This looks awesome!!

I like the look of this one!

Reminds me a lot of F-Zero in terms of the visuals and music, but the way you play certainly seems unique.

I am getting this the second it becomes available

This looks awsome, graphics remind me of geometry wars.

Like others have said this does look like a mashup of F-zero & Tempest type gameplay. Very good.

I think it'd possibly be cool too to bring back Mach Rider.

Looks pretty good. I wonder whether it will be controlled via the pointer, or more traditionally? The ship movement seems a bit wobbly in the trailer, so it might be pointer-based.

After watching that video this will be the first WiiWare game I buy (if it is a launch, it better). I love flight shooters, and this looks great single or multiplayer.

9. GameGod3008 30 Apr 2008, 17:06 GMT

Wikipedia's list of Wiiware games says this will be out at launch for North America.

10. XCWarrior 02 May 2008, 13:19 GMT

And I am supposed to believe wikipedia b/c? I heard on a podcast from people that actually know something is that it will be out a few weeks after launch. I'll go with that over wiki.... that site is so inaccurate. Anyway, I want the game NOW!

If F-Zero became a shooter, it would look like this game.

12. Akantor 04 May 2008, 02:30 GMT

The video looks promising but I would love to see more clips of gameplay.

13. Objection_Blaster 06 May 2008, 02:03 GMT

700 pts? (what it says) Gotta grab me this Hope that it doesnt get stale after a few levels...but the art is cool. Hope it has online leaderboards and drop in/out multplayer!

This is the game i am hyped for

15. morphballer 10 May 2008, 21:51 GMT

I will be keeping an eye on this one.

Can't wait for it to come out next week. I'm getting it over Star Soldier R. Seems to have more depth for the same price. And I thought it was 800? Did I hear wrong?

17. SuperSonic1990 15 May 2008, 18:58 GMT

Gyrostar costs 700 points and Star Soldier R costs 800 points.

18. KnucklesSonic8 15 May 2008, 19:33 GMT

Oh, well this just made things more interesting for me. I've bene planning out my purchases, considering point values and I planned everything considering Gyrostarr was 800. This is good. Thanks for the verificiation.
