It seems that the only thing that Backbone did right in creating this Yaris advertisement for the Xbox Live Arcade is that they allowed users to download it for free. By playing this game the developers to my assumption and probably their's figured that gamers would go out and purchase a Yaris off the nearest car lot. Unfortunately, after downloading and then suffering through this arcade game, I realized that it had the absolute opposite affect of what it was supposed to achieve. First off, I had no idea what I was supposed to actually do during the game. Apparently, the game basically runs as a time-trial where you collect coins, avoid obstacles, and shoot alien looking blobs that move at speeds that are extremely too fast. In order to eliminate the aliens attempting to destroy your "Yaris" you have an ugly looking alien appendage sticking outside the hood of your vehicle. You can attempt to aim it at the aliens floating around you, but most of the time the game is running so fast that it is impossible to aim at the aliens and keep your vehicle from crashing into obstacles. When you do manage to shoot aliens, the game basically aims for you and destroys the enemies on screen no matter where your aiming target is at. Then there are the graphics which hurt my eyes, but it was expected from a game that was less than a 30mb download. Overall, the game is a complete waste of time, but since it's free if you are into collecting gamerpoints then you might as well complete the game, but it will take some time.
