Been a while since I reviewed anything, so let's start with this. Gorlog 2002 is a pretty fun and addictive game. Many people complain that it's too hard. This is because they suck at this type of shooter.
Graphics: The graphics are smooth and pleasant to look at. The weapon attacks are also good and well-animated. If you've ever got the maxed out weapon, by which I mean the HUGE laser, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Style: The style suffers a bit, in that one shot (or collision) is all it takes to kill you. Granted this is how most shooters are, but when you're being swarmed by a thousand green energy balls and those meteor blob things, it's pretty frustrating, especially because you lose all your power-ups. Otherwise it's good here.
Sound: Now this is where the game suffers. The sound effects are okay, but the music is dull and monotonous. I actually always turn it off before I start playing, and listen to music from the Star Fox series instead.
Violence: I almost didn't want to rate violence, because it's a shooter and I felt it irrelevant (every shooter has violence). But seeing as just about EVERYTHING explodes, I had to rate it.
I won't rate it on interactivity or humor, as it's a game so interactivity is guaranteed, and since it's a shooter there won't be humor. So we'll just leave those as 0, and ignore the two categories completely. Overall, this game gets an 8.25 out of 10. Good job, but try to make it less difficult next time, and make the game longer. I've beaten this game, but it took a few tries.
