  • Summary: XG Blast! is an arcade shooter delivered in a bright and colourful retro style. Players control a spaceship with the sole purpose of destroying the invading hordes before they do the same to you. A vast array of powerful weaponry and the special eXtreme Gravity blast creates a screen full of vibrant action with intensely addictive gameplay. Your ship is controlled using the D-pad and either the action buttons or the Touch Screen, allowing simple yet varied styles of play. [Rising Star Games]… Expand

    A great arcade blaster let down by the limits of the DS's controls, but it's still good fun. [Feb 2009, p.83]

    Ultimately, however, a somewhat frustrating difficulty curve, and an overall lack of originality, ensures that there is little reason to recommend this over Geometry Wars: Galaxies, despite its comparable competence.

    With lively graphics and a real pick-up-and-play attitude, XG Blast is an entertainingly addictive game.
