for some reason they only made like 26-28 copies of the n64 star soldier lucky i happen to have one its pretty fun :D i forgot where i heard that i think it was G4
You pretty much end up playing 10 games of the 5 minute mode and then maybe 5 more of the 2 minute mode, etc. There is no "whole game" to speak of, but it's kind of like a entire game crammed into 5 minutes. You have to be into figuring out how to score higher, I guess.
I used to be the 25th best player in Canada but some time in the last few months someone has apparently taken my place and thus I am not #26. That's going to change soon though, I swear it!
The game costs $8. I got it yesterday and it is good! Very addictive. It's more intense than it looks! I'll bet a lot of people don't buy it though, because of that warning when you go to download it.
I'm not sure if it specifically said "warning" or not, but it has a screen that says something like "this game only consists of a two minute and five minute mode". It just kind of makes you want to back out of the transaction, since no other game has precautionary things right before you buy them.
just because its a birds eye view scroller game doesnt mean its bad. thats a pretty bad assumption, its like saying a game EXACTLY like super mario is bad just because its made like an old 2D sidescroller. if u played either of the old star soldier games u realize why this one was made. star soldier vanishing earth on the 64 was fucking awesome and id still play it today
I just saw this game and I have 1000 points left. I'm stuck between buying this gyrostarr, star soldier r, and prothea. Which one should I get. They all look so similar so I need some advice from someone who has played one of them. Are any of the any good? Need advice/please respond. Thanks.
Let me get this straight about the orbs - When can you get them to attack rly strongly? and whats the benefit of returning them to your body? do they actually block bullets or somethin?
Do you think this game is worth 800 pts or should I get a different game. Is it any fun or is it boring. Do the level keep repeating with the same sequence of things to shoot. It look repetitive and all you have to do is shoot and move up, down left, and right. Plz tell me what you think on this game! Thanks.
The faster you are, the more destruction you can do. The more destruction you can do, the more points you can get. Also, the blast from changing speeds causes damage as well, so that could be abused for scoring opportunities (such as when you're inside the ring enemy).
Manual mode doesn't affect scoring. It just kills your fingers.
do you can play online with a friend together? at the same time? (as example: left my friend and right I?) sry for my bad english i came from germany!
May 12th in japan, maybe. But not over here. We got LostWinds, FF:MLAAK, Pop, Defend your castle, some TV trivia thing, & blackjack. Oh well, maybe soon, I hope...
I used to want this game until I found out that there are only two levels. Im really not sure if its worth the 8 bucks when i could get a longer game like Lords of thunder or axelay for the same price. Im going to get one of the three games but i cant decide which one.
No...theres only the 2 minute and 5 minute modes. That Game Start bar is just left over from the first time you press A on it. Just showing what menu you're currently viewing.
I don't think i'm going to get it. Each round you play only lasts at a maximum of 5 minutes and i'm pretty sure people would want to play more than that.
OMG this game is going to be awesome. I am glad that games of this style and nature don't have to die out and finally have a home on the WiiWare for Nintendo fans.
You're kidding right? People play shoot em ups all the time. It doesnt have to be a game in the arcade to be great. Look at Ikaruga, Gradius V, or R-type Final. Thats just like asking why people still play Fighting games. And no it doesnt suck.
haha. i know what you mean, but think about it, the next generation of video game players is gonna wonder why your friends still download multiplayer FPS games. Some kinds of fun just don't get old.
Looks cool, but I don't see myself playing it in the long run. It's awesome it has leaderboards so you can at least share your score with others but that isn't my cup of tea.
I just don't get why they didn't make a full game with mutiple bosses. I'd prefer that than a 2 or 5 minute modes.

Star Soldier is a pretty common N64 game. You can find it just about anywhere for $10.

Does the speed setting of your ship or whether or not the setting is on manual or auto have anything to do with your scoring?

The faster you are, the more destruction you can do. The more destruction you can do, the more points you can get. Also, the blast from changing speeds causes damage as well, so that could be abused for scoring opportunities (such as when you're inside the ring enemy).
