Reviews

Project Sylpheed Arc of Deception is rated 4.3 out of 5 by 10.

Rated 4 out of 5 by sgt0429 from Very underrated I'd never heard of this game until about a year ago but it looked decent and it was cheap so I got a copy, and wow! The story isn't the best thing I've seen but everything about the gameplay was great. Not a very long game, which is my main complaint with it, but other than that is easily in my top 10 games, and the only one in that top 10 that can be found for under $50. I'm only giving it a 9 because it's not perfect, and I have played better games with all the amazing gameplay of this one and a way better storyline, too.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Chaos396 from Time-Wasting at its Best Project Sylpheed is the kind of game you play when you just want to have a good time. It was made in the vain of old arcade flight simulators, and the fun from those games transfers nicely into this. The gameplay is easy to understand and fun to exercise. You are an ace pilot, and it's your job to lead the assault against enemies that would like nothing better than to blow you and your army into oblivion. In the game there are a multitude of weapons you can use to upgrade your fighter, giving it the advantage against even the largest of warships. There is a bit of strategy behind the weapons you can equip, which ones work best with the others you have and what can most effectively beat the opposition ahead of you, but if you don't want to do that you can just use the auto-weapon select and get the best weapons for what you need to do. There's also a way to command your squad with the D-pad, but really you should always tell them to break away and do their own thing, otherwise they'll just get in your way as you brutally massacre your enemies. And let me tell you, in the bigger fights of the game, the battle is an absolute marvel to watch with all the color and explosions. Occasionally with so much on screen you'll get some slow-down, but I rarely got any so it shouldn't be a problem. Now this is a Square Enix game so naturally it's designed in an anime style, poor lip-synching and all, but it certainly looks nice. It also has a pretty clichéd anime storyline, but it wasn't cringe-worthy and it never detracted anything from the actual gameplay. My only real complaint about the gameplay itself is that in almost every mission you have to protect one or more of your own warships, and while most of the time they stay well enough away from the battle (which can be kind of annoying when you need to refill your ammo), but sometimes they are right in the middle of it and will be destroyed if you aren't very, VERY careful. Oh, and there's this weird thing where randomly you will get a three-minute time limit to finish the mission while you're in the middle of it. That's incredibly annoying, but if you're playing well it shouldn't present too much of a problem. But still this game is very fun, and if you like flight-fighters or anything similar I would very much recommend it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by USArevenge from worth the price. For those looking for a game to pass by some time this is perfect for sci-fi or anime lovers. its a space flight arcade style game where you defend your team and destroy enemy fighters and capital ships. the story is ok at best. its too short to develop character relationships. the flight is hard to get used to but its fun. there are only about 16 missions, which is unfortunate. no multiplayer. I got this game used for $4, worth every penny, i would say it takes about 30 minutes per mission, and I plan on getting every achievement which means you basically have to beat the game about 16 times what's sad is, with a little love this could have been an amazing tactical game, but instead, you fly a fighter that can 1-2 hit large capital ships if your good. there is a demo on xbox live, its much harder then any mission in the full game, so play it learn to fly and find the game on the cheap and pick it up to have something to do every so often.

Rated 4 out of 5 by BriankLizard93 from Great game that was overlooked by many. I have never been a fan of flight-sims. There are only a few "flying" games that I play and enjoy. Many flight-sims bore me, largely in part due to the fact that most only involve a few enemies at a time, broad/open landscapes, and dull conversations. Project Sylpheed, however, is a different story. If you know anything about Square Enix, then you know that their games often have an anime-ish style and a pretty-in-depth story. This holds true for PS, which is a good thing. The style and story are what make this game unique. Where most flight-sims have dull, army-style missions, PS has unique missions that involve different tasks. Sometimes you'll have to eliminate enemies who are about to ambush someone, sometimes you have to destroy huge missiles before hitting key ships in the fleet- it all varies, which keeps it fresh. There is also a DLC pack available online (it is free) which adds new missions, and a few other things as well. The controls flow very well, and are easy to get the hang of, but hard to master. The battles are intense, and often involve MANY enemies onscreen at one time. Combine this with multiple explosions, guns firing, ship exhausts, and beautiful space/planet areas and you get a gorgeous, intense, memorable battle. All-in-all, a great game for a great price. Definitely purchase this game. You will not regret it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by cyberkriest from Fun game if you like space flight games. The game is pretty fun and has good lasting appeal. It doesnt take long to beat but its pretty hard to get a perfect score. Graphics could be better and they could have added more content though. I hope they make another one with those things improved.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Vinnie83 from Great space flight game!!!! I had been looking for a great space flight game. This game handles extremely well. I'm not sure why someone thought it was an rpg but it is far from in my book. The storyline is cheesy at times but I was only in it for the gameplay. You can choose the weapons on your ship to best suit the situation which was fun. The graphics and sound quality made the space combat a blast. The ship has the actual physics that a space fighter realistically would. I strongly recommmend this to anyone who is looking for a good space flight game!

Rated 5 out of 5 by happycustomer from Great game, just, should have gotten way more attention I have to say when i got this game i was like a one time game, thats it. well iv had it for 6 months, still playing it so i was completely wrong. this is such a great game and its really a shame that not to many people picked up on this game. now, the graphics have to be some of the best iv ever seen, EVER, and im not just talking about one or a couple of the cut-scenes or all of the cut-scenes, the whole game. this game is one of the few games that give a good challenge without getting really annoying and making u beating up ur controller in frustration, no its a game that gives a good challenge without being stupid. the game is also very long with very long missions, so if and when u buy this game, make sure u have plenty of time to spend playing this game. the missions are like 40 minutes if u do none of the side quests in the level, and if u do.... ull be there awhile. the storyline is great and i really hope there is a squeal because there just needs to be because that would really make a lot of fans happy (including myself and all my friends that have a 360). the controls are perfect and once u learn them (it really doesnt take very long at all) ull be an ace flyer in no time. interface i cant even discribe it was that good. special affects and sound were as good as the graphics so they were great. all in all this has to be one of the best games iv played, ever.
