Axelay - Stage 5 on Hard Difficulty

[animeasskicker]

I remember kicking Waylor's ass. I loved this game as a kid, too bad I never beat the last stage though.

[Demonicor]

Was this made by Konami?

With the sound effects and Mode 7 graphics it reminds me alot of Contra 3.

[IbukiSF3]

@Demonicor Yup. Sure is made by Konami. That's why there's some graphic and sound relations with some other Konami games.

[sugreev2001]

SNES is my pick for the best console in the 90's.I still have my SNES from 1991,along with 100+ games.Some games are truly infinitely repayable,Axelay among them.

1:02 OMFG !!!!! evading master

[Fredoki26]

Best Shoot for the best Console ever

[Gilvader210]

Best stage best music in the game.

[skillz0122]

First time i saw this boss I was like "OMG"

[valkiriforce]

1:15 I love how Konami makes references to their own games like that.

[c2thew]

i could never get past this boss's fire stream on hard when I was a kid. blah now i know better.

[GeoVII]

THE SPICE MUST FLOW!

[IYellalot]

MOOOOOOOODDDDDDEEEEEEEE SEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEE­EENNNNNNNNNN!

[EttoKokonoe]

@IYellalot

What does mode 7 mean, again?

[BPoe07]

@EttoKokonoe Mode 7 was the Super Nintendo's hardware system for applying bi-axial 3D effects to 2D sprites. In layman's terms: really slick hardware-level scaling and rotation effects. And it allows you to treat an entire background--like in this stage, for example--as a single unit to scale and rotate.

[edvanced12]

with today's 2D capabilities, a company can put together an epic game like this.

[snk46625]

I remember how much I loved this game, playing it on the small TV in the back of the motor home when we went for long trips somewhere during the summer. Many good nights back then. I wish I had time for such things nowadays.

[brad42948]

truly brilliant - shame more Snes games did not match up to the technical excellence of this title.

[blackburnheart]

The final boss is pretty badass. Actually is harder than what it looks like.

[YURIJONES000]

O kra é foda!

[robj89]

and they packed this all in a cart folks,THIS IS NOT A CD, SIMPLY AMAZING!!

[robj89]

rich bass sound,awesome graphics and MODE 7 SUPER-SIZED FIREWORMS, SCREEN SIZED MAGMA CHEAP BOSS,DEFINITELY A SNES/KONAMI TREAT FROM MY PAST, (drrrrrrooooolllllll!)

[bart78170]

What an impressive Boss , i like it.

[FF7ACJW]

This is my favorite level in the game. It's so cool! It also has my favorite music from the game.

[Sandroaraponga]

Beatiful game and one of the bests in Snes. I have and still play

[FatherPrim]

Were those dragons a Gradius III reference?

[Vednier]

Yes, probably. I also think these dragons does not look right in sci-fi game

[torm223300]

@FatherPrim Yup. They also resemble those on Salamander and Gradius II.

[MeatMaggot]

@FatherPrim: The game has several Gradius references, from certain enemies to background details (shattered Moai). No surprise, it's a Konami game, after all.

[007Thanos007]

@FatherPrim More likely they were a reference to "Salamander" ("LifeForce" in the U.S.) -it was the Stage 3 Boss.

[BillxMach]

@FatherPrim it looks possible. Both games were made by Konami.

[123doomdoom]

@FatherPrim More like salamander : l

[rofljelly135]

i can barely beat the first stage on easy, but to make it here on hard...that is godly.

[HITpadawan]

That lava giant is one of the most incredible shoot em up bosses Ive ever seen

[remberguerrero76]

from SUPERNINTENDO

[saturnalia696]

Can some one please tell me for

what system this vidio game is?

[lokakuu1985]

Super Nintendo.

[saturnalia696]

Thanks for the information about

AXELAY.

[YangShengVT]

I loved this Game :) The EndBoss roxors!

[ahlam33]

Gasp!!!

This game rocks!!!

[djwho75]

i have good memories of this game,the music is fantastic!!!!

[TGArthur]

Why does everyone repeat each other and every stage he puts in everyone says HOW great the game and music and level is. WE KNOW!!!

[ferbobian]

...go fuck yourself

[TGArthur]

Thanks sweetheart

[Zedarlis]

The boss in this level deserves a big wow.

[HalifaxHercules]

@Zedarlis Waylor (stage 5 boss) is definitely the bess bosses ever designed.

[jighonky]

best game music ever

[dilliot2k]

konami always does a good job with the music in their games. Especially back on the snes. Contra, this, castlevania. They used to roc!!

[thefriendsociety]

these levels suck mode 7 looks crap.

[clownhorse]

It's not really mode 7.

It just looks like mode 7.

[wayzotoichi]

magic game that was pushing the SNES controls, graphics and sounds to its limits! ATMOSPHERE was A+ like Probotector/Contra IV.

[jacobrich]

The only other game I lied this much was Einhander and maybe R-Type... oh, and Life Force on the NES.

[stringanime]

This is another great title done by Star Team AKA: "Treasure" now. Other titles are> > >: Contra 3, Castlevania 4. I think their best shoot'em up was "Bangio" as Treasure. It was Hard in a fun way.

[GamerWatcher]

Huh? It's Konami... Not Treasure 0_0

[stringanime]

Star Team made this for Konami...Some Star Team Broke up and left Konami to form Treasure....

[decapattack]

And made awesome games for the Genesis.
