One of the few non-fmv games with streaming content.

Unfortunately, it's as poorly optimized for sprites as other NEC AVE CPS1 ports, such as Forgotten Worlds and Strider.

I haven't tried Forgotten Worlds or Strider.  But I certainly think they could have done a bit better with this port.

Gameplay is alright and despite the small sprites there is a lot of sprite flicker but personally I think the worst kicker is that stuttering during the in-game loading it sure is distracting.
Strider's poop, but Forgotten Worlds is really good!  No 2 player or scrolling, but the sprites blow away  the genesis/md version and is fairly close to the arcade.  Not 1:1, but a hell of a lot better.  Not to mention the extra levels.  Some might rather have fewer levels and 2 player, but I'd rather have more levels.
