Collector interest

A science-fiction rail shooter by Electronic Arts, putting the player at the controls of a fighter against an alien invasion, carried by live-action cutscenes typical of the early CD-ROM era. Still common in the West, its interest lies in this dated cachet of the first PlayStation wave rather than scarcity. An affordable piece for fans of retro shooters, with no real collector value.
