Critic Reviews for Arcade Archives LIFE FORCE
Arcade Archives: Life Force is a definite classic that any fan of the genre should own. With intense challenging gameplay and many modes and versions to enjoy it in, you'll be picking up this gem from time to time for years to come.
In conclusion, Salamander/Life Force is as still as outstanding of a shooter as it has ever been, and this Arcade Archives release maintains all of that perfectly, even adding more options compared to the version in the Anniversary Collection. Combine that with the inclusion of Japanese Life Force, an oft-forgotten take on Salamander with a new power up system and some balancing tweaks, and you have one of the best Arcade Archive releases to ever exist.
