I MUST get one >!!!! It looks nothing like the 64 version. Totaly new graphics. Robots do not have numbers no more. they all look different and when at a computer terminal you can get an INFO sheet on them. The wire battle is EXACTLY the same. The way the robots fire is different for each robot. Ie one has a machine gun, flame througher etc. There are many ships as well. (if you can get past the first one.) The only Fault I see in it is that the Good old , run through ship shooting everythink you come across is NOW to hard to do. The best way to kill the big robots is to run at them, getting your arse shot off, and attempting a transfer. This TAKES to long for a game that you cannot save games. Also transfering is some times a dice roll. Conclusion: Its Too BLOODY hard. Much harder then the 64 version. Hunter -- James Gardiner.
