Defending 3D cities from a wave of 2D retro baddies inSpace Invaders Get Evensounded pretty cool to me. But, after hearing of this pricing scheme, some of the Do Want-ness has worn off..
Game|Lifesays that although the game is priced at 500 Wii Points ($5), you’ll have to pay that much for each of the four levels, making the total package $20.
To be fair, I haven’t had a chance to play Get Even yet. Game|Life seems to dig it after playing a bit of the Japanese release, but says that the thrill didn’t last that long:
Unfortunately, my $5 went rather quickly — it won’t take very long before you’ve finished the first set of three levels and the game gives you the modern-day equivalent of “Insert Coin To Continue.”
I love the ideas behind this game, but I don’t love the pricing or episodic release structure. What do you think?
