With incredible value this is the best gradius release so far, and long time U.S gradius fan's dream come true
What a great value title for any psp owner that is even slightly interested in 2d classic shooters. From what I remember enjoying these games in the arcades many years ago I am pretty sure that these are the direct faithful arcade roms/ports. Besides them being direct faithful arcade ports these games were also previously released as follows: Gradius 1 and 2 that are on this compilation were released both on a single disc called "Gradius Deluxe Pack" on the ps1 many years ago, sadly it was a japan only release. Gradius Gaiden that is on this compilation was also released on ps1 many years ago, sadly it was also a japan only release. Gradius 3 and 4 that are on this compilation were released both on a single disc on the ps2 called "Gradius III & IV", fortunately it was also released in the us this time. These games hold up pretty well even today especially Gradius Gaiden. I have been a big Gradius fan since I first got the chance to play Gradius in the arcades many years ago, and Gradius Gaiden alone is worth the purchase of this wonderful compilation for your psp, not to say that Gradius 1-4 are bad because they are also definitely worth it also. I am glad that Konami decided to make this wonderfully thought out compilation officially available stateside, it would have also been great if this game compilation had seen a ps2 release but I am thankful nonetheless that it was released on the psp at least. Once you pop Gradius collection in your psp you'll know why this game has incredible value and is hard to put down. Of course this game is hard as nails most of the time but it is a good type of hard difficulty, and besides how would it be a "real" game without some difficulty to it. I would suggest this to people that are looking for a good challenge and gameplay and/or have never even played a Gradius game before and would like to see what a 2d shooter is all about, though most casual gamers might not like this there is a good chance that some casual gamers will and this game is definitely worth it if someone is looking to improve their video game skill, although I also own Gradius 5 for ps2 which is a lot harder(in a good way) than any of the Gradius games on this compilation these games are still hard as nails and just as addicting as Gradius 5 for ps2. For me purchasing this particular game compilation once I found out about it was a no brainer and would be for anyone else that has been playing video games for a long time. This is definitely worth the purchase for anyone interested in 2d shooters, I guarantee it.
