Game FanSometimes, you just need to blow stuff up. You'll have a hard time finding a better game on the Dreamcast to satisfy those brutal urges than the delightfully cartoony, but fiercely addictive Gunbird 2.
-
Sega XEven the humor and motley crew of heroes and villains makes Gunbird 2 a fun, but short-lived experience.
-
It's fun and replayable -- what more could anyone want?
-
I haven't had this much fun with a game in a long, long time. It may be short, but it offers more challenge in those seven stages than most games do in 20 hours.
-
Other than playing to improve your score and having a friend who wants to play with you, Gunbird 2's replay value is definitely on the short side.
-
The game can be really difficult, but, thankfully, you can choose from seven ratings, ranging from "Very Hard" to "Baby."
-
GunBird's the word, standing out as one of the best finger-crampin' exercises since the Rubik's Cube.
-
A Pile of Shoot. The control is almost flawless. Maneuvering your ship isn't the problem -- the crowded action is the problem.
-
The game is really, really hard, but that's the nature of this genre. I just wish that there were more rewards for my efforts; it feels almost pointless to try so hard.
-
CNET GamecenterBecause Gunbird 2 is such an insanely hard game, casual gaming fans are warned to stay away. Only hard-core fans of the genre need apply.
-
If a good 16-bit shooter is what you're looking for, you could do a lot better elsewhere.
-
We are left with a mediocre title that only keeps shooter fans mildly entertained till we can get our hands on "Gradius III" for the PS2.
-
Too short, too hard and not packed with the replayable goodies one expects a home port to deliver these days.
-
Sometimes the visual assault becomes so chaotic, you may lose track of your on-screen location. Our advice: Fly blind and keep on shooting.
-
Daily RadarAll flash and no substance, Gunbird 2 is too hard, too short and too boring to even bother looking at.

Dec 19, 2019It’s lack of longevity knocks it down a point. A fun and funny shooter. Presented in tate mode (3:4).
