    Definitely one of the better arcade games around and it gives you a lot of bang for your buck. The game mechanics are very simple but it remains challenging and that's what is making it so addictive.

    If you like twitch games, Heavy Weapon is an explosively explosively good time. [Feb. 2007, p.75]

    A fun little game that gets a bit too repetitive for its own good. It's a well conceived shooter with some nice presentation and it does a fine job organizing the achievements.

    This game is very simple, yet very fun. If your just looking for a quick online/offline game this is the one, easy to pick up yet hard to master. The first half of the games single player is easy the second half more challenging. The online is fast paced and a lot fun. You can play it for 5 minutes or even a couple of hours. Lots of fun, download the demo and try it out.… Expand

    Twice the cost of Namco's reruns, three times the fun, and five times the replay value. Heavy Weapon is worth the 800 points for the 4-player co-op Live play alone. It's the perfect stress reliever after a hard day.… Expand
