Critic Reviews for Darius Cozmic Collection

A couple of omissions grate and it's hardly cheap, but this is a sumptuous collection for the grandest of shmups.

Fish-obsessed 2D shooter series Darius gets two separate compilations, one of which features one of the rarest video games ever made.

Darius Cozmic Collection does offer a lot of enjoyment for fans of shmups, regardless of which version is played.

Darius Cozmic Collection Arcade is a good compilation and the titles included are of a high quality, but as comprehensive as it is, it's still a little limited for the price. Enthusiasts, however, will be delighted by it.

There's a lot to take in when reviewing a package like Darius Cozmic Collection and we wish that it had been released in a single version which includes all of the bonus games, but it is safe to say that this release floats somewhere between the barebone lack-of-care ports like the Psikyo ZeroDiv releases and the passionate ocean of love that are M2's ShotTrigger ports.

Do not get me wrong, this is a very good collection, but it is very hard to justify a purchase at full price for what is essentially 3 unique games and 4 variations.

Darius Cozmic Collection Arcade is a rock solid collection of Taito classic shooters in one package that can be listed more premium than casual fans may be willing to pay.

All in all, this is a high-quality collection of games, but the experience is brought down by some missing content and a high price tag.
