Review:
Wow.  All I can say is wow.  I'm still in awe when I think about the time I used to play this game I will never get back.  I think I'd be sufficiently happy if I never have to play this piece of trash again.  But alas, the review must go on.

This is your typical vertical shooter.  Nothing really inventive here.  The lead scientist, Dr. Kaga of Project Burning, has been kidnapped by the big bad guy.  It's up to one of two (or both) quasi-manly "Angels" to rescue her in their fancy space ships.  Yes, the game features a two player simultaneous mode which wins some points in it's favour.  It doesn't make up for the fact that, overall, this is a pretty boring game.

Graphics: 7/10

Probably the strong point of this game are the graphics.  While they aren't super fantastic, they are relatively nice on the eyes.

Sound: Crap/10

The sound in this game is terrible.  I can just picture the pot smoking hippie who composed this music - too lazy to use decent percussion or develop at least one tune that didn't sound like ass.  Sound FX are on par with the music.


 


Run Angels, run!  (This is actually the best part of the game)




This dude took close to 5 minutes just to explode before I could move on to the next level.
