Yes, thats right I shall be reviewing Galerians for the ps1, why? because I can. ;D
Lets start with the good, the best part of Galerians is the story, young Rion Stiener finds himself being tested on in michelangelo city memorial hospital, he can't remember anything about himself, being guided by a voice in his head beging for his help Rion escapes the hospital with only some pictures of his parents and his name. Another cool thing about the game is the psychic abilities Rion gains from the drugs he was given at the hospital, NALCON unleashes shockwaves of psychic engery at enemies, RED(my personal favorite) unleashes the pyromaniac in people alowing Rion to set his enemies on fire, D-FELON lets Rion move his enemies into the air then smash them back down to earth.
Now lets look at the bad.... the voice acting is horrible! who ever thought it was a good idea to make Rion sound like a boy scout should be killed painfully..... of course the graphics arn't very good either. Moving can be diffacoult, even those who are used to that type of controls it can be very touchy when your trying to run away from bigger enemies, the rest of the controls however are pretty good. then there are the load screens, there is a load screen every time you walk through a door, it's not even a cool looking load screen, plus the pouses every time the camra moves to a different angle can get very anoying after awhile...did I mention the voice acting? either way if you are a fan of the story you'll probably like the game but if you'er not...you might not like the game. but then you can always just get the movie Galerians Rion which not only looks alot better but has much better voice acting and a alternate soundtrack put together for the airing on MTV which has song's by ADEMA and GOD HAED(or hand, can't remember which...).
score: three out of five
