Star Soldier is very reminiscient of older scroll side-to-side games but once you've experienced the graphics and the newer style of play (ex: StarFox) it is somewhat antiquated. The levels of difficulty are easy to navigate but the variety of scenery and the gameplay is very oldschool and plays itself out quickly. Overall I would recommend it for those who want to play the old style but I wouldn't rate it better than the StarFox series or other flying games to date.

Star Soldier is the N64 reincarnation of the NES classic. I, for one, miss the SNES days of top and side-scrolling space shooters (Gradius, etc.). So for me, this game was an excellent find. Star Soldier gives you your choice of 3 extremely powerful ships, then lets you out into a vast array of different worlds, with the ultimate goal being to destroy the sinister Duoss Core. You can collect powerups for your main weapon, as well as powerful "ExArms" items which give you a short period of absolute annihilation. There are several different modes, including a timed mode where you try to get the most hits within the given time period. If the game proves too difficult, simply tone down the difficulty a bit until you are ready. Overall, gamers looking for a little nostalgia in the highly advanced N64 world should be most pleased with Star Soldier.

This game is excellent. The gameplay and graphics is great. This game is way better than Star Fox. Each stage has a unique master that is pretty difficult. In my eyes this game is the best game I've ever played.
