Eurogamer: "As it stands, Final Fantasy Tactics and Disgaea still remain leagues ahead in the PSP's turn-based action stakes, but the stark space setting and the dedication to extracting the best elements of the R-Type universe and placing them in a new genre isn't entirely disagreeable. Indeed, with a better ranking or medal system this could have scored much better. A level editor, too, would have been nice, or maybe more than just ad-hoc two-player battles."
