Darius Plus -- NEC Avenue/Taito

R.I.P.
Stunning! In nearly all respects, this is a perfect translation of the arcade shooter Darius. The only thing this version is lacking is the three screen wide area of play. Power-ups, bonuses, enemy flight patterns. Wow! I can't praise this title enough. Another great feature of this game is that it will play on a standard PC-Engine as well, although the graphics are quite flickery when you do so. Seriously, if you are a shooter fan, or you enjoyed this game in the arcade anywhere as much as I did, you owe it to yourself to track down this baby today.
