This is more like the Command and Conquer engine. 2D topographical of your ship flying around completing missions.
If you have played Command and Conquer, you would see the same graphical interface. A single marine fighting an impossible battle against an army of enemies. There is no real difference other than if this game was on PC, it would have better controls than to swing your radar stick around hitting R2 hoping to lock on more than one bad guy and fire your phasers in time before they make your ship glow in the dark than blow off chunks of your hull.
1-10 rating, I give this game a 7 for an excellent play.
