Aegis Wing is a side-scrolling space combat game for Xbox Live Arcade, inspired by classic eighties arcade games like Gradius and Defender. Up to four players can join together on the same console or online, with up to three additional players attaching their ships to the leader's ship and becoming independent gun turrets. The game features slick graphics, an orchestral soundtrack, power-ups, and four powerful super weapons including Hades Beam (kills everything in its path), Gordon Burst (EMP pulse that kills all bullets and short circuits enemies), Arcus Missile (heat seeking missiles) and Lambda Shield (allows bullets to be deflected back at enemies). Get ready for some intense alien-busting action!
