It would be nice if there was a complete walkthrough for this game. Excellent game, a decade ahead of it's time. Too bad there are no other sequels to this wonderful IP.
Absolutely one of my favorite games ever. Back in my freshman year in college, I played every day trying to finish it on a single quarter...and finally did.
I have the PSX version and most of my old skill, but the analog controller doesn't quite have the right feel for me to match that feat today with my 20-year-older reflexes.
I spent most of my quarters at Aladdin's Castle playing this game, but haven't seen it anywhere since that place closed. I wish I could find any place that had a working cabinet, or someone who was selling one. A local place to me, Galloping Ghost, has 200+ restored 80's games and I'm going to demand that they find one of these and put it up! I've been trying for years to remember what this game was called, let alone see gameplay footage. THANK YOU!!
I wish someone would make this game for Xbox and the iPhone. The controllers for XBox are perfect for this. I loved this game as a kid.... if XBox doesn't come out with it some day soon I'm going to buy the actual machine.
You should try to stall until the very last second to kill the last big gun and end the round. If you make the last bullet hit the last gun on exactly 0 seconds, it will credit you for the full time that you started the round with. The bonus will be larger and you can wring even more points out of the game.
It kicked so much ass, I ended up buying a couple of the same joysticks that are used in the Assault arcade game. Someday I will make a control panel with them, and use them with MAME, so I can properly play Assault again.
I got very lucky a while back and found someone on eBay that was selling a pair of the same type of joysticks as on an Assault machine. It looked like he had started making a control panel for some game (I'm not sure what), but he didn't get too far, and must have given up and sold the joysticks instead. Cont...
The joysticks are expensive, and some of the items look to be out of stock. I have no idea if their "Est Avail Date" means they are going to restock or not.
I play this with a Hori VLX and it feels just right.

Looks like you still have the touch...

I have been trying to find joysticks for this game for my MAME cabinet. I have not been able to find them.

Where did you buy them?

The joysticks are from Happ.
