Brilliant game! People who rant about how much better the WC series is on the PC are right, but it’s still pretty B.A., even on the SNES. The gameplay was right on par with Wing Commander; it would’ve been nice if there had been some aces in there, but the increased interaction during the mission debriefings was a nice bolt from the blue – if you or your wingman did extremely poor (or extremely well) Colonel Halcyon would let you know. All in all, loved it! Now, if I could only get WC2…

After playing Eddy I was hoping there would not be another space shooter that would fail me and bring me pain, but then Wing Commander steps in and makes sure my pain hurts like lemon juice and salt being poured on a cut while getting my nipples twisted by the hulk for every time I don’t laugh at a Bob Saggot joke. Yes, it’s that painful to me. The product descriptor says to get ready for the most intense and exciting shooter action. Conundrum is, there is no excitement and there is not anything intense or awesome about this dreadful game.
WHAT THE GAME IS: You must save the universe, plain and unadorned, the storyline needs no more description. It’s a space shooter, except it has a first-person view… and it sucks. The far superior Starfox had some first-person shooter sequences, and it worked so much better than this, and it was in fact exciting and damn awesome.
GRAPHICS: These graphics look like a mixed bag. Sometimes the game looks like it came from the 8-bit era, and other times it looks like a sub-par 16-bit game. In other words, it sucks.
MUSIC: What is this? It sounds like the music that would come from an arcade game in the 80’s and is not very excellent.
SOUND: Shooting, explosions, irritating alarms that basically indicate a death that wasn’t your fault.
GAMEPLAY: This game eats bag, in fact it eats a doggy bag of vomit and asparagus piss. It is very hard to locate an enemy on the damn screen, and the radar doesn’t help either to make matters worse. Not to mention you have no thought where the hell you’re supposed to go. You barely know where an enemy is and when you desperately search for them, you get bombarded by shots by them and you will most likely die before you can kill them. Oh, and there are barely enemies to see as well, so the game has a barren feel to it on top of the copious other problems this game contains. Oh, and you have a fuel bar you have to pay attention to as well.
OVERALL: TOTAL CRAP!! This game is so dreadful it’s worse than Eddy. This game is an insult to all space shooters and its not even worth a nickel or even deserve to be in a bargain bin. There are hardly any excellent things to speak of this game, as it will only bore you greatly, piss you off with its busted gameplay, and mugger your wallet. Sports meeting of this genre that are in fact recommendable read as follows: Gradius, Panzer Dragoon, Starfox, Colony Wars, Novastorm, R-Type, Star Force, Pleiads, Planet Smashers, Strato Fighter, Geometry Wars, and Space Invaders. There are more than this as well, but avoid this game, it’s not even deserving of any of your cash, a rental, or for that matter a brief stare at the cover.
THE GOOD: The moments when you can kill an enemy, some okay music sequences.
THE BAD: Excellent luck trying to find your opponent or where you’re supposed to go, hideous graphics, busted gameplay, and it’s worse than Eddy.
