  • Have you ever played the PCE version of this game, known as Tatsujin? I was just wondering how both versions compare.

  • @Chantumon I have as a matter of fact and it's MUCH more arcade accurate, though it's borderline impossible. The other problem with the PCE version is the price tag associated with it. The cheapest I've ever seen a copy of it run was about $70-80!

    To be honest, I still prefer the Genesis version. It's much more enjoyable.

  • I was just reminiscing about old shooters and stumbled upon this. I lost my cartridge many years ago but i remember how asskickingly awesome it was. As for underwhelming; whatever ! When I was 6 graphics and sound like this were absolutely amazing. Remember the TwinBee graphics? Gunsmoke? This game totally trumps those (but i still own and adore them) Maybe its just my preference for the more sci-fi driven games.

    Anywho, I would find you doing reviews of retro games lol. Great vids/reviews!

  • @earphoria Agreed dude! Well, I guess it was a bit different for me since I was a bit older back then, and was also playing a lot of TG16 at the time too. :D

    Oh, and Gun.Smoke RULES!

  • Did it ever get a relese on one of the later consols?

    MVHH

  • @HarriHaffi I'm not sure. I'll have to check the Virtual Console on the Wii, though I'm pretty sure it's not up there.

  • great review i actually dont have this game but i have played it. looks liike ill be making a stop down at my local game store to try and get a copy. great review Bracey. BGR

  • Excellent review, Bracey! The intro was awesome! I've never played Truxton but have heard great things about it. LOL @ 1:16! That's exactly how I feel when I play a frustrating game. Glad to hear it's got a great soundtrack. That's a cool tip about pausing the game after dropping a bomb. I didn't realize it can be had for $10. I'll definitely have to add it to my collection.

see all
