A less-known classic
As you might have read in some of the other reviews, the game isn't without its flaws. The critical hit system is completely random and makes the on-foot missions somewhat frustrating if you're not careful, the A.I. is absolutely brainless (both for the enemies and your companions), and some bugs will occasionally lead to cheap deaths. Honestly, though, my biggest gripe about this game is that it's too short. In the end, though, the most imporant question is that whether it's fun or not. And for me, the answer is most definitely YES. I always found it interesting that the game lets you do stuff any ordinary FPS would consider a mission fail. For example, instead of forcing you to reload a save when you start killing NPCs, it lets you figure out on your own that you either can't progress or you just unknowingly followed a different path in the storyline. And yes, there are multiple endings. The anime aesthetic is definitely unique and blowing stuff up in the middle of a city as a giant mech never gets old. The aforementioned critical hits make the on-foot levels a bit worse but once you learn to play it safe, it's not so bad. These levels are still a treat to play thanks to the satisfying gore and selection of weapons that all feel fun to use and fire with punchy sound effects. And with great sound desing also comes awesome music which is both appropriate for the game's theme and it creates a nice atmosphere. I'll admit that I have a big nostalgia for this game and playing it takes me back to these long nights when I only remembered that I was playing for too long when daylight started pouring into the room. But for any fan of retro shooters, this game will still be a curiosity and I guarantee that you'll have a good time playing it.
