'While Ion Assault’s gameplay is interesting and fairly unique with some depth to how you can approach each level, but it’s the overall lack of modes or features that makes this worth its 800 points price ($10 in US dollars).'

'A superb addition to the Xbox Live Arcade library that is full of shoot ‘em ups. It’s a smart purchase for any Geometry Wars fan that is dying to fill their time with a similar title. The controls could’ve been tightened up and the single-player campaign could’ve been longer, but in the long run, Ion Assault is a surprisingly great title for 800 MS Points.'

'Thanks to the frustrating controls, short campaign and the slightly problematic chaos that comes with the action, only fans of the genre should fork over the ten dollar asking price. Still, that doesn’t mean that Ion Assault doesn’t provide colorful thrills by the truckload.'
