This is the best dual-stick shooter that I have ever played & one of the best games on PlayStation Network.
So what sets SSHD apart from all of the other shooters out there? Not much, to be honest. But that doesn't really matter when the game is so addictive & just so fun to play. Your goal of the game is to shoot asteroids, gain power-ups, destroy enemies, & survive. The longer you go without dying, the higher your score multiplier gets. You can also collect bombs that will help out in a pinch.
Like I said, there isn't much here that hasn't been done before in other shooters. The developers just gave us an extremely polished game combining all of the elements of other shooters. That adds up to be an excellent experience and a really fun game.
SSHD looks great for a downloadable game, especially a shooter. And even the music isn't too bad, which is saying something in these types of games. At the price of $10, this is a great deal if you consider how much re-play value it has just going for high scores or trying to get all of the trophies.
If you own a PS3 and are a fan of shooters, then you should already have this in your game library. It's a no-brainer for most gamers, as this is a great game. If you are still on the fence about giving this a try, let me assure you that you will not be disappointed.
