I found this game irritating as hell, the controls are far to complex and from immediately your weapons aren't powerful enough for the larger enemies... the cruise missles nearly made me punch for the TV!!
I've own the game since it came out and if you're a Starfox fan this is a great game for you it has an awesome concept of a deep space battle with story line elements that favor gundam at the same time I do feel like square enix coulda made a deeper concept behind storyline because they are the company to have to track record for doing that but all in all great game please let me know if you have questions on the game...
@MrArch111 So it's only a review if it's given an arbitrary number? Christ you're thick. He explained what the game was about, then said he liked it. That is most certainly a review.
@Errrrbo Quick to bash aren't you? Anyways I said it wasn't much of a review not it was not a review. Read before you write. The reason why I wrote what I wrote was because about 80% of the video is just a video intro from the game and the rest of the video was just him playing. There are about two or four sentences about the game and those are just I like this genre. Granted his later reviews are better and more in depth than this one. This still is a poor review regardless.
@Errrrbo Look I'm not in a mood for a flame war. My opinion is my opinion. Fact of the matter is that it wasn't much of a review. Now shut up and stop bothering me.
i love it. lol i noticed you really didnt say alot for this one, does it make you speechless or you figured it would be better to show instead of tell?
I really wish I got the older Sylpheed games when I had the chance, I never saw gameplay footage at that time and the older ones look extremely cool. I admit the graphics on this one look fantastic but did they have to make it a free-roaming shooter? Being locked into a dramatic path that interacts with the cool environments was part of the charm of the PS2 and Sega-CD games.
This game does nothing but remind me of how much I love Starfox64, I really wish they would release a new one for all consoles that was just like the one for 64 but with an insane multiplayer.
"we don't get a lot of these types of games over here" - Understatement of the decade! I remember playing Colony Wars for months on the PS1, and I've been wanting to play something like that for a couple of years. For a long time I didn't even know this game existed, tried the demo and loved it. Can't wait to get my copy. Oh and good video btw. XD
For Project Sylpheed 2: better online play, better replay mode, more epic boss fight (say, Ikaruga-like) and bigger laser bolt. It's a shame to see such small laser bolt in a space combat game.
You know what I hate k of realismin games and I am like oh you want it to be realistic so lets say grand theft auto you try to hijack a car and it is locked because you are in a bad neighborhood area then the guy in the car calls the police you are arrested then you have to continue the game in jail for a few years in real time trying to avoid rape and whatnot then you are finally released then you get killed by crashing into someone at full speed with a new stolen car, FU realism.
There are too many DAMN HUD DISPLAYS, ICONS, CROSSHAIRS, LINES, and NUMBERS ON THE DAMN SCREEN!!!!! That's what I hate about many of the new games today. They're too damn busy.
I have seen this game in the game store in my town, haven't seen a reason on why to play it, but now it seems to be like Omega Boost, next time, i'm buying it! :D
And yes it is a shame seems like everyone is stuck in this over and over game style that has become popular over the last 2 years. This game breaks away from that style so much.
On wikipedia it says that most reviewers didn't like the hidden time limits. Well they aren't really hidden and also you just need to practice a be a better pilot to avoid losing to the time limit. This game is also one of those games that is a hard 1000G, but worth getting the 1000G. Extremely underrated I wish they would make a sequel, but apparently the developers that made this closed their doors.
I agree with this guy. Project Sylpheed is an AWSOME game. As a matter of fact, it is one of my favorite games on the 360. Like I have heard others say, this game is WAY underrated.
As an old fan of X-Wing, TIE Fighter, and other free range flying shooters, I like this game. I've only played it for a couple hours, but it is fun, controls are pretty good (once you get used to it) and the graphics are very good. This game makes me wish I had a 52 in plasma.
This game got bad reviews from other sites due to its technical difficulties and some other minor problems, but if you can look past that, this game is hella fun.
Word of advice to new players: DO THE TUTORIAL FIRST!
Itll be a much easier game once you get the controls down.
The story I thought was pretty good considering its a space simulation title. It starts off really boring with "BRANDON" being shot down with like 30 seconds of screen time and the crew gets all emofied but they get over it and it just picks up from there.
So! If you like space sims with anime(ish) styled characters, destruction, and death you go buy it :)
Dude, I just got this in the mail and your right about doing the tutorial.
Great video InecomCompnay, i watched your VID about a week ago and just got the game. I'v only played for about 20 min. but this game is highly underrated so far and I love that so many buttons are needed.
Get any game completely free, i promise this is geuine, all you have to do is check out my profile and what the video to find out how, and by the way i do benefit by doing this, watch the vid to see how and you can get games free to
I bought this game recently used from the bargin bin , so I thought "why not?" after all I do like space shooters, but its soo confusing too many distractions on screen and all those con trails ! omg! I did not find it at all intuitive and gave up pretty quickly, i will give it another try but I am not holding out much hope..
This game is great. One of the main things that caught my eye was the Sylpheed name on the demo. Although it wasn't the best demo, I got the main point and thought I'd love it, so I went on a limb and bought it. Don't regret it. It's like Ace Combat, but in space, and with a crappy beginning story(Need to finish it before I can comment on it all...). I swear, stop grieving about some guy who wasn't very good and got blown up within a minute of the game. Chopper still brings a tear to my eye. :'(
If you like this type of game I encourage you to check out the Original (Yes, the Original as in Classic) Star Fox for the SNES and Star Fox 64 (Yeah, you know what that is for).
they should make this game whit a inside cockpit view, like ace combat style of gameplay, and they need to cut down on the weird stripes and flashy colors and all other fantasy bullshit, then it would be a great space fighting game, only the planets and gas clouds are cool,somebody tell me if such a game exists,
Well said - I've always loved shooting games, flying games - to me this looks awesome, Starfighter (arcade)?Sipheed,Star Fox style goodness! Im certainly going to grab a copy!
I really enjoyed this game, but it's definitely not without its flaw or two. It desperately needed some better mission feedback as far as primary and secondary objectives are concerned.
Still tons of fun though. Sad to see this is such a dead genre though :(.
Project Sylpheed is a real great game but I mean I am a huge fan of the space combat flying types so w/e good game try it out if you like planes and sci fi
yeah i agree, it is sad that us guys that loves these kind of games cant get the here in the U.S. thats cause no many ppl like them as much and the rest of us, thats why they dont even bother selling them here.
This is so "Anime"ish, too bad it didn't use Cell Shaded graphics to reflect Anime, and as a personal preference, would have prefered Japanese Voice Overs. But as alwasy 5 star review ;)
Listen to the review... the game is challenging.... I am playing it.. but I really feel the need of an HDTV

I can't see why game reviewers IGN gave it
such a low rating. Sylpheed looks like
one of the classiest type of the genre.
Space Flight Battle is a classic genre and
should be evaluated on the genre's merits.

I liked Starlancer on the Dreamcast and
Sylpheed is a perfect upgrade for 360!
