Well, the game looks fun, but despite being in three dimensions, this Sinistar is just not scary at all. His voice sounds silly, and while the arcade game is pants-wettingly fast, this just seems to drag. It looks cool, but it just doesn't have the impact of the original.
This sort of chillout Eurotechno is usually music I love, but it doesn't really go good for this game, maybe another space shooter but not Sinistar. Also Sinistar's new voice sucks, should have used the master recordings from the original game.
It also doesn't help that this battle was really drawn out, where as in the original game you'd be eaten within a minute after Sinistar appears (if you're lucky to last that long).
@SwordsmanMercenary in deep space floated a loose cloud of pure badassery. Over time, gravity pulled the cloud into a dense mass, which then congealed into Sinistar.
I like the way Sinistar sounds in the original Arcade... This one just doesn't sound as intimidating as the original. Since their using the same phrases, couldn't they have used the same voice?
@PharohAmonKhan Alas John Doremus, original voice of Sinistar, died in 1995; four years before this game's release. Not sure how much earlier than the first planning stages of the game that might have been, but there you go.
Have to say, this isn't nearly as scary as the original. I think the 8-bit sound contributed to the scariness, and when you remove that it just sounds silly.
The reason this sinistar seems like such a wuss is perhaps because BloodFuzi0n has actually got GOD MODE ON!!!!! At no point does anything actually hurt him... at all!
also, this game can be rather difficult, especially this level. I'd rather not have to record this like 10 times. you can't replay this level if you die you lose the game (because its a "bonus" level, why idk)
the game doesn't make it very clear (to me at least) but from what I understand the Sporg serve the Distilled Evil who want them to help build hyperspace gates that will bring their ultimate weapons in (sinistars) to destroy the terrans (or well...you).
I wish I knew, game developers these days seem to like making noob friendly trash rather than games that actually take some degree of skill to play, and the space combat games seem to have been abandoned. It saddens me to no end.
The first Sinistar was way better, just because Sinistar himself sounded awsome as hell. I am Sinistar, Run Run Run!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!
Well because I like to keep my crystal supply up. Especially at the end of this guy, as he blasts all the asteroids away after you reduce him to the point he will die in 1 more bomb.
I must admit this guy is a bit disappointing. His voice isn't awful I think but not as good as the first, I do like his looks however, though he could have been a little larger, but as for fighting him, he barely did anything :(. What happened to the good old days (and nights) when kids played this and had the threat of being eaten by him?
I've got to say, I've never played this game before, but... the new Sinistar voice is pretty awful. He sounds more like some kind of cartoony robot pirate than anything else.
By the way, are there any videos of the other Sinistar bosses in this game?
This Sinistar is fucked up, all he can do is annoy you and pull you in, he cant even eat you like the original unless you fly right right into his frigin mouth and try to get eaten! he cant even attack, wont follow you for long distances and his tractor beam only pulls you right into his face so you have to look at his poorly made face, that isnt even close to the original art, puls his voice is all gimpy, like when he says run run run, it sound like he is a red neck =/ (Er-run Er-run Er-run)
Guess the developers figured it would be gay if he could insta-kill you (seeing that if you die, you gotta restart, or in the case of bonus levels like this one is for some reason, you only get 1 chance)
Well anyway, I've seen the original and out of the other 20 (I think) he looks the most like him.
Interesting using the plates he had in the original being protective armor here. Here's an interesting question.....does the Sinstar serve the Distilled Evil, or does the Distilled Evil serve the Sinstar?
Why does Sinistar sound like Hulk Hogan...
