I did a review of this game some years ago. Felt like I was a lil too positive with the game after hearing other people's opinion on it. I suppose it's because I managed to adapt to the awkwardness of the controls rather quickly. There are obviously quite a few missions that can get you better vehicles, but would have been nice if there was a bonus mission that let you play as the Martians, destroying everything in your path as I feel like that would be a worthy reward for finishing the game. Be nice if one day this game got a remake with improved controls and some better missions to keep it interesting.

Humans with tanks in a WotW game is pretty odd, given that the Martian war machines were predictions of tanks becoming part of warfare, decades before actual tanks made an appearance. But if they can't set a WotW movie in the correct era then expecting it from a game is maybe too much. I still have the twin-CD version of the musical in my car, since that's the only place I have a CD player now. :)

I haven't played this game but I love the music album. I would love it if someone would make a modern day third person shooter around it, where you're shooting, exploding and bayonetting Martians with WOI equipment in London.

Great video man. Really interesting to see. You have a point about old controls. These days control systems are so standardised in 3d games that playing older stuff, even with games you played as a kid, is like driving a car with the pedals the wrong way round.

I've never seen this game be played. Thank you so much for covering it. Brilliant review.

You could click left or right + the attack button if the enemy is moving to the side. Or crouch+attack for bigger damage. Crouch+X is the quick turn for Tenchu. Up.up+X for double jumps, up,up+square for stabbing, you can get your enemies at a disadvantage with that. I love this game very much, Top 1 really. As well as Metal Gear Solid, specially MGS3 (top 2). The stealth in this ok for me, as I could go back and forth with being stealthy or not, as with MGS. What I'm not ok is the ones on Splinter Cell. Only played one game, so my view on it may be wrong too.

Yo thanks for making these playthroughs

rest video James. Desert strike and its sequels always fascinated me but at the time I just found it too hard. Luckily a friend of mine was good at it and years later 8 got to watch him beat it on an emulator. I like your style of taking the viewer through the game giving a feel of how it would be to play

Played that non stop

I used to play this game so much.

Adored this game and still remember the elation I had as a kid upon completing mission one. Got the itch to play this game thanks to this video. Never played with From Above controls so think I’m gonna give that a bash. Cracking vid! ❤

How tall is he from the bottom of his feet to the top of his head? In other words, what's his height without the rubble and base (so just the figure itself)?

I spent so much time with this game. Another one that we rented so many times that we might as well have bought it several times lol! Thanks, this was the first result that was related to what I was trying to find!

❤❤Amazing Retro 👌🥂🔥♥️

Great video, love the background info before the game to give context.

My Dad picked out a copy of Snatcher at a tiny second-hand electronics store when I was 14 ( ~1998). We played the game for months, figuring out secrets etc, which became some of my fondest *memories growing up. The game really shaped how I viewed the world, but I was always perplexed why no one seemed to know of it, ha. It's obviously dated by today's standards, but I agree a re-release would probably still be well received. Enjoyed the video 👍.

Great video. Very informative. I like how the second half is a bit like a "lets play" covering you experience of playing a game

Nice collection! 🎮 😯

I was there back in the day. The magazine's sold me on the game massively so I asked for it for months. However I couldn't get past those damn foxes so I'm glad you had the same issues. I probably ended up trading this game for a pittance, I wish I'd kept it.

Cracking video, man. You really gave a feel what it was like to play. I suppose the big reason it went so successful was due to the physical nature of games. These days we can download quirky indie games for about 15 to 25 pounds. Back in those days it was all physical and and you had to pay for the cartridge, so something like this would be the same price as a major AAA release. Therefore only a few people with money to burn would take a risk on something they didn't immediately understand

I still have this game on ps1. I remember discovering it for the first time on a ps1 demo disc in the 90’s. Really cool game.

I found the shinji Ikari rising project at my local library when I was younger and I opened it up to see what it’s about and I found full on boobs.😭

Thanks for the review. Super informative! I take some issues with the Polymega, a laundry list ultimately and $550 for the base unit takes it beyond being an enthusiast vs casual discussion for me in my opinion. I'm an enthusiast and the product isn't anywhere good enough for what they're asking. There are other solutions that ultimately play the games it does better and/or cheaper. It's a casual extremely flawed product wrapped in a non-casual price tag surrounded with bad customer service.

I had just finished this model, and was wondering if you knew what those extra pieces were? Mainly 25, 116 and 117 i believe? And that clear stand i couldnt quite figure out even with a translator. Thanks in advance! I know this is an older video, but if you see this i would be grateful!

Great unboxing, thank you for sharing!

Wow, there us a really high density if mean/nasty comments here. I was just looking for something to listen to as I go for a run and want to learn more about Polymega because I was considering buying one of their 6 button PCE controllers. Great video.

Is there a regular Kiryu model kit? Also what about a repaint based on EVA unit 2?

I really enjoyed that. It looks like a good game. Im rubbish at anything strategic so i enjoyed seeing what you could do with it

Polygarbage

You should try the fan games out. I made Bane of Oakenshade and currently slowly working on a short sequel. There's heaps of KF games to dive into.

Love it! Looks great! I was thinking I might not plug in the saucer impulse engines because they are never lit up when the Enterprise isn’t separated. You know what, I just had a thought, if the LEDs are clear I might use them to boost some of the brightness of the more dimly lit windows. I found yesterday that whacking them up against the bottom of the panels, with a bit of PVC tape, they do give a boost of light to the saucer lights, as they are far from uniform. Great vid though! What a journey!

I have the main three soundtrack cds special edition with the extra booklets and slipcase, im no completionist so i don't care much about the other cds but they come cheap even the special editions if you know were to look for

Thanks for this. 🙂 I can definitely see how this grew into their future games. Great to discover where this all started.

Avoid this product. My base console was faulty straight out of the box…infinite boot loop upon first start up. After weeks, Playmaji responded to my emails with a shipping label to perform a repair, but this “solution”was no longer acceptable to me. (Send me a new unit and I’ll mail the faulty one back…you didn’t have a problem receiving my payment, did you?) Since requesting a refund for the faulty console (within 30 days of arrival) I have heard nothing from the company. Playmaji: please honor the return policy you list on your website. If the product worked out of the box, I wouldn’t have to complain on RUclips channels. With customer service so seemingly low, their warranty and refund policies are worthless and not to be relied upon.

I've seen some footage of King's Field 4 and to be honest other than graphics it still has the same gameplay by the look of it. Loved the video as well mate, well done.

Nice one dude. I'd be interested to see how you get on later in the game

I grew up on King’s Field and I’ve loved the first two American releases. I’ve also love Demons Souls and Dark Souls. I just recently realized that From Software made both series. I plan the play the Japanese King’s Field very soon since the first game wasn’t release in America.

You spent $500 on poop lol

where can i get one i really want to put my older systems up

Has anyone tried connecting an external hard drive to the console instead of using the internal option? I’m surprised that they didn’t put a 3rd USB Port in the back of the console. It would be nice if it played Sega Dreamcast games too.

Another transformative review

im not too convinced by the emulation tbh its very VERY pixelated and the n64 emulation is the worst i have seen its just an upscaled 240p signal and it looks like your watching through a screen door, i really hope they can make the games look a little better via updates, plus theres issues mine makes a strange audio noise from time to time and it randomly crashes or restarts, the theres the build quality which is questionable, its not worth £400 plus imo thats ps5 territory, i do however like the UI and the fact that its trying to be an "all in one"

Im old, and have never understood the appeal of the whole Nintendo thing, we grew up on how realistic the graphics looked, to me Mario bros etc cartoonish aspect of the aesthetics of Nintendo... just couldn't get into, I liked megadrive though and ps1, but each to their own, great video.

Wish it wasn't just an emulation box, but i do like the design, the pads are nice too and can be used on original hardware, along with the nice Emulation Station/Launchbox like UI and the fact that you can back up your games. It's what the Retron5 should have been. But in this day and age, i would prefer something like an FPGA clone or original hardware or a cheaper emulation product. A product like this doesn't really set it self apart. Better options like og hardware with a scaler, like the RetroTinks or the OSSC, the Raspberry Pi or a PC, Analogue, Retroid, Evercade, Miyo Mini, the many Anbernic products, Mister FPGA or even the Switch OLED could be had for less.

im a purist I guess. if im going to play retro games, might as well go all they. I prefer original hardware with a crt whenever possible or just use an emulator if I can't. this isnt for me. Kinda seems like a weird compromise, especially for the money.

Pre or post trans?

just another company that doesn't have the b**ls to put on a simple cartridge version of the edition of kirby where he get his gf pregant...i am so sick of how many youtubers won't talk about this! like oh ok it didn't even happen? lmao...nice try

Polymega is garbage

I speak for myself obviously as this is my personal account, but thanks for the video. I think you will see a constant and consistent improvement in our CS and social engagement. I'm really glad you are enjoying your Polymega.

Thanks for the video. The system looks great and plays great. Appreciate the heads up about the negatives.
