Santulli Slant: Wanna see the whole Earth blow up? Although this game seriously suffers from sluggish controls and bad collision-detection (it seems like many of your shots “pass through” the enemy), it’s still fun to watch the carnage. You either win, and get to see that super-cool rumble effect (see also Sub Hunt) as the whole enemy base comes apart, or you get to see a missile fire at the Earth and blow it into tiny bits! Good clean fun, just not as much fun to play as it is to watch. [Gr: 9, So: 9, Ga: 4, Ov: 5]
