    Tool-free gameplay on default settings (medium difficulty). Score 921 380.
    Clumsy playthrough, lot's of room to improve for a decent score run. Atm though I'm content to be able to finish the game on 1 credit.
    When I got to try this the first time at a local gas station in the early 90s it blew me completely away. Hadn't seen anything remotely like it before. Shooting up limps from aliens and pumping grenades to their stomachs, just unreal at the time. Made me sad that I didn't have lots of money to spend and they soon replaced it with a more generic game I don't remember anymore. Space Gun is still my favorite "Gun" game. -

    This game had "strategic dismember" much before Dead space was a thing. I remember shooting at their legs for "insta-kills" and at the arm they were rising to avoid the hit. That's why I never went pass the third or fourth stage, when the mobs didn't have legs or arms, lol.

    I've been searching and looking for this game for a long time and finally found it!! I remember playing this game back in the 90s but forgot the name of it. I remember was you shoot out these blue oval shaped bullets and I remember, the arcade game itself had these two weird looking guns mounted on it and bam!! its Space Gun. At first I thought it was Alien 3 the Gun but not a chance lol. Revolution X, Terminator 2 Judgement Day, Lethal Enforcers 1 and 2, Time Crisis I and II, Space Gun, Alien 3 The Gun, Crime Patrol, Area 51, Maximum Force, Mad Dog McGree, Steel Gunner, so many great legendary gun arcade games from the 90s. I'm going to hook up the MAME later and play this classic.

    • @LordNothing
      @LordNothing 7 лет назад +3

      Well, I don't know if you played this arcade back in the days, but the thing is that the Final Boss at 19:58 is really really difficult! and the main reason is because you don't have to shoot that much to the control desk at the background, so you have to be very precise. The alternate ending that I am mentioning is on 24:35, where you can see that the player conciously shot at the control desk of the shuttle and then explodes.
      Actually, back in the days, I never saw the true ending, because it was bery difficult to reach that level, and even more difficult do not shoot at the back.

      @@fromdabunka one thing was the sounds, it really captured the feeling of wandering into an abandoned space station overrun with monsters. You could hear the alien's footsteps and seeing them come out of the darkness was pretty scary the first time you saw it in the arcade. It was also pretty advanced from a graphics perspective, at that time there was not many other dark sci fi shooters, the rest were all based on military themes. So the details on the aliens and when their body parts explode it gave it a kind of realistic feeling.

    One of my absolute, if not The favorite arcade game of mine in the 90’s! A water park I used to frequent had it, and I pumped a lot of my $$ into it every single visit there. It was very much inspired by the Aliens movie, and that being another fav of mine, it was the perfect transition to a game for me. I would Highly consider purchasing it if I found a real working arcade version with the gun if I could find it somewhere.
    I was just thinking about it and couldn’t remember the name, so did a deep google search to find it. Thanks for posting this!!

    I remember seeing this machine at the my old local arcade. The machine was placed right next to Alien 3 The Gun. Back then, i was scared of those two games that i dare not to go near them. I only saw someone else playing it, it was pretty unique since the player steps on the pedal to backtrack momentarily to avoid enemy attack. It took me until many years to play it for the first time. I was glad to do so because my young self would not sit well with the gore

    Not bad for a _Aliens_ ripoff that was also released the same year that Konami made an video game adaptation of _Aliens_ . One thing I hated about this game is that the targeting seems to be off when trying to take out the big, hulking extraterrestrials. You can shoot several shots at them that won't connect, and yet they can almost always get an attack off on you. Coincidentally, three years later, Sega would make an arcade adaptation of _Alien 3_ called _Alien 3: The Gun_ , which was rails light-gun shooter that was basically a rip-off of _Space Gun_ .
