Geon emotions enjoys six game modes, with single-players facing ‘Time Attacks’ and ‘Duels’ while up to four people can compete in split-screen competitions that allow them to work together or battle it out in ‘Last Man Standing’ death-matches. Each game begins with players rushing to collect E-Motes before using their specific powers to debilitate the opposition. The use of E-Motes allows players to exploit the weakness of the emotions the CPU or rival players control. Rage, for instance, can be sedated with a powered-up Bliss attack, while Passion can be similarly tempered with a blast of Melancholy. With the opposition in disarray, the player can then charge across the two-sided play area to score the five goals needed to win the match. With its clever premise and fast-paced gameplay, Geon emotions is a frenetic and entertaining experience and marks the perfect Xbox LIVE Arcade debut for Eidos New Media. Geon emotions will be released for Xbox LIVE Arcade on Wednesday, September 19th priced at 800 Microsoft Points.
