It's also being developed by treasure. The only thing that could make me happier is if I could find the toe-rag who robbed my original Gunstar Heroes and beat the living **** out of him.

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!

This was one hell of a game, frantic isn't a good enough word.

2 Player multi would also be fantastic!

Gunstar Heros was class. I remember staying up one night and battling my way through the entire game (a real achievement seeing as they were the days I never finished games).

I must actually go dig it out and no I didn't rob it on you Retr0gamer

That was an absolutely stellar game, I remember seriously wondering whether to save up for a mega drive just for that game....ah, memories...

OH THANK GOD!

i really like gunstar heroes...one of my all time favs (and yes like retro my copy got nicked too)

Retr0gamer

I remember seeing it on Gamesmaster and the reviewers really getting worked up about how it was such a brilliant game. I was blown away but at the same time saying to myself 'typical, another excellent game for the SNES'. Never realised it was the Mega Drive running since it just looked so damn good. I bought it immediately when I found out.

A video from 1up was posted on the eurogamer forums:

Looks sweet, can't wait to see how well it ports to the GBA, it would be pretty cool if they were to bring out a new dynamite heddy as well....but I think that's asking too much.

i'm dragging this topic back up because i've just watched some videos of it in action on IGN here:

It looks absolutely amazing. In fact I think I had an orgasm during it so i'm off to check my pants.

honru

I can't f***ing wait for this.

And with all this talk of new consoles... psh...

Lord Oz

w00t!

Citizen_Erased

OMG... Thats the game - I could not remember it for the life of me. It is my gaming heritage and my earliest gaming memory is that game on the sega. Sweet sweet sweet .... I can finally track a copy of it down now. Seriously , cant type , too overjoyed , w00t w00t w00t

Retr0gamer

Yep. It's one of the few games that come along every so often and remind you just why you love videogames.

Citizen_Erased

Yeah , I'm gonna a buy a copy for my megadrive of ebay real soon. Ah , good auld nostalgia.... it's like I've been reunited with a lost family member

Maynard.

Oh great. Have to shell out for a gba..

Oh btw, Green is the greatest video game character of all time!
If hes not in the new ver there will be war.

BlitzKrieg

BOOM



sorry that was my brain exploding from the sight of that boss...i'll just go get the mop...(continues to stare at video)

Lex_Diamonds

Contra except harder core! Thats what im thinking from seeing that IGN vid. I really liked the boss fight at the end there.

Retr0gamer

Well it's by the same team that made all the contra games up to and including Contra 3 (there is also a rumour that Konami hired them for the equally excellent Contra hard corps for MD).

BlitzKrieg

contra hard corps rocked! OH THE SO MANY MULTIPLE ENDINGS i still dont know if i got them all...or which one is the ultimate ultimate super ending. (i know i got all the way out to space a few times...)

Retr0gamer

There were 4 and another ending if you found the secret level in stage 3. I remember the ending when the last level was on a giant rocket firing into space took me a good 2 months to get good enough to reach. That game was fantastic. It's in my top 5 MD games with gunstar heroes, rocket knight adventures, shining force 2 and phantasy star 4.

BlitzKrieg

never got into phantasy star...but your other top games i agree with...Rocket Knight alos had numerous endings i remember...But the sequel Sparkstar was insane...change the difficulty and the whole game changed.

Retr0gamer

Was really looking forward to sparkster and was really disappointed. It was more that they completely changed the gameplay. Every level of Rocket Knight Adventures played a little or very differently from every other level. Sparkster never varied gameplay drastically and had some awfully shoddy design. It was made by a completely different team. The SNES version was decent but nowhere near as good as RKA.
