Maker - Capcom / Takumi   Catalogue No. - T-1238M

Type - 2D Shooting Action

A solid "shump" for the Dreamcast that easily holds it's head high against the other 2D shooters on DC, Gigawing (Also by Takumi and released by Capcom) and Gunbird 2.  Mars Matrix is none stop action all the way and features a novel system of collecting money while you play "Nothing new there" I hear you say, but then with the money that you have collected whilst playing, you can buy things from the in-game shop found within the options.  The items you can buy are mostly secrets to the game such as extra lives, continues and much more but I won't say here because I don't want to spoil the surprise.  There are also 3 modes of play, ARCADE, ARRANGED (2 version) and SCORE MODE not to mention a tutorial.
