MSX - SD Snatcher - file 09: Randam Hajile

Deep down inside the abandoned apartment complex Gillian finally catches up with Purnet, Gibson's killer. Revenge will have to wait, though, as Purnet runs off, leaving a deadly trap for Gillian.

Here we meet Randam Hajile, bounty hunter, who will join Gillian throughout the game in his investigation to find the Snatchers' base. In the intro video I already mentioned that Kojima loves Hollywood movies and based the Snatcher universe on that of the movie "Bladerunner". Random Hajile looks a lot like a character from that movie: the android Roy Batty, played by Rutger Hauer. Another reference is a character from the scifi movie Dune, played by Sting; Randam's suit even looks the same.

@drunkensailor112 They killed him in a factory in the Sega CD version. You meet the murderers in an appartment. Is that what you are thinking of?

I love the chibi look of gillian haha

This is just a spinoff of the original SNATCHER, the SegaCD remake was very similar to the original excepting the inclusion of voices and the third act.

[drunkensailor112]

wow this game is alot different from the remade snatcher for sega cd. even the story seems a little bit different. like the person who killed gibson was a men and a girl in an apartment in that game and here it is in some sort of factory

[Blavlahoemzaza]

Best game ever!!

Bryan Fury from the Tekken series looks a lot like Roy Batty. Bryan is a cyborg so I'm guessing it was intentional.
