PREMISE:          Sequel to one of the most popular side-scroll shooters
                  to hit the arcades.  The Darius team investigates an
                  SOS from a mysterious solar system and wind up battling
                  an old enemy.  Ported from the arcade game.

IMPRESSIONS:      This is one of the best R-Type clones ever made, and the
                  only version available for the Genesis.  The graphics are
                  a bit grainy and dated, but gameplay is frantic even when
                  two are sharing the fun.  A simple yet addictive game,
                  and a must for shooter fans.
