Viewpoint
Review from the Net
OK, after having played Viewpoint for a couple days this is what I have arrived at. BASICS ------ - Viewpoint is a one player shooter - there is a 3 letter password save feature - Viewpoint has 6 levels GOOD ---- - nice graphics and colors (SGI enemies) - nice beginning intro - music is pretty good - this version is more forgiving than the NEO version - nice SGI cut-scenes between levels BAD --- - only a single player game (should have been 2 player simultaneous) - load times - yeck! - power-ups are far and few - gummy control (ship feels like it's sticking) - the screen jerks at times as it scrolls (herky-jerky) - music delay each time you begin FINAL ----- The improved graphics aren't enough to warrant purchase if you already own the Neo version. I don't think that the control is enough to shoot this title down, but the lack of a two player option comes close. This title is still cool/interesting and has nice touches to it (SGI stuff), but should be rented first. Graphics = 8.5 Music/Sound = 7.5 Game play = 6 Total = 7 - Frank Gemignani
