Just found out about this 2D shooter, which reminds me a bit of Defender. Here is what Game Informer's Matt has to say:
"I really wish I liked this game. If you have fond memories of old-school side scrolling shooters like Choplifter, you'll get a welcome blast from the past when you boot up SAW. And-- while we're on the subject-- might I say that this is probably the best game name I've seen in years... Jokes aside, I have to say I'm a bit disappointed. I found the control to be fairly aggravating (especially the airplanes), and that the game's nod towards strategy-like "depth" (requiring you capture and defend bases to increase your funds) actually bogged down what should have been an all-out aerial dogfighting. Not that the sticky maneuvering would have allowed for good dogfighting but they could have at least tried. That's all I ask. 6/10"
Anyone played this game? Anyone plan to get it? (release date listed as February 22, developer Neko Entertainment, publisher Atlus)
