I thought this was going to be a break down of "RoadBlasters" but I was pleasantly surprised to find there is a game that I have never heard about. Another great video.
When I was 12 I had a sega CD and sonic CD and all I wanted for my birthday was This and Time Gal. Screenshots. Dont judge me, I had the magazines. I got them both - small town canada - my mom ordered them from a magazine. Road Blaster had no CD in it, my mom had to write them a letter. 6 weeks later it showed up in my mailbox in a CD Slip. I checked that box every day after school. Every time we ordered from that shop Id check the box every day after school. When I opened it up and saw a game inside I was so excited haha
I remember this game for the SEGA CD me and my friends had a blast playing it! This video really takes me back to those days thank you sooo much for the fond memories😃👍❤
I never tired of playing this. Loved it. The tone was set by that opening mega cd song and then the ending felt meloncholy. Anyone remember the cheats? One was level select and one was for watching it as a movie with no HUD visible. Think one cheat was pushing A about 30 times in the options.... Might be wrong though
Like many here, i also remember this game. I was very impressed. Now i never had this game myself, i didn't even own a console back then. I got to play this at a friend's house.
I remember this game being named here in England as Road Avenger, i knew someone in my class at school who had a Sega Mega CD machine and had the CD copy with the case and box art to prove it to us all. Thanks for all the childhood memories Patman and keep up the good work, can you do a history video on a game called Fighting Mania Hokuto no Ken from Konami.
Laser disc games have their place in video gaming anthology. Either you loved playing them or not, one thing is for sure, they're a piece of video game history that will never be forgotten. Great video Patman!!!
I never knew about the Double Dragon cameo. Cool! I played this on the Sega CD. It was a lot of fun at the time. My brothers and I also had a good time trying to figure out the lyrics to the song; there were some lines we just couldn't get. Thanks for the flashback!
My favorite part of this game is when you drive through the mall, up the stairs, through a window, before crashing through the back of a helicopter and making it explode. This game is awesome.
We had a Thayer's Quest in our local arcade. I literally never saw anyone play it. Despite this, the game's keyboard was hopelessly worn, with what I assume to be a protective layer essentially gone. I watched the intro many times, and eventually worked my way through a let's play of the game on RUclips. Definitely the kind of game that simply would never have existed without Dragon's Lair.
My god I played through this every freaking day on sega cd after high school holy fuck just thinking about it makes my heart pump. I wouldn't get that feeling again until the main desert storm chase in Fury Road.
Data East also released the LD arcade game "Bega's Battle", which I saw in person in an airport arcade when I was barely old enough to remember things. It made an impression. If you want to see why, go look it up on RUclips. You'll see the attract mode. It shows a guy's face melting, complete with eyeballs popping out. All footage in the game was stolen from a movie called Harmageddon.
I believe it was actually licensed legally! But yes, all footage came from Genma Taisen Harmageddon... with character designs by Katsuhiro Otomo (creator of Akira)
@@JustinSevenTwo I can believe that it was licensed since it was after all a Japanese game, but the nature of the usage of the footage, especially with the comically awful English dub and script ("last of the Earth warriors", "provide a barrier shield"), still very much smacks of what happened to Lupin in Cliff Hanger among others. They were just completely making stuff up, and I doubt the Japanese team had anything at all to do with the English. Of course the reason I brought the game up was because it was legitimately startling what I was seeing in an arcade cabinet, in a public venue. There's zero doubt in my mind that it was the most violent video game to exist when it was released, just because of that clip. Even back then, I found myself wondering how things would have turned out if, against all odds, that game had somehow ended up being really popular. (Rather than a blatant effort to make a quick buck off the LD craze started by Dragon's Lair.) Somebody would have noticed the attract mode.
@@Asterra2 Yeah I'd definitely agree with that... Really not a great use for that film or footage! Really just a backdrop for a second rate vertical shooter
I've always loved laserdisc games ever since the first time I saw Dragon's Lair in the arcade when I was around six or seven years old. I had this one on SegaCD and remember thinking how awesome it was to be playing a laserdisc game at home. Amazing video as always Patman!
Great video! I'm glad to see you covering this game. I remember seeing it on the Sega CD once at a gaming shop way back when. Somehow I never did manage to play the original in the arcades since the LD based games came and went pretty fast in the 80s!
I had no idea the arcade version looked and sounded so much better than the Sega CD version. Crazy. I might have to go back and play it. It's hard to truly convey to younger gamers how absolutely mindblowing this game was coming off the SNES and Genesis. My memory of playing this game is still pretty vivid. It was a rainy afternoon and my mom had allowed me to rent it. When we got home she started watching Oprah and I didn't come put of my room for ages. Eventually my brother saw me playing the game and tried helping me out with the harder parts. I remember feeling distinctly engaged and immersed because of the visuals and pace of the game despite the limited gameplay control.
The director of the actual anime footage here is Hideki Takayama. He actually worked on three LD games as far as I know: this, Cobra Command and Freedom Fighter.
I'm lost in your channel. Such a shame I never seen it in my recommendations. I'm amazed by your productivity and by the quality of your history vids. I'm especially fond of watching this particular one since I love this game a lot. Thank you, kindly
I loved it on Sega CD! It felt a lot more interactive than any other movie of its kind by far. Oh, and there is no shooting in the game. I mean, you don't shoot. That cursor that appears when you hold turbo down is to aim the car at the target to hit the bad guys with your car.
Dude this is one of my favorite games of all time . I didn't realize it was Road avenger till later I. The video . I used to play this constantly at a local video game store at the time . They let you play any game for like ba hour four a dollar . And they Booth s with all the consoles back then
Would really like to see this and Cobra Command get released on a modern console. Dragon's Lair has gotten rereleased like a billion times, so it's not like there's no love for classic laser disc games. Thanks for the video! Love all your content!
If cheesecake wish lists were to happen...? An all new rebuild in Unreal Engine 5 from the ground up and the original LD-Rom dump as a bonus extra for the PC, PS5, Switch and XBOX edition 😀
It would cost next to nothing to release those games on DVD or BluRay. Im surprised its never been done. They were both released on original playstation, so theres that.
@@swampdonkey4919 I'm amazed that more LD games weren't released on BluRay or DVD. It seems like it wouldn't be *that* hard - though I have no idea of the process of converting LD games to DVD-video whatsoever, so for all I know it could be a much more difficult process than imagined! 😲
Man, I don't know how I missed this one back in the day at the arcades! Of course, I never did like these sorta point and click games anyway. I do like the anime style though. Thanks as always Patman! It's always a nice surprise when I get your notifications!
just a note: Toei is pronounced like "toy." They're famous for many franchises over the years including Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon, Super Sentai, and One Piece. otherwise, amazing work as always and I look forward to the next video!
Another nice video! I don't remember ever seeing this game back in the day. I did learn about it several years ago but I have not ever seen the arcade at retro events to give it a try.
Did this game ever come to arcades in the US? I remember seeing laserdisc arcade games such as Dragon's Lair, Space Ace, Firefox, Cobra Command & even Cliff Hanger, but never did I see Road Blaster/Avenger till the SEGA CD version port. There was also a cowboy laser disc arcade game where you would play as an anime cowboy & the controls were a single big buzzer like button. Only saw it once in a movie theater. But what was it called?!
Yeah! The one by Konami, right?! I saw some playthroughs and really liked it. The bloopers were hilarious! Its animation seems like the stuff TMS was doing with DiC Animation in the early 80s! I want that one and a gem by Funai called Esh's Aurunmilla. A hilarious anime parody of both Dragon's Lair AND Space Ace!!
PatmanQC 🙏 please can you do Firefox. That’s a game very, very close to my heart. I skipped school to watch the movie,then had my mind blown when i walked into my favourite arcade and saw the game some time after. I’ve got it on Hyperspin but it plays like crap. It’s a dream of mine to play it once again. Another fantastic video..thanks for the insight into a game I’d forgotten about 🙌❤️👍
I liked the ones that were basically illustrated choose your own adventures, but think it was a miss to not have some comicbook artist do a superhero version. Even if doing a DC or Marvel character they could've created an original hero. Who knows, it might have gone on to be famous enough to be a franchise character still going in all sorts of media.
Wow..Those animations reminds me of some 90s series like Dragon Ball Z, Sailor Moon and others..even as a LaserDisc Game..I find that very impressive. The music were great and the graphics were pretty smooth...The SNES Version is a Bootleg..the only one bothers me is..Super NES is a cartridge based system..I have no idea how did they manage to ported it into the system..a very great video for today..Mr. Patman.. Have a Great Day
No mention of the Takkara Video Challanger version? where they turned it into an on-rails Lightgun shooter. VC Used VHS cassettes, essentially pre-recorded gameplay, but with flashing tagets overlayed onto the game footage, as well as Voiceover

It was a fun novelty game, but it got so repetitive. To the point that this video brought me right back to my childhood memories of playing some of these scenes over and over! 😄
I like these type of games.last one I think they kinda made was virtual cop. They should bring these games back especially with all the new technology in terms of HW and SW
I didn't even find out til fairly recently that the car in the starting area in Double Dragon was the same one from Road Blaster FX/Road Avenger! never got to try this one may need to locate an ISO of one of the home versions. although there's another similar game I've gotten hooked on via emulation, Ninja Hayate?! same exact idea but you play as a ninja it's super addicting. (it's a second two-pack alongside the RBFX/Thunder Storm FX that was released on PSX/Saturn in Japan) I never knew this had so many conversions!
Oh shit man, I remember renting that from Hollywood Video in the 90's!! Totally forgot that existed! Stupidest name ever, but I remember it being cool.
Wow, I'd never heard of or seen this game. Was only familiar with Road Blasters. A laserdisc game my sister loves but I never experienced is Super Don Quixote. Any chance you could do that one?
Oh boy these it's one of my favorites Q,T,E, games almost Time Gal AND ninja Hayate AND dragón's lair trilogy i'have these wonderful piece of cult in one double pack whit thunder storm another Best instant clasicc of cult,for the Playstation import,very good work AND greetings from mexico comrade 😃👍🇲🇽
Another quality review. Quick question--do you remember the name of this racing game in which you could choose an 18-wheeler, F1 race car, or standard car that scrolled upwards like Bump n' Jump EXCEPT you were wholly dependent on obtaining "energy" packs to continue the game? When energy is depleted the game audible tells you "I'm sorry to say, but you've run out of energy!" It is definitely late 80s and had a Neo-Geo feeling but pre-dates NG.
Revolutionary Concepts did the HD release on iOS. Their port of Cobra Command HD is also excellent. I wish they were able to get to Time Gal. The iOS games no longer work since Revolutionary Concepts never updated the app to 32bit so they stopped working. Would be nice if someone open-sourced or ported it to 32bit.

Indeed, was basically a interactive movie, partially anyway lol. They had a lot of fmv games on the sega cd. Sonic CD being my fav and lunar.
I have the same memories. This was a game changer to us on the Sega CD !
Excellent, thank you so much for watching
I never tired of playing this. Loved it. The tone was set by that opening mega cd song and then the ending felt meloncholy.
Anyone remember the cheats? One was level select and one was for watching it as a movie with no HUD visible. Think one cheat was pushing A about 30 times in the options.... Might be wrong though
I played it using the handle controller from my master system (it was a steering wheel type thing)
Like many here, i also remember this game. I was very impressed. Now i never had this game myself, i didn't even own a console back then. I got to play this at a friend's house.
It was so good especially back in the day

Thanks for all the childhood memories Patman and keep up the good work, can you do a history video on a game called Fighting Mania Hokuto no Ken from Konami.
Thanks for the LaserDisc love Patman, as it's greatly appreciated, this genre doesn't get nearly the attention of other retro genres and games.
It's about time somebody uploaded
something cool on here🙏
Laser disc games have their place in video gaming anthology. Either you loved playing them or not, one thing is for sure, they're a piece of video game history that will never be forgotten. Great video Patman!!!
Man the animation is great
Oh heelllll yeah. My neighbors had a laser disc of empire strikes back. I was fascinated by the giant silver record.
I have not seen a video that you have made that I did not enjoy! Thank you and please continue to do what you do!
Some really talented people had a lot of fun with this one. Thanks for another crazy in-depth review.
This game was what got me into the Mad Max franchise, funny enough.
I never knew about the Double Dragon cameo. Cool! I played this on the Sega CD. It was a lot of fun at the time. My brothers and I also had a good time trying to figure out the lyrics to the song; there were some lines we just couldn't get. Thanks for the flashback!

Same.

The theme song for the Sega CD version is so popular that some dude whose name escapes me sang a cover of it for Amazon Music.
My god I played through this every freaking day on sega cd after high school holy fuck just thinking about it makes my heart pump. I wouldn't get that feeling again until the main desert storm chase in Fury Road.

Enjoyed playing Road Avenger & Cobra Command. I’m fan of Toei animation with Fist of the North Star, Transformers the Movie, and more.

Very cool, thanks for sharing
always a good night when Pat uploads a new vid !
I wish there was a good way to play this today.
I was just looking for what the name of this game was for Sega, thank you Patman QC for covering Road Blaster the animated video game!
I would have loved to play this game as a kid, even though I probably wouldn't be good at it.

It's surreal playing Road Blaster on a snes with a FX Pack pro. Somebody port Time Gal!
Great video. Seeing all the various editions that have come out was quite incredible and interesting to see how many fans have a spot for this game

Just wanted to say I really love your videos. Always entertaining and well put together, thanks for setting up this channel. I'm glad you did
Loved this. ThNl you for making these videos! Really takes me back
Absolutely, thanks

Kind of reminds me of a more frantic "Riding Bean" anime.
If only that SNES port had been an official one back in the day, woulda been Nintendo's ultimate flex on Sega.
"See? We can do FMV *without* CDs! 😁"
Great video 📹 I would be cool if they remake this game 🎮
PatmanQC 🙏 please can you do Firefox. That’s a game very, very close to my heart. I skipped school to watch the movie,then had my mind blown when i walked into my favourite arcade and saw the game some time after.
I’ve got it on Hyperspin but it plays like crap. It’s a dream of mine to play it once again.
Another fantastic video..thanks for the insight into a game I’d forgotten about 🙌❤️👍
Cobra Command had the best video game soundtrack. This is a great video I never heard of road blaster.
I'm sure I will cover cobra command at some point. Thanks

DBZ and Sailor Moon were also animated by Toei. 😇
@@autobotstarscream765 Yeah..They were some of my favorites
No mention of the Takkara Video Challanger version? where they turned it into an on-rails Lightgun shooter. VC Used VHS cassettes, essentially pre-recorded gameplay, but with flashing tagets overlayed onto the game footage, as well as Voiceover
Saw this game but never played it. Great trip down memory lane.
I thought 'A Turn For The Worse' was going to be called 'To Grandmother's House We go'
It's really fun to look at this game and its different versions. I watch your videos relatively often and learn about video game history. Sometimes, I'm perplexed, however, due to things like the fact that you've apparently never heard Toei Animation being pronounced before.

Thanks for the info
At first, I thought u were gunna talk about the Atari game. If u do make a video on that, please talk about the movie Wreck it Ralph. Those of us who hav seen the movie know why
It was a fun novelty game, but it got so repetitive. To the point that this video brought me right back to my childhood memories of playing some of these scenes over and over! 😄
I like these type of games.last one I think they kinda made was virtual cop. They should bring these games back especially with all the new technology in terms of HW and SW
That would have been cool
You forgot to mention the Japan exclusive released in Laserdisc for Pioneer Sega LD, but you used the collercial for it :)
Correction on my deleted comment. This one is different from what I played as a kid.
Super Bowling reference!
I used to rent it a ton before buying it. I even bowled a few 300 games.
Excellent, I never did that on this game
@ 3:56 - That DUDE is definitely in the game! I think it's level three or so, where you're traveling thru the city and then the highway after that. 🙂
You the man, Patman!🤘🏼
I tried to Google the lyrics because I couldn't understand at all what he was singing... Funny song that's for sure 🤣
I still have this game on my old ipod.😅
I did confuse this game with the Atari arcade game , but thanks to Patman I am no longer confused
I still love this game.
Fun game thank you Pacmanqc
Excellent vid Patman! Requesting a video of History of "Escape from Cyber City" I enjoy these FMV QTE arcade games!
Or - the complete version of it, "Freedom Fighter"...or the MOST complete version of it, "Galaxy Express 999!" 🙂
I didn't even find out til fairly recently that the car in the starting area in Double Dragon was the same one from Road Blaster FX/Road Avenger! never got to try this one may need to locate an ISO of one of the home versions. although there's another similar game I've gotten hooked on via emulation, Ninja Hayate?! same exact idea but you play as a ninja it's super addicting. (it's a second two-pack alongside the RBFX/Thunder Storm FX that was released on PSX/Saturn in Japan) I never knew this had so many conversions!
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks
THANKS FOR MAKING THIS! I love this game. I wish IOS store still had it. I deleted mine and now I cant download it again.
Amazing video for an amazing game ❤️
Road avenger here in the UK on mega cd had a much better soundtrack. The intro and the ending theme are much better.
The best of the "video" video games.
Review the Captain Power VHS game please!? I loved that game as a kid.
Reminds me of the anime Riding Bean.
Oh shit man, I remember renting that from Hollywood Video in the 90's!! Totally forgot that existed! Stupidest name ever, but I remember it being cool.
Never played this game so thanks PM QC Wil give this game a shot
Excellent, have fun
Happy little games 😁
Wow, I'd never heard of or seen this game. Was only familiar with Road Blasters. A laserdisc game my sister loves but I never experienced is Super Don Quixote. Any chance you could do that one?
I never saw this in my local arcade , but looks fun
Man, Laser Disc was a big deal when it arrived.
I just can't get into this game. I can't understand it. Glad u dropped a new video while you at the Midwest classic. Happy trails
5:38 Man, that's some intense action going 30km/h at 2000rpm XD

Another quality review. Quick question--do you remember the name of this racing game in which you could choose an 18-wheeler, F1 race car, or standard car that scrolled upwards like Bump n' Jump EXCEPT you were wholly dependent on obtaining "energy" packs to continue the game? When energy is depleted the game audible tells you "I'm sorry to say, but you've run out of energy!" It is definitely late 80s and had a Neo-Geo feeling but pre-dates NG.
That looks really awesome.
It sort of looks like if they made a video game for The Wraith...
Love that movie
Revolutionary Concepts did the HD release on iOS. Their port of Cobra Command HD is also excellent. I wish they were able to get to Time Gal. The iOS games no longer work since Revolutionary Concepts never updated the app to 32bit so they stopped working. Would be nice if someone open-sourced or ported it to 32bit.
That would be fantastic
I actually prefer the alternative title Road Avenger, it's more fitting to the story of the game.
Whats the cross hair for again? I only played the mega cd version....
Yeah I need to check out the Saturn or Super NES versions. Sorry I couldn't make it to MGC this year.
