    There are challenging arcade games; there are brutally difficult arcade games; and then there's Alpha Mission. This game feels as though it was designed to make money through being virtually unbeatable.

This game feels as though it was designed to make money through being virtually unbeatable. It's basically a clone of Xevious -- which wasn't very good to begin with -- but features anti-power-ups that send you back to the beginning; an entirely obtuse and unexplained item system; and bosses that fire multiple heat-seeking missiles at you which are nearly impossible to dodge.
