Thexder 95
Fans of the original Thexder will be delighted by sharp SVGA graphics, excellent multiplayer support (modem, IPX, and TCP/IP), and a very good interface that lets you see the level map, enemy status, weapon selection, and available equipment at all times - via small display windows that surround the main screen. Digital speech and MIDI music are nicely done, although the cutscenes (missing from this CD-rip download) and animations could be much better. If you enjoyed the 1987 original and/or its sequel, you will have a lot of fun with this modern version. If you have never played the original, this version ranks as one of the better platformers you will come across. It is neither as fun nor as smooth as, say, Abuse, but it is still very enjoyable. Two thumbs up!
