Rating:
Graphics-7 1/2
If compared to the arcade, it's a 10, but it's the Jag we're comparing it to. Excellent color, Parallax, explosions and textured asteroids.

Sound/music-8 1/2
Excellent score remixed by who else but Imagitec Design. Very good bass on the space levels. All of the 'cade sound effects to go along.

Control-10
Turning and didging stuff is very easily done your ship moves a a perfect speed.

Power-6 1/2 No slowdown at all, even with two players blasting it out. Never a flicker either. Just no special stuff...nothing to give it a boost.

Fun factor-8 1/2
With either one or two players this game is totally fun to play. I wish there were more levels though.

Overall-82%
