    I find that Soldner X2 to be one of my favorite horizontal shooters ever made. This just might give Gradius V (my favorite horizontal shooter) a run for its money, well worth the price of admission.

    Sure, it's a little bit easy / forgiving but there's a lot of challenge in the stuff you unlock once you "finish" it. This is every bit worthy of a place in any discerning Shmup gamer's collection.

    Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype is arguably more fun than the average sidescrolling shooter, but this is still a niche genre.

    The vibrant graphics take full advantage of the PlayStation 3's power, and while it might not be aimed at the right demographic, there's still a good deal of fun to be had.

    Like Craig David covering Marvin Gaye, Söldner X-2 makes you pine for the real deal.

    La replay value est importante, avec ses challenges et ses clés à trouver.
    La difficulté est bien dosée, et il est très beau !
    La musique électro colle bien au jeu, et l’expérience seul comme en co-op locale à deux est super !
    Pour ma part, ce fût une excellente trouvaille, et je reviens régulièrement dessus, même 6 ans plus tard ... :)
    A recommander aux amateurs du genre !    … Expand

It's a little better than the original, but doesn't really address any of its flaws adequately. Again, good but not great.… Expand
