even better than the first. a few shortfallings, and the inability to put up elemental defences imediately like in the original is annoying, but it still warrants s 5 star rating, for all the ways it improved upon an already spectacular game.
quite fun. it was a challange, but not an incredible one. still not sure what stratagy I used, saved that capturing the larger circles was vital. congrats again. 5/5.
the priority system MUST be changed. all my cannons focus on the big ships that barely do anything, while about fifty smaller ships destroy everything I have. perhaps the ability to tell your canons what is a more important target? seriously, I am tired of losing on armageden simply because my cannons can't think!
ah, an old favorite. its amazing and lacks only 2 major qualities. first, the ability to pick a riff without cycling, and second, removing the various idiocies placed around the interface.
I give it a 4/5. it has very high potential, but its lack of hard rock guitars, many things being to high for my liking, and being unable to place 2 short notes closer to eahcother than 2 longer notes are major drawbacks.
that, and some of the included songs are poorly done.
this is sad. the songs aren't as good as the previous games. worse yet is the highly unbalanced difficulty. some people are still casual gamers and until now this would apeal to them. such a move can cost you a large amount of fans. I'm not against difficult songs, but I am against exclusivly difficult songs. added to that, it is difficult more me and others to adjust to the 4 key spread because it plays the opposite way I would expect.
all in all, I say this is a failure to the series, but a good bit of game if taken as a seperate, or if you are very VERY good.
