Summary: Space Ace rocks!
Review: 15 years ago, I was one of those guys who waited hour after hour to play this game. The thought of a cartoon that you can control thrills me. Ok, you don't have that many options, but still it's a great idea. Finally, now I got it home and I took it right to my heart. It works good on my JVC, even without patches... So I don't see any problems with it... BUY NOW! Yours sincerely. -Jonas

Summary: A Great Classic Brought back in DVD
Review: Back in the 80's Space Ace was a game for people to get in line because it was a lot of fun. Space Ace has been in every format, and now after almost 20 years from its release we can enjoy it in our house with our DVD's. There is a little pause between every move to the game but that will vary from player to player. There is also a "watch" option that lets you relax and watch the hole game without playing it. A great Classic. Don Bluth made a great game.

Summary: Game doesn't work well
Review: I really would like this game if it didn't have so many problems. First I had to download patches for the game to make it work. Then it still would freeze up on me on certain parts of the game. Once it froze I had to start all over again. So I emailed Digital leisure and all they could tell me is I could buy a DVD attachment. I think they should have gave me a better answer than that. I also got dragons lair but that worked fine.

Summary: There are better uses for your Playstation 2...
Review: I tried this DVD on Playstation 2, which in addition to being a game console is a fully functional DVD player. Trying to play Space Ace DVD on this system was pure frustration. The pauses that occur every time you enter a move are significant...seemed like a good 2 seconds...making it impossible to enjoy playing. However, one cool feature of the DVD is the "Watch" option which allows you to view the game from beginning to end. Believe me you have never seen this before, even if you've played the arcade version all the way through, because now you can view it without any "beeps" and without any gaps...even between levels. For me, this feature makes the DVD worth buying, although some people may find it hard to understand why you spent $ on roughly 15 minutes of animation. The second neat feature is a few old news clips related to the game. Particularly entertaining is a segment where Rick Dyer describes his circa 1985 home laser disc game console as comparable in sophistication to the HAL 9000! Daisy...daisy...

Summary: There are better uses for your Playstation 2...
Review: OK, let's start by mentioning that there are TWO versions of this DVD. There is a DVD-ROM version which requires Windows 95/98 to run, and there is THIS version (called DVD-VIDEO) which does NOT require a computer to run. Both versions are manufactured by Digital Leisure. Here is the scoop on both versions... DVD-ROM version:
-Requires Windows 95/98 to run. (I don't know if it will work with Windows 2000 or Windows Me)
-Has smoother game play. From what I have heard from other people, the game play on this version is practically flawless.
-I don't think that this version has the "watch" feature, which lets you view the entire animation without actually playing the game.
DVD-VIDEO Version:
-Does NOT require a computer to run.
-When I use this on my Sony DVD player that is hooked to my TV, the game play is painful. There are 2-3 second gaps between moves that makes the game almost unbearable. However, when I play this on my computer's DVD drive, the game play is quite good. There are still gaps between moves, but only about 1/4 of a second or so.
-Has a "watch" feature that lets you view the entire animation without playing it. This is very cool!
-Works on MOST DVD players, except some Toshiba models.
WHY I BOUGHT THIS VERSION:
Even though the game play is better on the DVD-ROM version, I decided to buy the DVD-VIDEO version for a couple of reasons...
-The "watch" feature was important to me. I wanted the ability to just sit back and take in the whole beautiful animation without having to do shoot, left, left, shoot, etc.
-I wanted this purchase to last. In other words, I didn't want to be forced to buy a new version of this product when I switch my computer system over to Windows 2000 (or whatever Bill Gates comes up with next).
ABOUT THE ACTUAL GAME:
What can I say??? This game is an arcade classic, and a personal all-time favorite of mine. The images on the DVD look EXACTLY like they did in the arcade. I can not tell any difference. It is awesome, and I love it!!!
