Good game bad port

This is a great game however this "port" is awful. The game runs like garbage, it is not even a native port - it is emulation of the arcade version. Sad that it runs better on community emulators than on the official one. Better yet, they could've ported the superior Playstation version instead.

Best of the series

Where else can you shoot giant bugs, zombies, aliens, enemy soldiers, fight underwater, in the sky, fight man-eating plants, ancient Aztec dieties, abominable snowmen, mummies, another enemy soldier faction, more aliens in space, alien clones, alien zombie clones and a giant freaking alien? All while clouds and monkeys fight along side you.

DotEmu strikes again

Finally decided to give this official releases a shot. And, well - it's bad. I mean, it does have better menu, online multiplayer and actual settings compared to MS Collection, which is to clunky for modern pc. But somehow they made it run even worse than on actual emulators, like Final Burn. Slowdowns are abysmal and it seems sound sometimes desyncs. I know that slowdowns are MS's mainstays, but come on, it's worse than playstation releases way back. As for the game itself: by the time last mission was finally over (it's like half the game in length) I was so done with this game. Missions 1 and 2 are pretty cool, then it drops down for 3 and 4, and mission 5 is really cool, but too damn long and hard.
