PERSONAL BEST: 140,600pts (Blue label version)

Man, this is a depressing game. It doesn't help that you have to save the last remaining human family(and fail since you can only get a game over at this arcade), doomed to extinction, but it's also so hyper, so brain-twisting, so brutal, with exploding noises and flashes everywhere it makes you weary of this robotic bloodshed and just want to give up. What is your cause? What are you fighting for? Violence is not the answer. Only despair is left.

As an action game though it's a treaded formula(Berzerk did this style of gameplay earlier) but the idea of providing a twin stick action is a revolutionary one and it provides immediacy.
