Starblade PS1 version obtained

Man, what happened to the 32-bit versions? Why is the arcade version better to play? Well, let's see the flaws.

1. Additional bullshit coming out of nowhere: While additional voice clips are added which make it a nice move, what the hell is up with those sound effects coming out of nowhere? How could they take the clip from some superplay video from the Starblade laserdisc and then put it in the game? Can't they put in those voice clips without putting anything else?
2. Boss Self-Destruction: You can't believe that Namco has turned this arcade game into an FMV game for the 32-bit version probably due to the fact that the entire graphics are put into the video. It's fine to make things choppy but you know what's really wrong with this move? During boss battles, there's no way to take short time or longer time to destroy the bosses such as the power source of the Octopus weapon and Iceberg Control Center as well as the enemy flagship commander. Instead, they're parts of the FMV and the time for boss destruction comes in after how exactly long the time for boss battles takes.
3. Firing input is awful: You're better off playing this in the arcades, PS2 as part of Tekken 5 or the Wii. Even if you turn on the rapid fire cheat, it doesn't help out in destroying as many enemies as you want for survival. There may be a workaround in using the mouse or Playstation flight stick for better movements but it cannot be same for immediate input response in firing at the enemies.
4. Awful collision between your lasers and enemies: This flaw and the previous one when combined will take up beyond a few credits you're given. It's kind of difficult to destroy the enemies that take up several hits, the enemies you want to reach, the enemies that are parts of the environments and the amount of projectiles that are thrown at you.

There's the Mega CD version of the game which is better than the 32-bit versions and the past version you could buy instead although it still uses FMV sequences but in a better way. Other than those, you're better off playing this on the PS2, Wii, the arcades and mobile via a discontinued compilation app. From what I saw from the Wii version, you can use the Wii remote as moving the flight stick.
