Advantages: Good Graphics

Disadvantages: No exitement of feel to the game.

Nearly everything behind the concept of Slave Zero says "cool," but not quite as loud as the implementation screams "rushed." This game is a mess, gang, so much so that I'm not even sure where to start.

Go somewhere and take a look at a screenshot of slave zero, looks good doesnt it?? Well its a pity that thats about as fast as it runs on ure Dreamcast.

People play action games because they want some excitement, some intensity. No, check that. They don't want "some" action, they want a lot of it!!

Slave Zero's first and most evident gameplay pitfal would have to be its utter disregard for this primary principle of gaming logic. A good 50% of the game, you're just sort of walking around, shooting enemies who act as if they aren't too sure of what you intend to do with that fancy shcmancy rail gun of yours, and because of this, the experience just feels empty.

To make matters worse, there is the occasional mission, such as the escorting of the convoy deep inside the sewers, that makes you know that someone on the design team knows what he's doing. Enemies come at you from nearly every conceivable angle, and between taking them out and keeping up with your boat-bound buddies, you really get the sense of urgency, and are kept on the edge of your seat. The sad thing is, however, that this sort of action is anything but a regular occurrence
