Far better than you'd expect a revival to be, though -- light though it may be on design innovation, it's an extremely slick production in every other aspect.

While the game is enjoyable enough for a short romp, and the weapon selection offers a bit of replay value, I can't imagine why I would want to play this game in a month, let alone in a year.

The graphics are superb. Rather than attempt to hypnotize you with psychedelic patterns of bullets, this game has a slower pace that actually allows you to take in your surroundings, an apparent breakthrough when put up against other recent shooters. The backdrops are luscious and feature textures so detailed that you probably don't have enough rods and cones in your eyes to appreciate them.

A great-looking shoot-em-up game that works amazing on the PS2 console. Both fans of the genre and not will love it.

Matamarcianos aceptable pero muy lejos de competidores de su generación como ikaruga o gradius V. Y por su puesto a años luz del mejor de todos, Radiant silvergun de saturn. Además no es para nada rejugable, no te invita a volver a él.

Full of eye-candy and finger-blistering, non-stop action, Silpheed will please any shooting fan.

With graphics that are a living tribute to the power of modern console gaming and gameplay that is firmly rooted in the simply action-packed arcade games of the past, Silpheed is a very fun, very retro, shooter game.

A quality production that doesn't deserve to be lost in the shuffle, but it lacks the length, revolutionary aspects, and overall appeal and shine to make it a true contender.

The game delivers genuinely solid gameplay, which is sure to please those who're seeking nothing more than a visually efficient, effectively designed shooter.

It just feels like no effort has been made to make this a killer game – this is the type of game that might do well in the arcades but not at home. There isn’t even a two-player mode in the game to add any form of variety – a criminal act for scrolling shooters.

A good-looking and proficient shooter, but one that is utterly devoid of invention or new ideas.
