Ok.
This game is ok if you are looking for quirky trademark Japanese non-sensical humor/sexiness. Beyond that, gameplay is just weird (not in a good way, sadly).
It's hard getting used to the hit area of the ship-hottie you control, due to the fact that you see their head and legs, and can't help but to think you'll die if you're hit in those areas, and mess up due to this... at least it is for me... Also, I believe other entries in the parodius series are more worthwhile, like the snes ansd the ps1/saturn entries. Good buy if you intend to look at it as a collector's item though.
