Tyrian 2000 is one of the best space arcade games ever made. Why? I thought you would never ask, let me tell you. The graphic in the game is pure perfection! (Look at the screens, agree and read on). The music is also exceptional. There isn't much more to say about that. What gives this game a pure 5 point score is the plot. Yes, this game (unlike all the others) has a plot. And it is a deep one.

Das alles wirkt wie ein Ausflug in die Vergangenheit; aber auch da gab es schon weitaus bessere Ballereien für Ihren PC. Tyrian 2000 hat bestenfalls Nostalgiewert.

Overall, the game is supremely lacking. Really only aimed at a few, very select gamers who are stuck in the old Aero-Fighter genre of shooters, Tyrian 2000 is just a more complicated version of 1942. This genre has been basically beaten to death; everything that could be done has been done. This time, they didn't even bother to update the graphics. My recommendation: don't bother even looking at the box.
