Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
66 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
With lush skies, atmospheric space clouds and galaxies and pretty detaliled enemy design, theres nothing really wrong with the graphics.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
55 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
I found combat system to be refreshing and cool because it gives you a lot of tools to deal with the situation, which means you don't have to just hold the Shoot button and try not to get hit by millions of flying bullet.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
45 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
To summarize, fast paced gameplay with sick OST and lovable twin lolis.
Controls
Players who bring up Controls mostly praise it.
31 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Controller-play is fair enough and allows for all the face & shoulder buttons to be remapped, even though it still does the Button-1-2 thing.
