Ikaruga is a game that may seem hard at first but soon becomes ridiculously easy.

This "mottled dove" flies high as an XBox Arcade download.
I had my first experiences with this extraordinary game back when I played my friends' copy on the GameCube. Out of all the arcade shooters I have played, few were as deeply challenging and innovative as this. My frien... Read Full Review

The game that will make your jaw drop, time and time again.
In an era where games are getting relatively simpler and much easier, this is a gem that outshines all the others with its cruel and punishing difficulty. But why would a difficult game be fun? Well, have you ever walked... Read Full Review

Ikaruga is one of the best Live Arcade games.
Ikaruga is an extremely fast-paced 2D space shooter that requires a lot of memorization. Story of Ikaruga is pretty interesting, but the way that it's told is not. I had to look in Wikipedia in order to know anything ... Read Full Review
