Gradius is one or two steps beyond every other Famicom/NES shooting game released at its time. The game ends the time where shooting games would loop endlessly. Gradius features several very different designed levels with great graphics and music as well as a clever extra-weapon upgrade system and good playability.
Personal Rating: 4/5 stars

Across the galaxy, there exists a distant planet known as Gradius. Gradius’ peaceful existence has been brought to an end by an intense space invasion by a race known as the Bacterion. To save the planet, the hyperspace fighter Vic Viper has been deployed to fight the Bacterion invasion. Players pilot the Vic Viper through seven stages, shooting and dodging through deadly obstacles, while using various power-ups, including missiles, lasers, options and shields. The Vic Viper’s target is the enemy fortress, Xaerous. The only way to end the war is to plunge deep through the enemy forces and destroy its very core.
