Enemy Zero (Sega Saturn)

[rvnhrt47]

I started my VG playing on the Sega Saturn. I loved this system. Still lament it's passing. I played almost all titles but this one I never did. Always wanted to. Well Ebay here I come

[genericsavings]

This game just made me FEEL despair. One hit kills, limited ammo, limited saves(a battery that can never be recharged) absolute silence followed by loud horrific screeching/noises, accompanied with very intelligent/logic based puzzles. It's a rare treat for a GAME to make you feel like there's no hope in surviving. It's really meant for hardcore gamers... but it was an exhilarating experience.

[szikeskelemen]

The music is by Michael Nyman

[metbobobo]

no it's not the Laura from D

[Paganrace0]

A game with an atmosphere of incredible tension .... who played know the despair that is finding an enemy through the halls of the scenery ... Survival of the best in the genre. Good times!

[THEm4rduk]

theres subliminar message on 07:38 thats master technique for the fear factor

[THEm4rduk]

the softhouses opening sequences was much more creative on those years

[THEm4rduk]

good times back there. good times

[thehigherdrake]

where can i download this?

pc version

[voltz15]

@thehigherdrake Ebay's pretty cheap.

[bub777]

DAAAAAAAAAANG that's alotta ship!

[BlondBlackBrown]

Actually, this game's Laura isn't the same as the Laura from D.

[EpicWin12]

i only found this game because of a reference in hayate the combat butler.

[AxeBlack84]

The game is well made, just too much like Aliens for me.

[thatguyontheright1]

@AxeBlack84 I'd say its more like Alien than Aliens.

It has the creepy atmosphere of Alien, as well as the sense of claustrophobia.

[AxeBlack84]

Aliens..... and they kill the black dude first

[Monacomaverick]

I had this game for the Saturn once. It deffinately wasn't my style, but I can see why some people would like it.

[Urmean15]

I think this game was the unofficial Doom 3.

[Trazen4]

The only games comparable with this,are D and D2 (They both star the same character as Enemy Zero),Fatal Frame,Call of Cthulhu:Dark Corners Of The Earth (Your guy will actually try to shoot himself if he gets to creeped out),and LSD:The Dream Simulator for PS1.(It has NOTHING to do with the drug,though the game is the weirdest and most bizarre of the ones I've mentioned,since everything including the area textures and scares are random.)

[QwoPhasaArius]

@Trazen4 Cheers for the recommendations.

[SVTcoolguy]

Oh wow memories. I always got stuck at the very end. That piano thing to decipher the monsters location was awesome. This was my first survival horror game I ever played

[Meborian]

I loved this game :) would love to play it again someday.

[derBene]

Was that "oh! oh!"-sound ( 01:57 ) her being hurt? Sounded bad, especially not female.

Still, interesting game :)

[WeskerSega]

@derBene It's an alarm sound actually, one that sounds when the enemy is real close to you. Laura doesn't ever moan when in the FPS parts (no point to it since you are killed just as you are reached by an enemy). She does that only in the CGI cutscenes and when she cries and else.

[derBene]

@WeskerSega Thanks, that makes sense. Wasn't aware that she dies when touched by an enemy.

[TiMMYSQUibbLES]

Holy crap, Laura!?!?! Is this tied in to "D" somehow? I have to play this

[halfofme]

He shoots an eagle?

[aryinc]

@5:16 suck on that.gelatinecock in her mouth.what's up with the beeping anyway ,makes me think of mc donalds.

[drunkensailor112]

this game seems so appealing to me except I've heard it's tremendously hard. I love all other d games.

[Branded1978]

Which is a great thing. Too often these days games are far to easy that you don't reallly feel your getting your money's worth. Enemy Zero was a man sized challenged. Once you learnt the technique its not hard at all. But keep yoyr nerve is very hard indeed. This game still scares me at night.

[JBalmoreS]

wow that ringing noise is sure scary but it looks too difficult to play?

[Branded1978]

not really. It will take time to get use too but it pretty solid

[Quickswitch79]

This still scares me now, about 12 years after I last played it. Seriously the scariest, spookiest game of ALL time.

Gutted I still don't have it as I never managed to finish it (what the hell was the code on the keypad to the captain's office??).

[karoshimon]

HAha, it's like that episode of Dr. Who!

[Masterheart]

looks like a extremely hard version of Killer 7

[fareedbakhit]

i remember this game wen i was little i have never owen i saturn back in those days i got a ps1 insted but i have heard about this game that it's one of the scaryest game ever released on the saturn actully i have heard most people have played it got nightmare at night and they take a long time to go back and touch there saturn.

[alecjahn]

You can really hear all that Michael Nyman in the soundtrack. Top notch!

[TheSegaAges]

Michael Nyman's contribution was amazing. Him working with Kenji Eno = Genius.

[ThreeBooleans]

This fuken game, I was just a small pup back then... scared me to death, couldn't sleep at night. Still played it though :)

[WolfsbaneRevolution]

I love this game!

[shouamabane]

This game was scary as hell to me. I remember my palms sweating like crazy when the beeping noise would start! Underrated game, I love it. :)

[BarneyGumble8]

At one point my hands were shaking I was so nervous when I played this. You could only load the game a limited number of times, I got right to the end, where the bleeping stops and a guy tells you where the monster is instead, and died and ran out of loads. This is the first time I have seen the ending...

[finalfantasydart]

the grapics are amazing!!!

[apinesdia]

Man, this was the most amazing game I ever played on a Sega Saturn.

I remember, my English wasnt so good at that time and the final scene when someone (cant remember who) give you instructions, I just got crazy, but with a good luck and a thousand tries, I did ! :-)

Can you remember, you are not allowed to save when you are trying to kill an enemy lol :-)

Tks for posting it.

[Sansana]

I like the scene that alien growing inside her neck.

It's very sensational scene to see her pain.

Unfortunately she wasn't beautiful enough.

[hamadbeast]

i have this game original cd's!! i play it and finished it !!!

it's on sega saturn!!!

[mausboy80]

What the heck is "D"? If it's a game or a movie, that's a lousy name because you can't do a search for it.

[CaRC1n0g3n]

Look it up on Wikipedia. There's an article for it there.

[MightyPinto]

Holy Shit this looks tense O_o

[Fleimari]

Oh shit this game is very scary ! I have this game and I'm playing it right now. Goddamit I got heartattack when the the blinking voice starts :D

EVERYONE GET THIS GAME NOW ! 5/5

[thedragonb0y]

I WANT TO PLAY THIS GAME!!!!

[Pietreszcz]

9:30 I bet she thought: "Ooooh, NOW I'm fucked" :D

[ricochetguro]

dor how old the game is it looks great

[coffeecub]

is there an emulator for the sega saturn?? i would love to have the japanese version of the game.  the volice acting in japanese seems to give the game a more realistic feel

[hamadbeast]

i played the english version !! it's so good and it will give you a heart attack!!!

[Outlander11]

This game looks kind of erotic, lol.

[sunjonathan]

Kenji Eno sure made games that were ahead of their time. I'm sure if D2 and Enemy Zero were re-released and updated (skippable cut scenes, graphics) for the Wii(motion controls and IR for shooting accuracy). It would sell much better than the Sega days.

[drunkensailor112]

actually kenji eno's games have sold very well. d sold over a million copies for instance

[thprfssnl1]

a young ronaldinho saves the day at 3:00

[djhenyo]

sorry just not seeing what you are talking about at all

[UncleSamEagle]

This game had such a brilliant concept but ended up being really flawed...

The amount the camera bobbed while you were walking or running was excessive and made it feel like you were a volleyball bouncing though a hallway. Almost every hallway in the FPS sections looked the same and it was too damn easy to get lost, especially in the ventilation system which was a frikkin' nightmare to go through. etc, etc etc.

I really wanted to enjoy the game, too. It sounded so cool.

[Zeruckiven]

despite the rating on this game, i was pretty young when i played it. probably my 1st FPS too. i was like 7 i think lol

[Sarcyarvix]

5:11 is a little...'suggestive' isn't it? xD

[tabrismacbeth]

I knew D2 borrowed a few characters from this game, but...they borrowed THAT scene, too? I heard the ultra suggestive tentacle scene in D2 was cut, but the video might still be at IGN.

-Tabris

[Sannela26]

ugggh im getting the feeling that this game is starting to feel like a Torture Porn game than survival horror

[LTstudios]

well this is just a ripoff of alien

[carnagerie]

Thank you!, I enjoyed watching this more than any alien movie after 1997.

[db040773]

This is one of the worst games I played.

About everything sucks: idiot saving system, stupid weapons and ultra slow gameplay. Not to mention the boring level design with miles of empty hallways.

[tabrismacbeth]

Typical. Gamers nowadays are such whiny pansies.

-Tabris

[LouAu]

thankyou for sharing this precious clip, it makes me remember the good games from 90's. When I was playing this game, the most annoying is not the limited amount of saving slot or the invisible enemy that approach suddenly upon you, but the disturbing beeping noise makes my mind go nuts.

[Defstryk]

Somebody please tell me what's the purpose of having an emergency escape tunnel that's longer than the total length of the ship itself...Cripes, she must have gone around and around and around a million times before she got out!

[carnagerie]

Longer?, the ship is huuuuuge!, the exit was probably 15% of the ship's length.

[johnnyteres]

The Saturn ripped the PSX a new one on the hardware front. Just the facts. While the PSuX could do better 3D, the Saturn was a 2D monster with way better movies and cut-scenes.

[geddoe316]

and yet, it bombed.....

[Warmachine300]

yeah man. it was the same as playstation graphic wise.

[arranmc182]

Warmachine300 the saturn could do better graphics than the play station because it had 3 CPU's in ot and a faster GPU that the Playstation but the saturn was very hard to program for thats why there was not as menty games on the system

[ViciousAlienKlown]

I use to have this game and wish I had kept it along with a ton of other games.

[maxwolf12]

i miss this game too. its scary and limit game saving

[G5Blue]

Why WARP only created 3 games?

[carnagerie]

Well, apart from wanting quality, not quantity, the main guy (forgot his name) felt he had done what he wanted in video games and moved on to other art media. But perhaps they are just waiting for inspiration in vgs.

[drunkensailor112]

they made like 15 games, but most stayed in japan

[yaoi1976]

Ahh I still have this beauty and play it every now and then. I remember showing my friend how to play it and him throwing the controller once he got killed. The intense dinging got to him..haha!

[ashwath123]

KOOOOOL neva knew dat da Saturn Had such decent grafix 4 its time
