    Hey guys, remember how Voltron was all about running around as the Lions and shooting ant sized humanoids with your giant laser guns?

    Its a Dual joystick shooter. There was no forming of the head to be found in this demo, no clue if you actually get to play as Voltron in the game at all from what was shown in the demo and Im not sure if I really want to find out at this point. Childhood raped. Again.

    There was absolutely no fanfare surrounding this game. Not a big surprise it's less than stellar.

    Im not saying the game is bad I guess, I just dont see how you can turn Voltron into a duel stick shooter. They could have just made a cheap knockoff of the Gundam Dynasty Warriors games and that would have been fine.

    Going into it, I REALLY wanted the game. After playing the demo, I'll just wait for a sale, and pick it up on the cheap, hopefully.

    Your childhood being raped will happen inevitably when they finally make Voltron into a movie and it is basically Transformers all over again with Shia LaBeouf playing the role of Keith. Don't feel bad though, my childhood will also be raped in the process.

    Voltron just needs to make an appearance in another Super Robot Wars game and I'll be content.
