Players Can Still Sign Up for the “Shoot Now, Win Prizes Later”

By  •  Wii

REDWOOD CITY, CA – June 10, 2008 – Hudson Entertainment today released
a new trailer for galactic shooter Star Soldier R for WiiWare on Wii,
which recently launched. The trailer highlights game play from both
the 2-Minute and 5-Minute modes. There is also still time for players
to compete in  Star Soldier R’s “Shoot Now, Win Prizes Later”
tournament and sweepstakes, running until June 24.

Star Soldier R is a 2-level game that features a tournament-style
approach in its gameplay which challenges players to achieve a high
score in either a 2-Minute or 5-Minute Mode. Each mode offers quick
and exciting gameplay and gives players just enough time to play
through each mode. The 2-Minute Mode features one stage where gamers
have 2 minutes to battle their way tp a fight against one giant boss.
In the 5-Minute Mode, players have five minutes to work their way past
the first level and its boss to fight and defeat another boss in a
second level.

Both modes are time-limited, and added competitive and replay value for
players comes after they earn their scores, which they can post to the
in-game leaderboards and then check out how they compare with other
players in the region or even the world. The goal is for players to
replay the game over and over again to beat their high score, improve
their ranking, and discover different strategies in order to earn
bonus points in the 2-Minute and 5-Minute Modes. If they can collect
them all, they might have the honor of boasting the top score in the
world!
