    Nah, youre completely sane. You give the gamer/buyer the feeling they have to buy YOUR console to play the specific game they want. Well that was back then so shows over 🙁 Nowadays exclusive games are virtually nonexistant (not counting the Wii of course) as 99.97% of the games are cross-platforms. This unfortunately means that you pick a console based on hilarious choices like brand, looks & your neighbor 😛

    When consoles adopted C++ & scripts an angel died… Damn cookie cutters.

    A completely agree. I mean…some people say this was their “flag ship game” and therefore it should be used to make-money (and not packed in). To me, that is backwards. You pack in “flag ship games” to SELL consoles. You know? I don’t know…I guess I’m just crazy. 🙂

    Can we say system pack-in fiasco here? what reason could they possibly have had to include this one with the system besides trying to make an extra 50$? I mean geez, put a game most people will say “WOW! I have to play this!” & they will buy the system. Nintendo knew this as they included a mario game with almost every system back then. Sometimes im not surprised the system failed over here 😛

    Great review of a must play title if you consider yourself a serious gamer.

    I agree. I have a soft spot for this one….but the later overhead shooters have become a favorite of mine also. Ha ha.
    Thanks for watching!

    Great game, unfortunate title. I don’t know if I like this or Soldier Blade more, this has more of a techno/old school video game feel while SB has more of an anime feel. This game has better weapons.
