Got this one yesterday FINALLY and DAMN IT'S HARD!!! I'm trying to play through on normal and I just get absolutely obliterated! I BARELY survived level 2, and the boss on 3 (the one that runs) just smacked me down like there's no tomorrow! What is with the difficulty on this game? I know that games like this arent supposed to be easy, but COME ON! This one is beyond low in the cheap shots department with undodgeable lasers abound, and sometimes I've found that I can't switch forms fast enough to protect myself either. Just BRUTAL! Anyone else have this problem with it?

I just got the game myself, and concur. I'm not out of level 2 yet. Can't get past the worms.
All that said, I still want to go back for more.... :-D

it is hard, but once you get the hang of morphing and gliding, it gets a lot better, a lot of the bosses have a pattern to them, and you have to know when to glide forward and back. some of the levels require you to use the dragon without lockon, so that you can destroy the missles shot at you quick enough to avoid being hit. it's hard the first time through, but it does get easier.

My friend beat the game....it really is about patterns. Took him 50 tries to beat the final boss, but now he knows what to do at all parts, he plows through it.

Took me a while to get where i got in the game on the normal setting.I'm still one level short and i beat the game on normal,not to menttion that some of th bosses cheat like crazy which made me angry a couple of times but i got over it eventually and started beating the bosses that i had trouble beating in the beggining of the game.Overall i still like the game alot.

Orta's a lot like an old-fashioned 2-D shooter, as you've got to learn the patterns of the bosses and get your timing just right in order to get through the game. I thought it was pretty hard, but then, that's one of the reasons I enjoyed it so much. There's nothing like that sense of accomplishment when you make it past a particularly grueling level.

I'm on level three now. I only have one game for my XBOX and this is it. I made a good choice methinks. :D
