Amazon.com Product Description:
Taking the '80s art of 2-D space shooters and melding it with 21st-century technology, Mars Matrix fills the screen with intricate backgrounds, dozens of independently moving objects, and intense arcade action. Your tools in dealing with an onslaught of bullets from all directions are a fairly standard laser gun, a powerful pulse weapon, and a special attack that can allow your spacecraft to inhale incoming fire and return it in a fierce volley. Old-schoolers will be pleased to know they can recover the spoils of defeated enemies in power-up form, and go to a weapons shop where they can upgrade their rigs.

Rating:  - A classic 2D shooter with smooth graphics and visuals
Heres one you can't pass up, this is a great shooter with beautiful and smooth graphics, the game play is just as smooth to boot and lets not forget the challenge it brings, even on easy level, this game is difficult, the graphics are so smooth that at times the screen gets filled with bullets and laser blasts that if your not paying attention, you can lose site of your ship.
This great shoot'em up game scrolls from top to bottom, just like another classic shooter made for the genesis ... Read More
Rating: - Not beautiful, but loads of fun
I wish to make it very clear that if you are a slave to crisp, clean, detailed graphics and care nothing for the gameplay then you should not get this game. If you know a good game when it jumps in your face and don't care if it has less than beautiful graphics (and you like Galaga like vertical shooters) then you should do whatever possible to get this game.
This game is very fast paced. The ememies come at you pretty quickly, and their bullets can leave you with very little room to move. ... Read More
Rating:  - An ugly, but good arcade shooter.
If you like the type of arcade shooters that fill the screen up with bullets and are impossibly hard, you'll probably like Mars Matrix a lot.I don't think it's quite on the level of the games made by Cave, like DoDonPachi, ESP, or Guwange, but it plays very smoothly.The graphics are more than a bit of a throwback though.The pixels seem big, and the special effects are unimpressive to say the least.Mars Matrix is fun, but it is not a cutting edge shooter.If you are into these types of games, you ...

Rating: - 2-D Shooter fans rejoice!
Who says this genre is dying? Mars Matrix is really one of the best shooters I've played in I don't even know how long. Perhaps not since Raiden have I had this much fun with a shooter. Yes, it really is THAT good. The price has no reflection on the quality of the game... it just makes it that much better of a purchase! Get this game on Amazon as SOON as it comes in... another AAA game for the Dreamcast!
Here's how I'd rate it...
GRAPHICS: 90% (hooray for pixels!) SOUND: 70% (sorry, ... Read More
Rating: - If you loved Galaga, Xevious, Truxton, Raiden....
You will LOVE this game.It's really wonderful,with great and inventive play mechanics and a "shop" mode that honestly doubles your enjoyment of the game.It also posesses the one feature that matters most - PROPER PACING.This game doesn't start off impossible and get harder like most shooters (which is WHY the shooter is dying in the first place),rather it slowly builds and gives you a chance to get to know the various enemies and formulate strategies on the fly.It's a great, great game and a steal ...
