Kidō Senshi Z Gundam: Hot Scramble

I admit to be quite a Gundam fan, but this game didn't impress me. Each of the stages consists of three parts. The first part plays on Earth and has you shooting down other mobile suits and aircrafts from first-person perspective. The second part is the same just in space. In the third part the perspective changes to a side-view shooting game inside space stations and huge spaceships where you have to find your way to the reactor and blow it up. This part resembles that of Thexder. Graphics are average, the same music is played through all the parts and all the levels. The first-person parts look a bit better than the side-view part, but I didn't like the overly hectic shooting. And while the Gundam series always had a strong story, there is nothing story-wise to find ingame. So for me this wastes a lot of extra-motivational potential, similar as it was with the earlier released Macross game for the Famicom.
