Geometry Wars video hurts

We think we've underestimated Xbox 360 gamers. Not that we didn't hold them in high regard, but we just assumed that they were all humans. We don't know how anyone can play Geometry Wars and see what's going on through all the sparks and particle effects. It must require a feat of concentration just to track your own ship on the screen. We could barely play Bangai-O on the Dreamcast, and this is like Bangai-O with everything made of sparks.
Wii gamers are going to get extra complexity in Geometry Wars: Galaxies, since we'll have to track not only our ship but also the Wiimote-controlled aiming reticle. It's like training your brain! Also, oooooh pretty.

I said that it looked confusing on Joystiq and the 360 fanboys said that was nothing.

Particles? On my Wii?

Being a wii60 fanboy, I'd like to point out that this is EARLY in the game, and is really quite straight forwards compared to how it gets - you really have to zone out everything to get the most out of the game. It's a great game, good enough that I'll probably pick it up for the wii as well.
