A Hidden Gem Gunstar Heros 💎😊
I doubt you do requests
But there's these two 3Ds crossover games I really like
I used to play the demo of the first game over and over again
They're called Project X Zone and Project X Zone 2.
Apparently there's more games to the story that are under the "Capcom X Techmo" name I think.
I still need to finish PXZ2 and I also need to get my hands on PXZ1
I love how Cuphead took some inspiration from this game for some bosses.
If I may, I can't recommend enough going and getting a pair of 8bitdo M30 controllers if you love playing Genesis, as the M30 made my Sega Genesis gameplay on Switch quite genuine. Gunstar Heroes, Contra: Hard Corps and Streets of Rage 3 don't feel right without a Genesis controller. Thank the Heavens the Switch can't tell that 8bitdo controllers aren't Nintendo Pro Controllers, as you can set a custom button arrangement just for your Sega Genesis Collection or Switch Expansion Pass Genesis games!
An old favorite. I found out about this game in 2002.
You all need to buy the 3DS port of this game. It is the best version
Dude, why was the bespoke ad 3:30 minutes long? I don't have a problem with ads, but that was excessive.
Also colonel red looks like M. Bison for whatever reason
I know it's how you do things, but it took almost 6 minutes to get to the main content in this video, I can't imagine thats good for the youtube algorithm
I remember playing this game on the Genesis. Melon Bread was weird but the worst space in the dice maze is one where you can't use any of the guns. It's in the video at 11:30. This game was great.
Melon Bread actually does damage, but only if you wait around for a while. He's usually dead before he does anything.
Thanks 🙏
Gunstar Heroes has amazing music… like, it gets you in the mood for playing it every single time…
Also, the main villain was called General Grey in the original, which makes more sense, considering Red is also already the name of one of the main characters… no idea why they changed that…
I think me and my friends must have played nearly all the good games on snes and genesis via emulation around 1998-1999.
Good times being able to play all the games we couldn’t afford as kids
That's awesome you and Proton Jon played Gunstar Hereoes again and it's a great video game and it's one of my favorite video games on Super Nintendo and I love the video
Oh man I loved this game when I was young
I work at a forge. During the summer we all have so many Popsicles. I'm going to get a grape one…. mmmmm
Treasure has a high quality in most of their games, not to mention they are what people consider a company with games that are classified as casual gamer killers.
🙂
Two of my favorite platforming shooting games are this one and Sunset Riders one I remember playing in elementary and middle school regularly the other is one I constantly looked for the arcade machine when ever I found it I would be there until out of quarters
I know you already did the HD version but I think it would still be a good idea to do a review of Sonic Unleashed for Wii/PS2, I've been trying to figure out which one is harder to complete, but I don't have both. IMO from what I know from your review I think the Wii version is much harder, in order to complete all the levels, you NEED all the collectables
ANOTHER NEW INTRO?!
Its one of my absolute favorite games of all time. The music, the characters, the action, the originality of boss fights, its amazing!
I don't know what possessed you to put a 3 minute sponsorship ad at the beginning of your video, but I hope they pay was worth it because wtf
This is honestly the very first time I've ever seen Proton Jon's face.
I played this a while back on Switch for the first time, with only passive knowledge of it. I fell in love with the game, even though it was a bit of a challenge for me so I got a lot of use out of the rewind feature lol. I didn't get to try out co-op unfortunately, but I could tell it'd be a fun time. It's a bit disappointing this series was so short-lived, just the original game and a gba sequel, outside of ports.
