5.0 out of 5 stars Rare and excellent shooter for the mac!, October 21, 2003

By	Tom Litwack (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews

I was probably one of the first to buy this game and play the full version, and I must say "wow"! This game is worth much more than just $20.00. Classic shootem up fans will certainly love this game with its full-screen one/two-player shooting frenzy, but there is much more to this game. The awesome sound track, cinematics, and storyline really make this game more than just another shooter. The 3 different character pilots, 5 different chargeable weapons [air and ground], in-game upgrade story to customize and upgrade your ship, and built-in networking support make this the best shooter for the mac i've played yet.

Give this game a shot. There should be a link to download the demo somewhere on the website at www.desoftware.com. You can also find reviews there [whenever they get posted].

5.0 out of 5 stars Sweet Game, October 22, 2003

By	"macgameguru" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews

Sweet game no doubt. The other guy summed up anything I'd have to say. The graphics and orchestrated cinematics are amazing, and the sound track intense. None of this overshadows the gameplay though, which is just almost perfectly executed. Two big thumbs up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Try it, you'll buy it, October 22, 2003

By	"aaron5510" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews

I first saw this game at a different store and downloaded the demo. Two hours later, I was already buying the game. Try the demo, you won't regret it. This is one of the few [and greatest] shooter.
