I wish Tecnosoft had put more effort into upgrading the PS version graphically a bit. The new CGI videos are really great, but e.g. level 3 looks a lot better on Saturn. Saturn was pretty bad with polygons so they could have made some improvements for PS, but ok. Anyhow, great game, and I can play it in HD which is worth a lot. Thanks for the video, another great playthrough.

10 years late, but I'll answer it: when you don't hold the attack button, the free range visor will rotate 180 degrees oposite of where you're going, ex: going top right will point the free range to bottom right. when you hold the attack button, the free range will stay and fixed it's orientation to the last direction before you hold it and will attack anything that comes to it's range. hope that answers your question

If the game had the Saturn's in game graphics with the playstation modes and content + video scenes that would be great but for whatever reason the PSX version is not as good as far as the in game experience.

But graphics aged more rapidly then for TF 3 & 4 due to using polygons. They just don't look very good anymore. I played this a lot on my Saturn, but now I prefer the PS1 version on my PS3 in HD. Looks SO much brighter and cleaner.
