I remember this game being panned, but the only truly poor thing I can think of is the hit detection (you had to be a certain distance, no nearer or further, for punches/kicks to hit). Graphics and music were good, movement was fluid and the environments/stages were varied and changed the gameplay and tactics.
Does Black Hole Assault have a soundtrack on the game disc? If so, is there a track that sounds similar to Terminator 2? Maybe it was a different game I was thinking of.
You guys can't imagine how long I have been waiting to see this intro! I was so hooked on this game. This was THE game I would show anyone to show what the Sega CD could do with animation. Great music, acting, and animation for it's day. Too bad the game sucked. I wish they could do another game. A strategy type game would work.
Wow I am surprised to see an actual video of this game. Back then I only saw pictures of this in a magazine. Did you know this game was the sequel to the Genesis game "Heavy Nova" ?
For the record, I couldn't jump when recording this, which is why it looks like I am gimped in these 2 fights. This is also why the movie is cut short because I will never be able to beat the later enemies without being able to jump! So I just stopped playing.
Wow I finally found the name to this game! I played this way back when it came out but could not remember the name. Thanks for you putting this up.

The music for this game was amazing. I used it as the score for a backyard film I did when I was 13.

Anyone ever access the Hidden Pong Game on this game? It was FUN and had a wicked rock soundtrack.

I owned this game back then. Never been a huge fan, since it's a little bit repetitive and boring, but the sound effects and music are excellent.

The voice acting is quite decent. The norm back then used to be that it sucked, unless it was done by Working Designs.

I loved this game! I never saw the ending though. Would you be able to upload videos of you beating it! That would be awesome!

If the response is good enough to these two vidoes, I will coax the rest of the story out and get it posted.
