Fantastic rail shooter, i always went back and forth with the arcade version back in the day but I never got around to finish it.

This time around, i'm glad I sat down with the PSX version as its an amazing port and it has an exclusive "special mode" which shouldn't be overlooked, its a whole new scenario with different paths and endings depending on how well you perform, some which can be really challenging and require your reactions to be on point. Big fun.

Loved this at the arcades as well. When I got a PS1 lightgun as a kid, I pretty much played this game exclusively with it. It is pretty awesome how much the special mode was kind of a sequel by itself considering the length and content it had. This, Time Crisis 3 on PS2 and House of the Dead 2 are some of my favorite arcade to console ports.

The special mode is really great, I believe it provides a little bit more context to the sequel Project Titan which I can't wait to get into. (and apparently the canon ending is the one where the villain gets away, so i'm glad that was the last one I got lol)

Yeah it picks up somewhat directly after that ending. Project Titan is pretty neat too!
I played the arcade version cuz I'm cool
