G-Darius is a horizontally-scrolling shoot 'em up arcade game, released by Taito in 1997. It is part of the Darius series. The G stands for both Gigantic and Genesis (it is a prequel to the other Darius games).
G-Darius is the only game in the series to use real polygonal 3D graphics, and the last 'new' game of the series.
The gameplay is similar to that of its predecessors, with one main new feature. The Silver Hawk is equipped with Capture balls, which, when launched at a sufficiently weakened enemy, can capture it and allow the player to control it. Different enemies have different movements and firing patterns when captured.
The player can explode a captured enemy to create a powerful explosion, or can absorb it and generate a destructive beam called the Alpha Beam.
Destined to be the definitive shooter for the PlayStation game console, G.Darius is a worthy successor to the proud Darius heritage of arcade shooters.
Features:
* Battle 28 Huge Bosses
* Choose your path - 5 different endings
* Multiple weapons and power-ups
* Conquer 15 enormous levels
