Review - Bio-Hazard Battle (Sega Genesis)

[SwerveStarEx]

Your idea of the story is close, but a couple details are off. The "alien infection" was caused by a biological weapon that was made in a war that wiped out virtually all life on the planet (Avaron). You're actually going back to the planet in the distant future to look for inhabitable land.

I LOVED this game as a kid. It was my first SHMUP. ^^ It seems easy now that I've played Touhou, but it still holds a special place in my heart.

@SwerveStarEx This is the game me and my cousin burnt his Genesis out on.

FUCK THAT THIRD LEVEL!

[seanmitchell88]

i used to rent this game every couple months when i was a kid, i loved this game. 

[ZycaLaser]

The idea of re-entering atmosphere in the first stage and the music on it really hyped me when i played this. I guess i was 12 or so. By those days it seemed a game a bit crappy beacuse no 1 knew about it, but i got fascinated anyway. Twenty years after that, my veredict is that this amazing game was a step, *BUT* only A STEP away from being a rival for i.e. thunderforce IV. Maybe a deepest plot, a few cinematics, and a bit of commercial love (the artwork in the box & main screen is awful..)

[Metalitron12]

This game is fuckin reat. Definitely a must have for anybody with a Genesis.

[Bloodreign1]

Got this one awhile back for my Genesis, great creepy atmosphere, and quite underrated. The entire game has a nice organic feel to it, a break from the usual mechanical level shmups.

[kenbefound]

Is the Wii Virtual console version 2 player as well?

[HarriHaffi]

Nice video!

MVHH

[Gumruk]

I have such fond memories of this game.. used to play it over my best friends' house. Thanks for reviewing a classic!

[TheRatm1234]

nice reveiw man keep it up

[insaner2play]

O.O THANK YOU!!!

This is the game that got me into Shmups, but I could never remember the name. And now I know it's on the Virtual Console, YES! Thanks so much for having this up, that's another game off my "Can't Remember" list.

[googlefish80]

I am not trying to say the game sucks but the first time i played this game i thought the first boss was a log of shit.

[Scioneer]

The blue bubbles are pretty powerful against bosses.

[Weedwhackers25]

OHHH yeah the music is awesome for Sega...laser is the best

[snkjack]

bought this for 98 cents..very cool!

[SkankinDevil89]

i saw it for five bucks at a comic book store and ive never seen this game before but with a name like biohazard battle, i had to get it

[kingstonlj]

Excellent review. Biohazard Battle is an awesome shooter that delivers a very distinct, grippping experience. I love the organic, creepy looking visuals, and the sound is perfectly strange and infectious.

Thanks for highlighting such a great game.

[Stijnvanmele]

If you love the music, look up Psytrance :) I used to play this game a lot when I was about 10 years old and listening to Pystrance nowadays always reminded me of this game, you'll love it!

[MagicMasterY]

[WaxHeadroom]

Hey Pete you should do more retro reviews like this one. Extremely well done review. Have you ever played Wings of Wor for the Sega Genesis?

[masterkill107]

well the game is impossible in the hardest mode

[sunburstX]

It is an awesome game.

[PinapplesNmore]

This looks really awesome and sort of reminds me of R-Type despite of some of the obvious differences.

[JamieBarnes11]

This game looks pretty good. Hadn't heard of it before. I think I'll grab a copy off ebay. Thanks for the review.

[mariohenri]

Awesome review. I love retro shooting games! This looks really fun.

[Hdogg]

can you review a master system game because i remember having it way back when and there was this one game i played where you start on land in a car and shot things and then it eventually turns straight into a plane...i believe it scrolled vertically... any idea what it is?

[AngelOfDeath1897]

Hey, Sweet review!

If you could reccomend an older system (like the genesis, N64 etc..) which would it be? thx/...
