I had the original on Atari ST years back and loved it. Strategy and action in one package. Adding story might just make it better. The old game looked hookie too but if that's all you care about you can skip this one (and no big loss).
One of those games that creates a universe. Some just do things for narrative conveinience but this game made a structure that made sense. Can't wait to paddle in this pool again.
Jetpacks are still cool. They have a way to go yet but I think it's only a matter of time. The army will get them first (USA or China) but it will happen.
Awesome first series Cam! I look forward to the next one keenly.
I recently got wonderboy in monster world on xbla for a bit of nostalgia, man that game is filled with cheap deaths. In this case it's a throw back to the arcade, as the game was designed as a coin gobbler. I also rage at C or higher level fighters on SFxTK using assist gems. Just plain cheating imho.
