 Nash Werner from GamePro shared Lopez 's views , explaining that GameFX , along with THQ , " have released a modern 3D version " of the original Sinistar that " sports some of the best graphics ever seen in a space shooter " , although he added that it had lost " some of the soul " that the original game had . Bob Mandel from The Adrenaline Vault was impressed with the game . Although he agreed that there would " certainly be both buyers and reviewers who will bash this title mercilessly , bemoaning the absence of complicated missions and tactical planning " , he stated that with Sinistar : Unleashed , GameFX and THQ managed to create a " true arcade classic " . He saw it as the only remake of a game from the 1980s to achieve that status .
