  1. Fairly good, enjoyable.
    by daisyborat, USA - May 6th 2013

    Intro movie -8/10 Got me excited and made me want to play
    Rain Animation -6/10
    Drawings -7/10
    Character Anim. -6/10
    Battle control -8/10 Faily good but hard to get the characters where you want them when you want them there.. Only becomes issue when in a 1-1 ratio, evenly balanced fight when control becomes the key factor to winning. I feel they could have made the characters a bit more intelligent, easier to control, and easier to tell what is what on the field.

    originality -7/10
    Sounds -7/10 A lot of the guns, ships, etc sound the same, needs more variety
    Length of play 7/10, lots of add ons and other missions, but the main game isnt that long

    Buy it on sale, it isnt worth 40 bucks. 30 dollars its a solid game, under 30 you definitley need to buy it, under 20 you are nuts to not give it a try. Thanks for reading.
