There’s no question that Aegis Wing is fun and challenging, but it would be a hard sell if it wasn’t a giveaway.

Aegis Wing is a pretty decent looking and sounding 2D side-scrolling shooter with a nice twist on co-op multiplayer. The free price tag somewhat makes up for the lack of ship variation and small number of levels.

Yes, it’s free. It’s also repetitive, tedious, unambitious and boring. You know how they say “time is money”? Don’t spend your time on this game.

Its a free game. Its entirely functional, it was made by a very small team in a very short amount of time. More fun playing with friends than solo. But really, what more can you ask for for free? I downloaded the game when it first came out and had a great time, and it is still available for free to this day. If you like horizontal shmups or just need to kill an hour its worth the sub gigabyte download. I dont know why I was thinking about this game today, but i felt it needed more ratings on here.

I have no idea why i spent so much time on this game. It was prob my most played 360 game, was a game you could easily play with anyone online.

Despite being a bit basic in its presentation, Aegis Wing is a fun shooter for any group that can work together. [Sept 2007, p.69]

Aegis Wing is a rich featured, well polished, well designed and great produced shmup game out there. And it's free, what is superb. I didn't expect much from a free space shooter, but after half hour playing it on-line I was totally addicted to it -- had to get all achievements in a heartbeat. Remarkable game. Highly recommended.

It’s an excellent diversion when you just want to play something simple and fun with your friends for an hour or two.

The levels that you fly through have all been seen a hundred times before. [Issue 28, p.118]

This is a very basic, very rubbish side-scrolling shooter with some knobs on. [Aug 2007, p.92]

I don't expect much from a free game. The plot's very basic, the controls are what you'd expect from a horizontal shoot-em-up, and there are a few features that are interesting (you have a health bar, power-ups have limited use, etc.). However, everything else about this game reminds you that this IS a free game. The backgrounds are uninteresting, the enemies are your basic fly-in-formation enemies, music's nothing special and it's fairly short (as to be expected from shooters of this type). For a free game, it's decent, but there are far better shooters on XBLA. Only die-hard shoot-em-up fans should bother with this game.
Summary[Xbox Live Arcade] 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 sh... Read More
