  1. There have been quite a few really promising DSiWare titles of late, but none come even close to matching 3D Space Tank.
  2. Despite the occasional visual and control quirks, X-Scape is, quite simply, a fantastic follow-up to a game that the West barely knew. Loaded with content, ambitious and borderline experimental in aesthetic, it's got enough meat on its bones to rival a lot of retail releases and certainly stands tall on DSiWare.
  3. 83
    If X-Scape's '80s style and immersive first-person gameplay catches your eye, then there's a damn good chance you'll love this throwback adventure. It's easily one of the most unique titles exclusively available for the DSi.
  4. Not bad for the unlikely sequel to a game hardly anyone played. [Sept 2010, p.96]
  5. One of the DS's best first person shooters, whether you remember Star Fox and Starglider (and X) or not.
