Editorial Reviews:
Hudson brought back its shooting classic Star Soldier back to life on the PSP. Similar to the recent PS2 and GameCube remakes, the PSP title features fully polygonal graphics. A few new features are being prepared for the PSP. Your main means of fire has been set to auto on the PSP, meaning you won't have to keep on pressing the fire button in order to strike your opponents. The system's 16x9 display will be used to display the action like a vertical arcade shooter, as along as you're willing to rotate your PSP 90 degrees in order to play, of course. The PSP version includes a national ranking mode. Clear the game, and you'll get a password which can be input at the official Star Soldier site (via your computer, not your PSP) in order to get yourself placed.

Customer Rating: Summary: Really Cool Comment: Even though this is the Japanese version, the only part that's not in english is the text that tells you to flip your psp sideways (like you couldn't figure it out when the screen turns 90 degrees). This game is completely awesome. It forces you to play sideways, but thats what makes it great. I've never played any other version of this, but this feels like you're playing in the arcade. It's not too challenging - you'll probably master even hard mode after playing for a few hours, but the replay value is amazing, because you'll always try for a better score.
There's some bonus stuff too: you unlock boss mode and level select mode (there's a third that I haven't unlocked yet). I've played every psp game out so far, and I think this is the only game worth buying (until GTA comes out).
