   Vertical schmup by Capcom, with weapon customization via shops between   
   levels. If not for the fact that it's all on rails, the game would   
   resemble Gauntlet Legends in that regard. Or Fantasy Zone on big manly,   
   metal steroids.

   I sorta broke my own rule about buying games that I'll actually play, as   
   I'm trying to own a complete set of US-released Dreamcast games. I do   
   think the SNK ports on Dreamcast are worthy just because of the Atomiswave   
   connections.

   Dune on the Sega CD was just a port of one of the PC games, a menu-driven   
   interactive novel more than anything else. SW:RA is just in hand as a   
   historical artifact, but it's not without its charm.   
      
   -KKC, making plans to head back to the same store, with more money in   
   hand.
