Pretty naff. The only one of the infamous Capcom Five that actually stayed on the GameCube, and I'm not surprised as to why. The art style is slick, VERY much leaning on the Y2K side of things, and it has a similar sort of control scheme to Resident Evil 4 in a sense - you can't move while shooting.

However, what makes this game so frustrating is a few things: firstly, the lack of checkpoints coupled with enemies that can kill you in two (or even just one) hit means you'll be replaying the same parts over and over again.

Secondly, there's an interesting combo system where you have to kill enemies in a chain within a time limit to get points, which you can exchange for upgraded suits. However, given the control scheme, this is easier said than done.

It's simply too frustrating to warrant trying to see its short runtime through.
