Subject: Thunder Force VI
Over on insertcredit a forum member named FortNinety has given his capsule review of Thunder Force VI. It isn't exactly loaded with praise, but it's not entirely damning either. I gotta say, considering there's no domain for it (the official site is thunderforce.sega.jp), my expectations were low.

ThunderForce has always been a bit of a hit or miss affair for me. Unlike several other Tecnosoft games (Elemental Master, Herzog Zwei) the TF series always seemed to want more from me than I could give. It was too hard, especially part IV, which I could never seem to master. Instead I loved the series for the graphics and sound - the soundtrack for the entire Thunder Force series was exceptional, and the original chiptunes, remixes and remakes are a staple of my game-tune listenin's.
Sad news then that part VI eschewed the old composer too. Ah well, the old days were best anyway. =)
Quote by FortNinety:I've been playing it. Long story short... don't bother unless you are a diehard Thunder Force fan. But seeing as I am, I've been enjoying it, though not as much as I had hoped to.
