One Of The Standouts From My Childhood Era Of Arcades
I always remember this game from childhood, but my mom would never give us coins for games ha. We'd have like a dollar in quarters at most, so games like this, you could just get through a few stages and never finish it.

I always remember this game from childhood, but my mom would never give us coins for games ha. We'd have like a dollar in quarters at most, so games like this, you could just get through a few stages and never finish it. Today, now as an adult, I went to a nearby video arcade and finally got to beat it! It was mostly solo because my buddy had to take a call, but then we finished together. It was a surprising amount of fun and worth replaying with Michael or my brothers some time that we go to the arcade. These ratings are based on memory of today, an impromptu playthrough, so they will most likely change on future playthroughs:
Look: 8/10 I love this era of 3d graphics, and if I could dwell on the look more, which is impossible with the constant action, I'd probly grow to appreciate the backgrounds even more!
Sound: 7/10 Okay. Nothing special but fine. Arcade machines sure are loud! Because I was so involved in the game, I wont let this negatively impact the overall score.
Play: 8/10 Fast-paced, well-done, and fun. Eventually your foot gets tired though! And dang does that gun get warm!
Feel: 8/10 Memorable, a standout from childhood and apparently one I can rely on with buddies for a fast-paced, short-enough-to-do-together arcade shooter.
Attachment: 8/10 Indeed, I see myself returning to this with family at the local arcade. Plus I am curious about the PS2 version. At last (I wish I had gotten the score sorry about that, getting used to real arcades ha): 
Completion: Main Story Playtime: ~1 hour
