Caffeine! That's the secret to doing well in this game. The gameplay is so quick that any stimulant is a plus :-)

User Rating: 8 | Uno Rush X360
Opinion - I love the original DLC UNO game and play ever so often when I need a break from long JRPGs or FPS multiplayer matches. When this version was releashed I was wondering what the RUSH part was all about. Boy, was I surprised. Little did I know how quick the action to move in this game. Yes, you can see your opponent's cards and try to set up your hand in expectation of what the pile is gravitating towards, but the pace of the game requires quick decisions, nimble fingers, and very little hesitation. It's definitely not a game to play when you're tired - like UNO. This is why I stated that caffeine is an definite plus - as long as you don't drink too much and end up being a nervous wreck.

Positive - Guess what! You can shake your avatar's head and move it around like you're bopping to a beat. This caused me to crack up when it became addictive with other gamers. In between matches there's a pause and you can see your full avatar with the previous round's stats. During this time all four avatars were bopping, shaking, and whipping their heads around that we forgot that a match was going on. When everyone was done making fools out of their avatars the A button was pressed and the game continued. Good times, good times. The graphics looks great. Getting in and out of a game was seamless and no lag in gameplay. Oh, and you can even bring a guest from your console to online matches.

Negative - If you don't like make quick decisions and constantly on edge during a UNO match this is not the game for you. You should try the regular UNO game. This is an entirely different animal. I would suggest downloading the trial version of RUSH and try it on for size before committing.

Overall - The game is well with the MS points. I gave it a an 8.0 (B). It set out to do exactly what its suppose to do. It wasn't earth shattering, that why my score wasn't higher. But a good solid game with excellent graphics and sound.
