I really don't want to appear ungrateful, but that list is, technically, only eighty-two games. What about the other eighteen?
By the way, that's an amazing "Top 82" list!
Oh man. This brings back bitter memories for me. I loved the movie as a kid, so I remember renting this game and immediately being met with the hard difficulty. Normally that would mean that I wouldn't get far in the game but eventually something clicked and I was able to make some major progress in the game. I vividly recall making it all the way to the final boss, Ra. It was unimaginably tough but I think I finally figured out the trick to beating him. But my parents told me that it was time to go to my church's youth group. I didn't want to go obviously, but my parent's didn't care. So I paused the game and turned off the TV with plans to finish the bastard when I got home an hour or so later. I get home and turn on the TV only to find the game completely reset. Turns out that there had been a power surge in the neighborhood which turned off everything in the house briefly. Yes, there was a password but if I recall, the password took me back all the way to a super difficult part that I had to beat again before I could get back to Ra. And it was difficult enough that I either didn't want to go through it again or I simply didn't have enough time to play through it all again. In the end, I never beat the game and that has forever haunted me.
ahh man that sucks. not game related, but it reminded me of when i made 2 copies of my harddrive because i had files i wanted to keep, but my dad didnt know i already copied them... so he puts in the other drive to copy it over and a storm fried both of them... sigh. i was able to eventually recover most of thr contents but one video that i really miss was forever lost
God Church sucked when all you wanted to do is play a video game lmao 🤣
one little thing i loved as a kid was that you couldn't see the bullets. that was some realism i hadn't seen before in 2d sidescrollers.
also on Earthworm Jim
@@l30S3UX true!
Man - definitely need to re-watch Stargate , love some old sci fi !
rewatched it the other day....still good
"old" lmao
@@partywolf85 25 years young then :)
I loved this movie! You're making me nostalgic bro. Now I'm gonna have to force my girlfriend to watch it with me.
I watch the show regularly, sometimes every night on Comet.
It uses the same engine as Judge Dredd and Demolition Man.
I believe it's the same as the Jurassic Park 2 game, as well. I recognize the character movements.
But wasn't Demolition Man developed by a different studio?
Or Jurassic Park 2 for that matter?
This game reminds me of the Alien3 game.
Oh wow
It's odd, I never think about older games like these having different engines like modern games. Probably because it wasn't as much of a topic, at least it didn't seem like one until Unreal Tournament came out and then I started hearing about things being made with Unreal.
😅👍
SNESDrunk always seems to upload about 15 minutes after I wake up and I love it.
SNESDrunk is best with morning coffee. He has a soothing calm voice perfect for the morning.
I really appreciate how your videos are short and to the point not 23 minutes delves into minutia
The movie is still worth watching. I was shocked by how good it still is. I liked how the Alien world didn't speak English at all. (Although they got around it by basing it off of a defunct ancient human language.) You'd never see that in a modern movie unless it were directed by Mel Gibson.
Just wanted to say, I love your scripts. I'm a full time writer of all kinds of content, and I find myself hearing your voice in my head while I write recently. More concise. More punch. Great approach to video essays.
That is high praise, thank you
Looks & feels like a hybrid between the Star Wars Snes' series & the Flashback/Blackthorne/Another World trilogy (well, or Nosferatu or Prince Of Persia).
A little bit like Judge Dredd?
I actually used to read that issue of Nintendo Power when I was a kid, which I remember checking out at a library in my old hometown! :D
I’m surprised that this never got released on SEGA CD or Saturn. It would’ve been cool to see cutscenes from the movie play out in-between each level and include redbook audio.
I just picked up a complete copy of this game for 7 bucks on Sega Genesis and for that price it's a pretty decent action game. The enemies are bullet sponges so grenades will be your best choice to traverse this alternate universe. I do agree that the controls are wonky and it led to a lot of frustrating moments where I'm getting lit up by an enemy because they keep stopping my duck animation when I get attacked so you have to be ready smash down on that D-Pad when those situations arise. The game indeed drags on for way too long and I actually still haven't beaten the final boss because he is the biggest bullet sponges of them all.
Man, this game... I got it as a teenager when it was new, as my parents and I are all sci-fi fans, and, while I did beat and enjoy it, it was a test of patience as well. You captured that very strongly in this review.
Being a StarGate Fan i had this on the SNES and i freaking loved it so much different stuff to do! i really enjoyed it!
I remember playing this game when I was young. This game was made by Probe Entertainment - which later became Acclaim Studios London. After this game was released, years later, other Stargate games alongside Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis TV series were made, but the Stargate SG-1 one (The Alliance) was never released. ( Stargate Worlds was a short lived MMO btw alongside Stargate Resistance)
I love the rope climbing animation. It looks like he's deep thrusting on the rope.
One of the best SNESDrunk's recommendations. This game is so much underrated!
I had this game growing up and loved it. Funny thing is I didn’t actually see the movie until this year! I liked it but remember being a bit disappointed that the Horus Guards and Ra weren’t as badass/terrifying as they were in the game.
This game looks and feels more like alien 3 by probe than super star wars, cept for the glider levels which look like super star wars speeder levels
Indeed.
Yeah, and it's a good game, which the Star Wars ones aren't.
I really like this game. I missed 1 important item and didn't get the good ending. I had no motivation to try it again when I was a kid, but as an adult, I'm tempted to go through it.
Kurt Russell was great in Tombstone.
Skin it i said skin it skin that smoke wagon
Not as good as Val Kilmer was...I’m your huckleberry”
@@chrisbarrett8377 you right he was awesome in that roll
Most kids wanted to be a cop or an astronaut when they got older.. I wanted to be Kurt Russell.
Who?
And I hope you have a great rest of YOUR day!
As a fan of the ENTIRE franchise, the original film included, I certainly would play it. I'm just learning about all the SNES games as I plan on getting an original system and a few games. I'm putting together a list and definitely going to add this game to it....
The SNES is one of MANY systems I bypassed when I was younger.
Thanks for introducing me to the game!!!!
You say "have a great rest of your day" like you have a gun pointed at your head lol
Lee Evans - Considering how many people in the comments go nuts when he _doesn’t_ say it... :V
Plot twist, he's actually being held captive in a basement somewhere in Idaho by a crazed nintendo fanatic and forced to play these games and make reviews.
@@marcuselias4412 Good.
Loved the movie, never had a chance to play the game when I was younger, got it a few years ago and yes it has its difficult moments but overall good game. Thank you for posting this one, I enjoy all your vids especially the music ones. Nice to put those vids up and just chill with the music
i love your videos man. i get cheered up when i see the notification for them. Also, this game was a huge part of my childhood bc it was one of the few games i owned on my SNES back in the day, me and my friends used to compete to see who could beat it first, he did i never could, but i liked playing the game anyway.
I really only play oldschool games because they're easy to pick up/put down, mostly PC but I love SNES, AMIGA and PS 1/2. Might have to check this game out, the original movie was average from memory. Thanks for making these videos, we all enjoy watching them.
Also really looking forward to C&C remastered coming out soon.
I’ve been following you for a while now and I have to say I REALLY appreciate that you stick to your “short straight forward videos” format.
Keep up the good work, man!
Thanks for watching Carlos, lots more to come
Love the stargate movie and tv series never heard about this game good reciew😊
Ditto. I'm planning on getting an original SNES and a couple games I enjoyed playing at a friend's house in grade school. I never had the system or was able to get one.
I'm definitely adding it to the list of games.
I love your videos. They are so relaxing to watch.
Saw the movie back in the day i was 11 or 12, and rent the game too. Love the movie but the game... I think it deserves get played again. Thanks SNES drunk cheers from Argentina
I was a security guard at a landfill at one time. One night I checked out the dumpster outside the office and found old bundles of Game Pro magazines. They were still in really good shape & had the decals inside you could put on your PS1 lids.
0:12 I had that issue. It was cool to see Ultra 64 coverage even though the N64 had already been on the market for a couple of years by the time I looked through it.
A movie based game, that isn't "too" bad.
I actually really like this game. Iv got the genesis version and I consider it one of the better licensed games on that platform, not the best, but definitely worth playing despite its difficulty
I liked this game back in the day and played it quite a lot. Nothing to try to beat though just a nice little stress reliever.
One of my favorite channels to see new uploads from :)
Lol that game ? Got on Nintendo power
I was definitely tricked into playing a few games after reading Nintendo power back in the day
your upload schedule has saved me from many boring nights
ty SNESdrunk
I picked up this game sometime last year, but haven't really gotten into it. Stargate is one of my favorite franchises and I would like to see if I can beat this game someday.
You're really cranking em out this year!
That's what she said.
Videos like this are why I love this channel
Wow, this game has some awesome explosions.
Great memories of this game. I remember when I was a kid, my brother and I rented it all the time. I still play it from time to time on emulators
Remember renting this game for the weekend and playing from like friday evening till sunday. Stargate was great back then.
The music in this game is memorable. There are two tracks that are still stuck in my head to this day.
My cousin gave me a SNES and a bunch of games because he didn't have room for it. One of the games was this one - I haven't played it yet. With this video, I'll know what I'll be getting myself into when I get round to playing it [also haven't seen the movie btw]. Cheers.
I loved these "graphics" as a child, but I was never able to finish the game due to the secret room itens, but it's a good game overall
When I was much younger and new to Ebay, I bought this game because I loved SG-1 but I didn't realize it was shipped from the UK. So I have it but never played it.
Thank you so much for your channel!
Please do a review of:
-Shiren the Wanderer!
-Metal Max Returns!
-Tengai Makyou Zero!
-G.O.D.!
and maybe
-Magical Vacation (GBA)!
Some of these settings look similar to the SNES Judge Dredd game, especially the desert part.
Maube
FINALLY STARGATE OMG!
I feel so nostalgic playing this in my Raspberry pi. Every time you play a game that you actually owned as a kid is awesome. The ones you never played are cool too because you’re just experiencing them for the first time. It’s like you’re back in the 90s
I always have a great rest of my day after watching a new SNES drunk!
The game reminded me more of Alien 3 on the SNES vs the Super Star Wars series due to the run and gun nature of the game, that and it was not just about impossible to beat. *Looks at Super Empire Strikes Back cart*
I remember wearing that issue of NP out from constantly looking up NBA Jam TE codes... Stargate was actually pretty good, too, but that was always the "NBA Jam" issue to me.
the animation of the Kurt Russell character is very smooth
It could have been such a great game with more development and polish. Just another game that suffered from the "movie license curse" of not having enough time to properly develop the game, with the assumption that the game would be completely irrelevant if it didn't come out within a certain amount of time after the movie.
Well I love the Phantom 2040. And I love the movie Stargate. Looks like I'll be in trying to buy this on Genesis.
One thing worth mentioning is that there was also a gameboy adaptation. But they made that a puzzlegame like tetris for some weird reason.
Played it last year, was surprised that it was pretty good.
Great game. Finished today for the first time with the best ending. One more crossed off my games list.
It seems to be a great game.
I did not play the game but about the crouch & shoot thing, my intuitive reflex would have been to first crouch and then shoot, so it depends on each I guess.
This game used the same engine as Alien 3 for the SNES and 16 bit versions of Judge Dredd. All three games were developed by Probe.
No SNESdrunk, I insist, YOU have a great rest of your day!
The guy that played Dr. Jackson in the movie also voiced Ultron in Avengers: Age of Ultron.
I like the movie Stargate and I do remember renting Stargate on SNES but I really didn’t get too far.
Love the videos! Not much a fan of the movie but this game tried my life. Finally beat it and took a shot of rum .
i got stargate for game gear as a kid and on the box where ingame pics of the genesis version. I PLAYED THIS STUPID PUZZLE GAME FOR HOURS to get to the run'n gun part i thought must have come after the puzzle segement. but it was just this puzzle game. if only...
Nah, those pics aren't on there.

Bummer dude.
Gotta admit though, it's a pretty cool looking cover lol. Great video, I always look forward to seeing them :)
Another brilliant review - and nice references to the film
Acclaim made something good for once, up there with Turok series, Mortal Kombat ports, NBA Jam, Alien 3, Alien Trilogy, Die Hard Trilogy and Vexx. Probe Software and Tantalus Media were good developers, as the former followed the story well and the latter made some nice Ha'tak Glider flying stages.
This was a pretty neat game, very underlooked
one of my favorite Games for the SNES and still to this day im writing those Passwords down XD
Snesdrunk u my man but IMO tap crouch to shoot low is a nice touch. This was a good one to rent every blue moon since the length was nice. In retrospect it looks like they plastered a licensed IP on a blackthorne clone with super star wars control/feel.
One thing not mentioned here: The OST in the SNES version is fantastic, while the Genesis version's sounds like a late 90's midi ringtone.
This reminds me a bit of a Jurassic Park Game I once had on SNES
I remember really wanting to play this a kid because I loved the movie. Nice to know it wasn't crap.
Stargate was a pretty good movie imo. I suppose the game tie-in could have been way worse given certain publishers at the time, especially so with movie licensed video games.
Never heard of the game. I'd love a game based on the series. The movie was fine, but the series killed it!
I love Stargate SG1 and Atlantis.
I had this game lol and loved this movie when I was seven
I love SNES Drunks work. Is there a PS2 version of this channel? If SNES drunk wants to move on to another system that would be perfect. Almost 1900 games I heard were on it.
"Occasionally fun." - Snesdrunk
hahahahhaha so awesome
Been playing this on Sega Genesis for a few days now. Excellent layout for 16 bit tech. I think it's great.
Great time travelling 👍🏡😷
I’ve just finished playing super Star Wars and might have to get hold of this tbh.
Cheers come out dinnertime in the UK so I have my dinner watching your vids
I loved this Game.
Cover Alien 3 for SNES or Judge Dredd!! Love your videos!
I love all your videos but can we get a little more sega drunk
Total length of video: 325 secs.
Total length of "SNES Drunk": 3.5 secs.
1.08% of the video was spent listening to "SNES Drunk."
The movie and the tv series are great! The tv show especially was a bit cheesy but super fun.
Another gem from the beast SNES.
My day is always best, when SNES drunk hopes the rest of my day is great.
How pretty! Thanks, Drunk!
Damn! Never knew there was a game for this! Maybe I will breakout the snes Classic and download it
My primary memory of this game is quixotically trying to beat it during a rental. I was at what I thought was the final boss, but it was 2:00am so my dad just walked into the room, turned the console off, and walked out. Years later, I watched some longplays and discovered I was nowhere near the final boss.
It seems that the character sprite is a bit..floaty? Not sure what term you'd use, but he seems to move and tun on a dime with a bit more realistic movement and not so Mortal Kombat deliberate, if you follow me.
I think I get what you mean by the game being 'too long' too. At first I'd say that isn't a problem for someone like me but if the game starts to feel repetitive or like you're losing the plot in all the running and gunning I get it.
I personally don't think I'd have a problem with the whole stop and shoot/crouch and shoot thing. Sure, it kinda puts the brakes on the run and gun effect but it's not mechanically nonsensical so it'd be easy to get used to after a while. Probably also contributes to the perceived length of the game tbh lol.
I'm gonna look for this rom, cheers dude
