Fun stuff for shooter fans starved for PS2-worthy eye candy, but it doesn't offer anywhere near the degree of excellence we've come to expect from the talented group of people over at Treasure.
-
A quality production that doesn't deserve to be lost in the shuffle, but it lacks the length, revolutionary aspects, and overall appeal and shine to make it a true contender.
-
The game delivers genuinely solid gameplay, which is sure to please those who're seeking nothing more than a visually efficient, effectively designed shooter.

TotalGames.netIt just feels like no effort has been made to make this a killer game this is the type of game that might do well in the arcades but not at home. There isnt even a two-player mode in the game to add any form of variety a criminal act for scrolling shooters.

Those looking for an old-school arcade-style game with a significant boost in graphics and sounds will be satisfied with Silpheed: The Lost Planet. It doesn't disappoint.

While the game is enjoyable enough for a short romp, and the weapon selection offers a bit of replay value, I can't imagine why I would want to play this game in a month, let alone in a year.

Games RadarA good-looking and proficient shooter, but one that is utterly devoid of invention or new ideas.
-
The one thing the game does have going for it is some nice looking cut scenes.
