This was just released today on Xbox Live Arcade for 400 points. I immediately shelled out and bought it.
The single player is the game we all know and love. Only you can choose from three different sets of graphics - Normal, Enhanced 1 and Enhanced 2.
Normal is the same coin-op sprites, enhanced is a completely redrawn set of sprites, and enhanced 2 is the same as enhanced 1 but with a different background aswell. Not too bad!
Within 5 minutes i've already gained about 35 - 40 gamerpoints through the achievements, though. I reckon the others are quite damn hard though... Wave 100 anyone? ;)
Online play is both ranked and non-ranked. Ranked matches are *VERSUS* only, and you can only create match or quick join, so you're facing a random opponent. Non-ranked matches are co-operative or versus.
Now i'm not sure how the versus works out as I appear to be the only person on Xbox Live with this game at the moment. http://ntsc-uk.domino.org/images/smilie/blink.gif But the moment I find an opponent i'll let you know how it plays out.
