Deathsmiles on 360

Deathsmiles Screen Shots

Deathsmiles is a Shooting game available on the 360. It can be played in Cooperative modes.

Deathsmiles is a Shooting game. Shooting games present a world in which the character must shoot their way out of dangerous situations. They provide the player with an array of weapons tailored to specific tasks. This unavoidably involves a combination of fisticuffs and gun based fighting that dictates the violent nature of these experiences. Beneath this harsh exterior though is often an intricate tactile game - and this is usually what drives the player.

Deathsmiles can be played in a Cooperative mode. Cooperative Multiplayer games provide an experience that is played symaltaneously by multiple players. Unlike the simple arena competitive multiplayer style games where players try to kill the most enemies, true co-operative games are designed to take a group of players through a campaign experience together. This will involve sections where players have to work together to proceed - either from the sheer difficulty as in Halo 3 on 360 or by the design of levels such as LittleBigPlanet on PS3.

another retro craze that's pretty mega is the persistence of quaint side-scrolling, mental, ballistic-based arcade shoot 'em ups -- or 'shmups' as the kids call them (and when i say 'kids' i mean, of course, men in their mid-thirties). the fact that retro fetishism has preserved this exhilarating and not at all utterly-repetitive, brain frying gaming genre almost makes up for all the unemployment.
