Well, I started out bored. Then I hit wave 35! And became really bored. That fact can be atributed to the fact that it went from bieng impossible for anyone with hands to lose, to completely impossible to lose. 1000 guards and 50 repairers, and after that, the only thing you click is the next level button? Well, thats "fun".
The only reason I perservered this far was in the vague, folorn hope that something might actually happen.
Also, did you even listen to the sounds that are used in the game? They're ear renchingly headache inducing when heard hundreds of times a minute (or indeed, at all). And you can't even turn them off. I had to turn off my headphones, and that meant I couldn't even listen to music while I endured this. It's like you went out of your way to annoy me :P

I'm liking this game a lot. One of the better games of its type with a well balanced difficulty curve. To those people who are sayng it gets too hard after the 2nd wave or somesuch...seriously. Wave 28 is where it gets hard :) I'll be damned if I can figure out how to kill that mass of enemies.
There are a few problems with turret rotation and of great irritance is that after using the Shockwave, the guns swich back to the starter weapon, not the one you had on before you switched to the shockwave.
The 4 turret thing feels a bit gimmicky though. Suppose becaues of the absurd energy it drains, I never feel its of much (read: any) use.

and fairly original, but it very much feels like one of those pre loader games you sometimes get while movies and the like are loading. 5 minutes of fun, but still, 5 minutes is better than 0 minutes. ^^

It is pretty fun, I suppose, but it takes too long to start getting intresting (about wave 25...) Need to really steepen that difficulty curve, so to speak. Make it harder, earlier, shorter.
Also, I'm not quite sure if its a bug or its intentional, but trying to fire while the red reload bar is decreasing seems to usually reset the reload bar, which seriously slows down your fire rate, and also makes the "Increase rate of fire" upgrade somewhat rubbish after the first couple of upgrades.

This was terrible. Quite often the arrows didn't correspond to any part of the songs, and when they did, they were almost always out of sync with the songs themselves, and your choice of what layer of the songs to synch with were, in general, plain bizzare.
The fact that 1 button press will activate 2 arrows if they are close together seems to be a limiting factor on the difficulty of the game, which makes the whole thing very easy. Also, the arrow patterns themselves bored to the point of tears.
I don't think I can imagine a better way to ruin some awsome music.

I went and watched all the compliations back to back and now my throat hurts from all the laughing. Just writing this as a warning to anyone thinking of doing the same.
"Use your zappy gun. Pew! Pew! Kaplowiy" really made my day by the way.

The kind of thing you could go to hell for just by watching. Very funny. Plus 1 point for bringing back memories of university. (make of that what you will ^_^)

I was very much expecting an interview with a gamer. Its a nice twist on it all. And also very funny. Which helps.

At least, taking the piss out of 1337 speak never gets old. Kinda wish I knew how that scrolling message at the bottom of the screen at the end of the film finishes.

It's just like the real thing, I can't tell the two films apart.
