    Too Fast Paced And Too Challenging to be any real fun.

    By 4EverGreen | Review Date: Apr 30, 2022 | GEN

    One of the biggest problems that Sega seems to have when it comes to making video games, all seems to come down to pacing. That is; how fast the game seems to operate in relation to the video game player who is playing i... Read Full Review

    Space Harrier 2 doesn't break any boundaries, and only ends up being a marginal cookie-cutter of the original game.

    By Asagea_888 | Review Date: Dec 09, 2009 | GEN

    Space Harrier was quite the trip when I played it in the arcades. It was a vomit-inducing, heart-pounding 3D shooter that pulled no punches and showed no mercy. It even made me cry. Four times. My own personal memori... Read Full Review

    Childhood Nostalgia

    By ACiDBuRn2k4 | Review Date: Jun 01, 2007 | GEN

    Space Harrier II was the 2nd game I've owned for the Sega Genesis back when I was a Wii little lad at the age of 10 (1993). My mom couldnt really afford to get me any games. I actually got this game passed down from on... Read Full Review

    Same Classic Formula

    By samsonite33 | Review Date: Mar 18, 2007 | GEN

    I love the original Space Harrier on the Master System, but my machine barely turns on anymore, so I though I'd invest in a virtual copy of the sequel for my Wii. Regarding gameplay, Space Harrier 2 is virtually identica... Read Full Review

    space harrier 2 deserves to burn in hell

    By re_G | Review Date: Feb 27, 2007 | GEN

    the fact alone that people have givin it a good rating means that there is no god. Some other facts are that the whole sound track consists of 3 differant sounds played in a differant order depending on what level you ar... Read Full Review

    Space Harrier is a sample of the first batch of Genesis games, but it still has a very specific feel to it.

    By noelveiga | Review Date: Dec 27, 2006 | GEN

    When I first got my Genesis, Space Harrier II was one of the few games you could easily find everywhere for sale. Back then, games were sold in small quantities by appliances and electronic stores and you couldn't always... Read Full Review

    Alienocide

    By macacd | Review Date: Aug 18, 2006 | GEN

    It's the far future - the year is 6236 to be exact - and the 214th sector is under attack from hordes of alien creepies. Being the sort of guy that revels in a little alienocide, you grab a jet pack and the latest death ... Read Full Review
