Classic Game Room HD - FIRE SHARK for Sega Genesis review

Classic Game Room was the FIRST classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999. Returning in 2008 with new episodes, Classic Game Room breaks out a review of FIRE SHARK for the Sega Genesis 16 Bit Mega Drive video game console system. This SHMUP vertical scrolling shooter on the Megadrive is a very fun and challenging airplane shooter. You pilot a biplane against an enemy with all kinds of weapons, tanks, battleships and gun turrets. Your FIRESHARK is the amazing fire-based weapon that spews beams of red hire fire all over the screen and wipes out the enemies. Fireshark is a good game but not as good as MUSHA or Thunder Force III in our opinion. However it is a cheap game and easy to pick up on ebay. Fire Shark is like a maniac shooter and is as much fun as many of the core shmups like Raiden 3 or Ikaruga with excellent controls, power ups and gameplay. The footage shows teh game off nicely, even though the graphics are a bit sub par on the Genny. This probably is not a title we're expecting to see on PS3, Xbox 360 Live Arcade or Wii any time soon. Made by Toaplan for the Genesis. Be sure to watch the original Classic Game Room episodes. Classic Game Room was the original classic video game review show on the Internet in 1999-2000, now on DVD. The HD series is reviewing PS3, PS2, Genesis, NES, Atari and Xbox 360. XBLA. videos review reviews show wii

The second he started talking about when he would make his vertical shooter I was like "Oh my. This is when the magic happened."

i was trying to find how many copies were sold and how much the game is actually worth I have it and love it i just wanna know out of curiosity not to many people that iknow have even heard of it .

Lovely game, you can see its a Toaplan jobbie, also its a definete influence of Battle Garrega and Bakraid.. In 1990 when you see those massive laser beams stretching across the screen and then UPGRADING you are definetely impressed.. And what a soundtrack!

This seems like a updated (back then) "River Raid" to me.

Me and my friend used to play the crap out of this game. My god that music kicks ass! And that flamethrower powerup is the best weapon ever.
