Welcome citizens of Vizzed! I'm MitsuriZX, and now we're going to delve into the world of arcade games...
a world where anything is possible, everyone is happy and everybody plays to their heart content... and there's nothing more deep
than space itself! It's time for Star Wars Arcade for the Sega 32X!

Unfortunately, my friends Luisa and Lucas are nowhere to be found, but that's not a big deal. Seems like this time i'll be
reviewing alone... in space.

When it comes to graphics, Star Wars Arcade is eye candy. Everything looks nicely detailed, and although the game is slow-paced,
the framerate is actually really good. It reminds-me of Star Wars : Shadows of the Empire for the N64, and that game had some
impressive graphics during the space stages.

The soundtrack is a bit repetitive, and the sound effects are simple, but it delivers the sensation of battling in space in every way possible.
But we are missing the most important part here... the gameplay. So let's get to it.

You have two game modes, the Super 32X mode, which pits you agaisn't the forces of Darth Vader in a never-ending battle between
good and evil, and the Arcade mode, where it tries to re-arrange the game to play as much possible as the original game made for Arcades.

The Super 32X mode is composed of missions, alas, the Arcade mode is also composed of missions, but i have this impression that
the Suoer 32X mode has more missions. Surprisingly, the Arcade mode has two sub-modes that you can choose. The first one is the
real deal, where you put your gamer skills to the test, and the second mode could be called the Easy mode of this game, since enemies seem like they aren't even trying.

The Arcade mode seems much more impressive than the Super 32X mode. They should call that the 32X mode and this the Super Arcade mode instead. The objective overall is to get the highest score you can get. You can also play with two players, one being the pilot
and the other one being the gunner. This makes the game much more teamwork based.

Youy have a fire button, a missile button and a boost button. You can also change the camera to your liking, either from the Cockpit (Whoa, impressive.) or from behind your ship. Staying some time without launching missiles will regenerate them. Also, make sure you
only launch them when you have locked-on to an enemy. The boost button is not the most useful button in the world, but it gets
the job done.

I like the way this game makes you feel like you're in a Star Wars movie. Admiral Ackbar is there, giving you orders, while the ship's systems warn you of any incoming danger. And it helps a lot. In some stages, you are accompanied by other pilots who will give
you support from time to time. All this adds to the realism of the game.

This game might be more entertaining to Star Wars fans, you know, those ones that have watched episode IV, V and VI.
But i still recommend it to all players, because part of a gamer's job is to play new games every now and then.

I know i'm a softie when it comes to giving ratings, but this game really deserves 9. It's no easy feat to port an Arcade game (a 3D one, wow.) and port it to an underrated console such as the Sega 32X. They have guts, that they have. And that's it for my review.

Bye for now, until the next review!

Good review! I love Star Wars Arcade for the 32x, it was the first game I got for the system and a good introduction to the system. I think I am going to read more of your reviews. =)

Wow, this is a really good review. My only complaint is that you didn't do all of the sections, but, still, you did a lovely job on this review. I hope to see more from you!

Good review, but it could do with a slight improvement, such as adding more detail and making the review longer.
