Style of its Own...

The problem with games these days is that they all fall under very simple categories...FPP shoot-em up/deathmatches, fighting games, shooting games, etc. Space Channel 5 is a genuinely unique game. It plays like the Rocky Horror Picture Show...combined with the groove of Deee Lite and retro stylings. It has character and I've not seen a game that amused a room full of people on a large stereo system like this game has. True, a dance pad would have added a whole lot, and a multiplayer feature would've been welcome. But all in all, this game is just a representation of how Sega's developers have a different approach to gaming in mind. Can't wait for Jet Grind Radio and Shenmue.

All about timing

The ultimate eyecandy game where the graphics are excellent and the soundtrack is a bonus. I was amazed at the images and fluid animation. The game is all about timing and as the game moves forward and the sequences quicken a little frustration may set in. Learning curve as far as timing goes may be roughly in the medium range - some folks may get it right off the bat, it took me slightly longer to figure out the beat sequence. The soundtrack may be a tad louder than necessary and often drowns out the movement instructions. There are times when being able to see Ulala's movement will help with determining beat sequence - however, overhead shots may make the figures seem small and therefore audio is all you have to go on. Overall, an entertaining game with enough replay value to go back to it. I have to admit its addictive. Its definitely not a game for everyone, renting it first may save you the frustration if you lack confidence in your own rhythm.

Nice Graphics!

I like the moves that ulala uses in the game. I find it funny and amusing. Everytime i come home, i'm motivated to play space channel 5. It's something that's interesting to play. It's sort of like parapa the rapper on the Sony play station. But the graphics will blow you away. It's more like memorizing the steps in order for you to complete the level, and advance further. But i got to give it to Sega. It is interesting to play. And what do you know....Michael Jackson is in it.....:o)..So you dancing fans out there..go and check it out. At the begining of play you might be upset...but as you keep playing it..you will enjoy the game from then on...it's funny to watch ulala's dancing ,and they're preety good moves...so check it out....

Fun repetitive game but never loses its touch..

Space Channel 5 is well...Grooooooooovy. Hahah.
The game is pretty much well..Dancing. But the game is solid. You play the game as Ulala, A space reporter, but a very groovy space reporteri a galaxy. Shes got some pretty cool dances and has a grooooovy attitude. You must use your groovy dances and moves to save the planet from an invasion from some sort of aliens called the Morolians. The game is fun. As the other reviewer mention the game does get pretty hard even near the beginning of the game. The game has some really good graphics and some cool colorful retro type enviroment.

Lets get to it...

The graphics in the game are up to par with other hot Dreamcast titles. The graphics were pretty stunning at one point but are still good and not Outdated. But not AMAZING graphics, duhh. I would Have to give the graphics a star for that..

The sound is great. It has a pretty cool soundtrack with cool funky, groovy(yeah thats getting annoying) dance songs and really awesome beats to get to you in the game.

Gameplay is really fun with nothing but DANCE DANCE DANCE. But cool dancing of course..Like I said before this game is funky. And.....groovy.eheh. The gameplay shows off some really cool realistic dance moves that will have you dancing on your mind. HELL MAYBE ON YOUR FEET! Theres alot of cool levels to dance too and some cool hidden levels when you replay the whole game again.

The creators did a great job with this DC title. From great graphics to groovy dance beats to funky levels....and lots of hard repetitive gameplay I give Space Channel five for Dreamcast..

4.0 out 5 stars..

Lates

It is fun but difficult.

This game is pretty hard, but you get the satifaction after you have done really well on it. In the game you have to time each move in your head, you dont have a time meter or anything like that, so when you mess up it could effect your TV rating, which you have to keep up. But if you do it correctly
you save the people and you feel satisfied.
