About

A 3D shoot 'em up by the makers of Gran Turismo and Panzer Dragoon Zwei

What players say

Polyphony Digital's lone non-racing game, a fast 360-degree mecha rail-shooter with Macross-style designs and a graphics engine considered among the PS1's best. A poorly-marketed sleeper hit, fondly remembered as a niche cult favorite that was too short to break out.
