravitate towards certain characters. Each new character doesn’t always mean a better option. Being VERY Japanese in nature in both character design and dialog, I was waiting for an “ All your base are belong to us” moment.Vibrant colors, fast-paced action and an ever changing play field splash across your screen at a frantic pace leaving a few “what the hell just killed me” moments.Īssault Android Cactus has a variety of characters each with different weapon systems you unlock progressing through the game.

The background story consists of Junior Constable Cactus responds to a distress call and ends up stranded on a crippled space freighter under attack by its own robot workers. Since Robotron and Smash TV are some of my all-time favorites, I instantly gravitated towards it. The gameplay takes the sphincter clinching action of a bullet hell shooter and combines it with the dual stick control mechanism of the classics Robotron/Smash TV. This game popped up on my Xbox Live membership as a free download and I was very surprised.
