Here it is, Its been reproduced for PC, it has full Gamepad support. Even full support for the xbox 360 gamepad WITH VIBRATION..!!
So if you havent played G.W:E.R., yet.. Here you go, Its pretty much the moth faithful reproduction you can find, less a few minor differences.
System requirements:
CPU - 2GHz or better
Graphics card - geforce3 or better

It would be much better if you shot more bullets/whatever it is out because 1 bullet per second is to little.

It's good. something to get me through lectures instead of using 3d games that make my notebook's fan sound like a hairdryer.

Umm, I don't think Bungie has anything to worry about

i'll stick to 360.

Thats pretty nifty and with some more work it could be made into an almost direct clone, and goes to show a fast PC can run at least some of the effects on software + gpu overlay succesfully. Though geowars has several times the amount of particles flying around than I managed to get with a couple minutes of playing this.
Also, is this some Japanese guys sorry attempt to undermine the X360 even further by cloning its arcade games for free download? As if they havent proven their point already with their effin boycott, they have to rub it in with this kind of crap.

Agreed. This Geometry wars ripoff is nowhere near as good as Halo 2!
Anyhoo, this game sucks. It is too different to be a clone, but too close to the original to be considered unique.

It's pretty cool. It's not the real geo wars though.

god, the game is in development. it has made significant improvements from the first versions. just give it time, it will be very comparable.
also, it can be played on a p3 1ghz with a gf2 ultra. averages around 35 - 48fps which i found to be fine for that game.

Thats right, its in development, and it still sucks at this stage. Whoever made this should have waited until it was good before it was realeased.

its more like the retro geo wars with the evolved graphical style
they still need some powerups, enemy variation, music, scrolling screen to get up there with geo wars evo
other than that, its a pretty impressive little program
