Aegis Wing may be old news for some, but in the age of tight budget co-op games it doesn't get much better than free. We take a look at the Xbox Live Arcade shooter and its four player co-op in our latest review.
Verdict
The Co-Op Experience: Aegis Wing is a side-scrolling space combat game reminiscent of classic eighties arcade hits. It features alien-busting action, slick graphics, an orchestral soundtrack, and devastating power-ups. Also included is a unique cooperative mode of play in which up to three additional players can "attach" to the leader's ship and become independent, 360-degree gun turrets. Best of all, Aegis Wing is available as a free download from Xbox LIVEŽ Arcade to all Gold and Silver members!
