Wow, They made a game with no free roam, with a kind of old school feel, and it really works!!!
THE GOOD
This game doesn't use the new age grand theft auto mission styles. It use's a go here and do this mission then move on to the next sort of concept, with this kind of old school approach, the game is still very addicting! They use a simple method of picking up various power-ups, along with load's of bad enemy's to make just an all around fun shooter game. I don't know how but the story line is there but it doesn't really matter, but in this case that's not even really a bad thing! The game has a lot of things you can pick up to wipe out enemies faster, which is just a plus. The game also incorporates a point system which just makes the game that much better, you can link together combo's of kills to score huge amounts of points! There's side missions also, which are optional, all though these are usually rather hard to figure out, they hone your skills!
THE BAD
This game is pretty hard, There were times I found myself very frustrated with a lot of the levels. Sometimes you just have to keep playing a level over and over until you get lucky and get just the right amount of health pick-ups and power-ups, so in that matter, the game's A.I. is definitely pretty stupid. The graphics arn't the BEST, they sometimes seem sort of blotchy, and bland. This game also isn't too long, I mean In my case with how much I died, It made the game-play a lot longer. With the missions alone though the game probably wouldn't give off more than 5 to 7 hours game-play.
OVER-ALL
All though it has some short comings the game still just comes out very fun! Somehow it takes problems that ruins some games, and still overcomes them with good game-play.
