Review of Abduction Action! for Xbox 360

Abduction Action! for Xbox 360 is an over the top and hilarious indie game available from the Xbox Live Marketplace that places players in the role as the "worst pilot" in alien history. In Abduction Action! you have the opportunity of a lifetime to pilot an alien spaceship when your sister marries a high ranking commander in the alien military.

According to the description of Abduction Action! for Xbox 360 at the Fun Infused Games website:

"Developers at Fun Infused Games spent the last ten years and billions of Earth dollars researching and testing the latest in UFO technology to bring Xbox gamers the single most realistic UFO flight simulator ever created. The tractor beam, turbo mechanism, and flash bombs have all been painstakingly created to exactly match their real world counterparts. The flight system is so realistic that many Alien testers couldn't tell they weren't piloting a real UFO."

Controls in Abduction Action! are incredibly simple and intuitive. One drawback that should be noted is that there isn't any precision control in flying the UFO, however what can realistically be expected from the worst alien pilot in history?

Abduction Action! lets players abduct cows through the use of your UFO's tractor beam, or splatter them onto innocent bystanders by letting them go. When angry farmers decide to fight back, haystacks become incredibly potent weapons in the grip of your tractor beam.

The tractor beam is not the only weapon at your UFO's disposal however. Your UFO can launch "flash bombs". The flash bombs will momentarily stun enemies on the screen and help you accomplish your objectives. Players only receive two flash bombs per stage, so use them wisely! Your UFO can also speed up and become momentarily invincible. Not too shabby.

The graphics in Abduction Action! for Xbox 360 are reminiscent of Super Nintendo, and the game is a lot more visually appealing compared to other Xbox 360 indie games that are available from the Xbox Live Marketplace. There are a few interesting surprises that pop onto the screen over the course of the game (think Mortal Kombat 2). The sound effects in Abduction Action! are whimsical and fit the game perfectly.

What really makes Abduction Action! for Xbox 360 a great game is it's price. For less than the purchase price of a one liter bottle of soda, one can have hours of entertainment and laughs.

Abduction Action! for Xbox 360 costs 80 Microsoft Points ($1) from the Xbox Live Marketplace. You can purchase the game here. For more information on Abduction Action! for Xbox 360, visit funinfused.com.
