Geometry Wars Evolved 2 (360)

So The Rev thought he could beat four of my scores, eh? Of course, they didn’t last long. I’d soon overtaken three of them again, and then went and improved even further on the two he couldn’t beat anyway (Pacifism and Sequence). I’m nice like that. Oh, and his Deadline score? He cheated.
