Eh, I read a review at Gamespy and while they aren't that much of an authority I trust them on this one. They said it sucks as bad as Iridion 2. Maybe I should send Shin'en my copy of Ikaruga so they learn how shmups should play. Or give 'em Cho Ren Sha. That's the polar opposite of Iridion 2, fast, hard, fun, simple (as in "only one weapon but it's very useful") and awesome music!
