Speaking of the Groovitron, it's returned and looks better than ever. As a weapon you can fire at enemies that immediately turns everything from lowly grubs up to towering aliens into disco-dancing phenoms, it never gets old encountering an enemy and seeing what their boogie animation will be.

And that's just one weapon. Standard blasters, grenades and sniper rifles are on-hand too, but it's the likes of the above, the chat-happy robo- helper Mr. Zurkon, the de-rezzing Pixelator or the does-what-it-says-on-the-tin Sheepinator that keep the chuckles coming alongside the explosions.

You only really get to unlock a couple of new guns per level, which keeps the flow of everything tight and consistent. You'll just be getting used to something or trying out a new weapon, only for another to show up in the Gadgetron vendor - a great way to introduce you to every last one.
