I vaguely remember this from my childhood. It was around 2009 and we still had a Mega Drive. I was about 4 or 5. I remember being grossed out by the aliens but for many years I had no idea what the game was called. I'm glad I found it now
So glad I found this. This was a game I actually wasn't sure I hadn't imagined from when I was very little. I remember loving the robot guy, though. He was my guy.
I never understood why Alien Storm doesn't get at least get the same love as the original Golden Axe for the Genesis. Sega released 3 beat em ups in mid-late 1991 Alien Storm, Streets of Rage and Golden Axe 2. All 3 good games, all 3 clear upgrades over original Golden Axe yet Alien Storm gets the short end.
Streets of Rage is art, Alien Storm is short and fun in a 90's style which leaves Golden Axe in third place as it's a bit slow and a bit pagan/ fantasy as apposed to being modern.
This was a cool game; it didn't get a lot of media love though; people said it was too easy; and it didn't quite have the flawless execution of those other games. Streets of Rage had better music, and was more elegant.
all three are freakin awesome. i don't think alien storm and streets of rage are clear upgrades over golden axe, all three are awesome in their own right and bring something different to the table. alien storm has its sci-fi b movie aesthetic and awesome variety of playstyles, streets of rage has its phenomenal soundtrack and pacing, with very satisfying combat and cool bosses, and golden axe has its imaginative fantasy setting like levels on a giant eagle or turtle, as well as a great climactic boss fight.
All these years I thought the robot guy was spitting explosions onto the aliens, and now that I'm watching this longplay, I now realise that he's leaning forward and firing a projectile from his backpack. My childhood was a lie.
A CLASSIC! I Played a LOT on my MEGADRIVE (i'm from São Paulo-BR) on early 90's. Good old times.... I LOVE this channel!!! ! Straight to the point!!! The GAMEPLAY! No bullshit commentaries and stupid youtubers on screen!
I dont feel old (yet ) , but I f@cking loved playing this mad game , made me believe these monstrosities were real and was afraid to sleep , let alone go to toilet at night ! 👍🏻💪🏻🇬🇧❤️🍻🤣🤓🤓🤓
Esse jogo me marcou pois uma vez, na infância, aluguei ele e no último dia descobri que podia que podia jogar com o robô. Nunca mais achei pra alugar porque nao sabi qual era o nome do jogo! nostálgico!

Jeez man. I've been looking for this game for years because I vaguely remember playing it, but have absolutely no clue on which platform was it on. I've always thought it was on the super nintendo. God this brings back so many memories.
+Dan1104xv If you have a PS3 they do a genesis game collection called Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection which has like 50 old genesis games on it, Alien Storm included.

I like how the player character are such absolute Chads that they can kill aliens so hard they fucking burst into flames just by dash dodging into them.
bro my dad bought this for me and my brother we used and me and him used to play this game all the time until the console broke 😥 it brings back some memories
I never had this as a kid but I used to be obsessed with the images of it I had in a sega magazine. Finally played it on the True Blue mini, it's cool. But I am watching this to see how to do it lol
Wow. My brother mentioned that title when I was making him guess some video games sounds. I completely forgot about it. But somehow after that, I immediately remembered the ending. theme. We had a cartridge that had several games in one, among them this one, Double Dragon and Fighting Master.
I was like 12 or 10 years old and a friend of mine father bought this console and after a while my friend lend it me to have some fun evenntually got addicted to it and never return it back. Meanwhile my friend and his family emigrate to Canada and i was lefr with the console and was very happy back then but down the years im felt disappointed of not having return the console and now im 40 years and wanna to buy the lastest ps5 to give back to the children of me friend but do not know how to apologise moreso i dont even live in the same country etc... Help me out... 😭😭😭😭😭😭🙏

I´m crying right now. This was the first game that I played in my life
.....why does that make you cry?

I was 5-6 years old when i played this, thank you for keeping the memories alive.
Same here
I hate how underrated this game is. It is actually amazing.
This game was really scary when I was a little kid :)

True.

Alien Storm stands among the best, SoR music is peerless but Alien Storm has some great tunes too

Number1StarSB good thing all three of the, are in Sonic’s Ultimate Genesis Collection
Always choose the robot. LOL.
He's the best
Same.
Hell yea with good distance and versatility.
Me too 😁
This was my game when i was a child
Ah the Sega Channel. Those were the days. I remember the first day I got it. I played it all day and night and remember eating a sesame seed bagel.
All these years I thought the robot guy was spitting explosions onto the aliens, and now that I'm watching this longplay, I now realise that he's leaning forward and firing a projectile from his backpack.
My childhood was a lie.
corona virus and shit! ... 3 am, and i am getting nostalgic on sega! ...wow these monsters reminds me a lot of enemies in many final fantasy games
Or ghost busters
Why did the red guy look like Elvis in his portrait at the bottom left of the screen ??
because it's the king himself, elctrocuting wild aliens in the streets like crazy
A mi me gustaba mucho por los colores
@@unlocodelainternet9174 piola
I've never noticed that before. Now I can't "unsee" it!
Also looks a bit like Christopher Reeves
Dude I remember this game so much. Forgot how Ugly those aliens were. Well played.
The running levels are hilarious 😂
I remember seeing this game when i was around 3 years old back in '94 ... the game looked like pure magic to me back in the day lol
I remembered that I got so scared of that big mouth tentacled alien enemy with faces on its body that I have nightmares about it.
There is a movie 90s alien faces on its body
@@x.jeonkookie.x2428
What title is that movie?
@@eddzetarabbit I forgot the name . But I 'll tell you while I find it
Thanks I’ve been trying to remember this game with the cronenberg monsters for years. Loved it as a kid.
It was playing games like these, that makes playing Dark Souls now seem normal to me.
0:26 Why are the mother and son dancing among monsters ? LOL
When funky music plays you have to dance
Because that Mission music is a bop. 🔥
Acredito que eles estão tentando fugir, mas não conseguem .
Joder... como amaba este juego. Nostalgia :modeon: :')
2:10 that little kid definitely got torn to shreds off screen
Fr. They ate little dude
one of the best games ever made. brings back amazing memories:)))
This game has been in my memory waiting for the right conversation to give me the ability to remember this gem of a game 💎
My god the credits sequence is amazing.
This was my first game on Genesis. I used to play it non-stop. It really reminds me of Ed Repka's artwork now.
like the from beyond cover?
It reminds me of John Carpenter's "The Thing".
@ definitely. Same vibe.
A CLASSIC! I Played a LOT on my MEGADRIVE (i'm from São Paulo-BR) on early 90's. Good old times....
I LOVE this channel!!! ! Straight to the point!!! The GAMEPLAY!
No bullshit commentaries and stupid youtubers on screen!
Back then when all alien and demon enemy design were pure grotesque. Hell even the environment are completely other worldly.
I dont feel old (yet ) , but I f@cking loved playing this mad game , made me believe these monstrosities were real and was afraid to sleep , let alone go to toilet at night ! 👍🏻💪🏻🇬🇧❤️🍻🤣🤓🤓🤓
Even though the aliens designs are grotesque its tempered with a fun, colourful, 1980's and 90's vibe with the way it's presented.
I remember playing this game with my dad
Ahhh man i was looking for the name of this game for aaaages. FINALLY FOUND IT THANK YOU!
Este fue el primer juego que conocí, cuando tenia 5 años lo jugaba junto a mi jefa, nos pasábamos horas jugando
48:02 that was so clean
Fr
I loved the music in this game. Ever since I was a kid I never got it out of my head. This and kid Chameleon.
This game always terrified me as a child but I loved playing it.
Esse jogo me marcou pois uma vez, na infância, aluguei ele e no último dia descobri que podia que podia jogar com o robô. Nunca mais achei pra alugar porque nao sabi qual era o nome do jogo! nostálgico!
I LOVED this game! The music is SO Troma... actually the game is really Troma too :)
Thanks for bringing back memories.
Nooooooo! This game can't end on a cliffhanger! This definitely needs a sequel!
The guy looks like Elvis in his thumbnail.
I used play this years ago, thanks for the memories
Love the character and level design.
i never ended it when i was a child, now i can see that!! thank you"" wasnt an easy game!!
Played this as a kid only ever made it on to the last ship a few times now I know just how close I was to finishing it. Thanks
the best years of my childhood love AlienStorm
I was so addicted to that game back in the days
Same. I am still hoping for a remake to this very day. 🙏
I just finished the game on the Genesis Switch Collection and the dancing credits made me LOL
3:28 one of the best boss themes on Genesis.
100%. I've always thought this. This games soundtrack is seriously underrated.
Damn. This game looks amazing. Like a a lot better than most other 2D "retro" games released nowadays. It has so much style
This is nostalgia man🥺🥺🥺🥺I miss playing game like this alien storm was my favorite
One of dbest Sega game

They would beat Sonic in a race easy. 🔥
this game is nostalgic so much😭😭
wow, elvis hunting aliens in the streets in a flashy red suit, what a show ...
thanx Sega for the good old times
You are a god at this game. I always get to the 8th and final round with half of my health left with no lives left. :(
I uset to have this game on my old Mega Drive when I was a kid and it was a great game to play.
Isso se chama infância, meus amigos.
Adorava jogar de dois com os meus irmãos, saudades dessa época.

Sweet playthrough MM. I enjoy wathing his videos but anybody videos on Longplay seems to be awesome to watch.
I like how the player character are such absolute Chads that they can kill aliens so hard they fucking burst into flames just by dash dodging into them.
bro my dad bought this for me and my brother we used and me and him used to play this game all the time until the console broke 😥 it brings back some memories
Love this game! Could never get past stage 5 though...
I love this game. Big alien invasion happens, but a few total legends come out and just ruin their day and save earth haha.
I never had this as a kid but I used to be obsessed with the images of it I had in a sega magazine. Finally played it on the True Blue mini, it's cool. But I am watching this to see how to do it lol
I Played the Master System version.
According to the instruction manual for this game, the man is called Gordon, the woman is called Karla, and the robot is called Slammer....
Wow. My brother mentioned that title when I was making him guess some video games sounds. I completely forgot about it. But somehow after that, I immediately remembered the ending. theme.
We had a cartridge that had several games in one, among them this one, Double Dragon and Fighting Master.
I played this first time at my cousins house wen I was a kid on sega mega games, had this thunder blade and columns on it, never forgot
Who agrees that this should be on Sega Forever on the phone
This brings back memories, i had got this game when i was 6 years old, im 31 now
Under recognised and under appreciated.
never made to finish this game he his pretty hard
i reached lvl 6 onl thinking its the final one :(
Fr. My thing is how they barely give you any Energy. Lol It's very easy to use up, gotta be super careful with it.
This game wielded me out when I was a kid
Super under rated mega drive title.
This game looks like Golden Axe but with all the alien tropes from the 80's like Aliens, The Thing, and Body Snatchers.
Exactly. It's basically Golden Axe in the future
World of Longplays These are the Hype Games summer time 90's playing watching anime ball Z LIT DAYZ!
I was scared shitless when I played this game as a kid.
I don't remember the music being so friggin sick 😮
AAAAAAA NOSTÁLGIA CARALHO
Sonic plays the drums here too?!
懐かしいな。当時のアーケードゲームの移植版だけど、ゲーム自体は好きでした。
22 years i played this 22 years ago damnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn i used to play with the girl and the robot a lot good ol times
Why does it sound like the music was made using a photographer snapping a camera at 21:00 minutes in? lol

Es un gran juego y clásico no ? 😃
This game absolutely traumatised me as a kid
Here in 2021 the music is still awesome 🥰
Love that dance ending.
Like watching a futuristic Golden Axe
i always hated those alien Bin fuckers when i was younger. never used to be too good at that part. now, i'm like a pro!
never finished this game as kid. tough game
Genesis is the best console. Period.
Opinion, one not everyone shares.
OMG remember playing this with the Menacer
Final boss has so much health that I had to turn rapid fire on to stop my arm from hurting (played it on ps3)
One of the first games I bought for my Megadrive, wish they would release it for IOS
i get insane lulz of this spazing out people it's wierd game yet it affected my memories :)
Why 2 comercial at the begin?
i owned this game and the only thing about it i remember is never being able to get past the start screen because of that fuckin eyeball in the bottom right corner, goodness was that shit unnerving
