the green guys are the worst for that first 10k,... with the shitty gun, they are hard,....... after that i agree they are easy to "herd"

i know you can "kill" the blackholes in the first geometry wars, but i havent done it in the Evolved version.... but i kinda like the blackholes anyways,... they suck the bad guys away from you...... and they are oh so pretty..... it's too bad the acheivements aren't worth much in this game, it's soo hard they should make em worth more.....

I think MS dictates the total number of Gamer Points that can be distributed per game. Full retails get around 1000 and Live Arcade games get about 200. I think it can vary from game to game but ultimately MS controls it.

I am also totally hooked on this game. I played it a bunch in PGR and decided to actually buy it... This and Hexic get about 75% of the playtime on my 360... I never would have thought I'd be dropping hundreds of dollars to play $5 arcade games in HD/Surround Sound on my home theater system... such overkill

I totally suck at GeoWars though... I've yet to make it to 250K (made 100K survivor no problem) and I usually die within the first 30 seconds going for pacifist mode... Though I did it in the PGR version before I bought the game and was pissed that I didn't get the achievment.

I'm much better at Hexic. I almost managed to get a black pearl flower, I was one pearl short and my game ended with a bomb... Bastards

And what the hell are you doing to get almost 500K Himura??? Teach me oh wise one!! Hahaha.

All I do when theres a lot guys surrounding me is I shoot and plow through in one single direction so I kill the guys im suppose to hit. Also, learn when to use the bombs, haha.

The white stars allow you to turn the 6 jewels around it in a direction. The black pearls are made by making a flower of white stars. Black pearls can move the 3 jewels on it's edges. That's all I know for now.

so, last weekend i managed to get ahold of some acid......... thought this would be easier to get in the 'zone' of obliterating geometric shapes,... but wholly shit man, i could barely squeek past 50k. It was impossible to tell what was going on when everything that went across the screen trailed for like 3 seconds.... but good fun none theless.

.....gunna try again this weekend

what ever floats your boat....

Himura · « **Reply #41 on:** December 04, 2005, 12:31:00 AM »

So, to keep this thread alive, I shall update on my score so far

I'm about 52k from hitting a million. You dont wanna know how loud I screamed when I died so close to that achievement

Get this, the most amazing part is that after 2 years of having the same entertainment system, she finally learned how to change the input on the TV so she could play the system...go GEOMETRY WARS!!!!

I swear, me and my brother go through that all the time in my family. Dunno HOW HARD it is to match up colors

Himura · « **Reply #43 on:** December 04, 2005, 10:27:00 PM »

LOL, ok then, I guess that was kinda worse than my situation

ahhh,... my bad, i feel like a douche trying to think i was better at a game than a mod,.... oh well,... my feeling of superiority was brief and wrongfully mine,..... apparently i certainly am no "big cheese of the south seas" but i'm gettin there damnit,....

(and sorry for bringing the hexic thing back up in this geometry wars thread - back to the colorful explosive acid induced seizure causing fun!)
