  An unbloated action game, one of the few remakes that improves on it's original in every way, I always enjoy revisiting this. Can be beaten in ~12 hours, but I took my time to find all the hidden loot and upgrades, pushing my runtime to 15 or so. Some bosses are a pain in the ass even on lower difficulties, and the PS5 version played has an incredibly grating audio bug with one encounter that rendered a sound effect far too loud. Not the prettiest game, but I have a real soft spot for this era of Falcom's graphics with prerendered objects and low fidelity backgrounds.

  Thrilling. Incredibly fun combat flight game, a slightly loony near alternate-universe Sci-fi story (set in then-present 2019), great soundtrack. The plot held my attention, but I did struggle to follow the geopolitics told via hammy comm chatter and interspersed news broadcasts, no matter. Communication discipline does not exist (not a negative, just funny). Features some of the latest and greatest planes from all around the real world, coupled with an eye-poppingly interesting trademark screen. Strong recommendation.
