There is one small playing note. This game seems to be designed for the Xbox S-controller. Reaching the white and black buttons with the regularity required by this game is a damn nuisance on the Duke model. If you have not gotten an S-controller yet, this game is as good an excuse as you’re going to get to invest in one.

It has been a while since I’ve had so much pure joy while playing a game. It rates a full five Game Sharks. Psi-Ops is a terrific game that gathers many elements of earlier games in a new and unique way. It is only moderately difficult so everyone should have a good time. This really is a must-own game for Xboxers.

Considering Midway’s offerings so far this year, I can’t wait for Area-51!
