			is this game seriously any good? how would u rate it if it were on a list of the top 100 dc games

			I wouldn't say it's 'very good', but it's a nice throwback to the oldschool, and it's the first real hori shooter we've seen in a while. For me personally, as far as the DC's shooter lineup, I would rank it above GigaWing 1 and 2 and possibly Mars Matrix, but below ZG2, Gunbird 2 and of course Ikaruga. Compared to other horizontal shooters, I would rank it above the likes of a Blazing Star, Prehistoric Isle 2, or perhaps most fittingly, Metal Black, but below Pulstar, R-Type 3, or Thunderforce. It's quite similar to the likes of Metal Black or Darius in a way.

			If it were on the list of the top 100 DC games, a review would hardly matter.

			Nah, Mars Matrix is way better. you just have to give it a chance. Border isn't bad though.

			I didn't say Mars Matrix was bad, just that I prefer Border Down.
