Alien Soldier Playthrough (1/8): Levels 1-5 Alien Soldier Playthrough (1/8): Levels 1-5

These first levels are fairly simple as they are designed to get you used to the game. My favorite boss out of this bunch is definitely the samurai.

A nice, easy level to ease myself back into the game. I find it more efficient to directly head to the boss, so that is the COA that I will be setting here. Also, if you are wondering why I am playing eratically for the first handful of rooms, I was trying to remember how to do the roundhouse.
I must admit, I laughed a bit over the way I squashed the boss. He didn't even see it coming.

Onward to Streets of Rage 2, which improves upon the original in every single way. I chose Axel because canceling his combo into the grand upper will see you through 95% of the game.
I probably should have put it on a higher difficulty, but I didn't think to until after the first few levels. Oh well.

In these levels, I get to battle the Flying Neo, that bio-organic monstrosity that flies through the air and cloaks himself, as well as Xi-Tiger, who is mentioned in the intro. Xi-Tiger is not tough, but he does a ton of damage if he hits. He has a nice introduction as well. Reminds me of the Hulk.

Here is my fight with the final boss of the game, the android known as Golden Silver. He beats on me pretty badly, but I still win. Enjoy the ending...poor Green.

I find the boss of this level incredibly annoying because of his little spinning attack. Oh well. At least he has a low HP.

The boss of this level is a major pain in the ass. His HP is through the roof, so he takes a lot of punishment.

A couple of things about this level. First, you have to fight previous bosses again, which is a beat 'em up standard. Next, the actual boss of this level is...interesting. Apparently Konami wanted to humiliate you if you lost here.

If you have not heard of this game, then I don't blame you. It is a rare beat 'em up that came out in arcades. I really could not even describe it. You have to see it to understand.

Here is the final fight of the game as well as the true ending. Notice that the core laughs until the very end.
By the way, I blew up the Pig Star without a thermal port. So suck on that, Skywalker. Shove the force up your ass.

The second floor of Rick's demon infested mansion. In this level, Rick must quickly hunt down the Giant Boreworm in order to stop the smaller boreworm from devouring his wife. As it is only the second level, it is pretty simple. Just rush to the end and manhandle the boss.

My younger brother and I play through the arcade beat 'em up Gaia Crusaders. I am player 1 and he is player 2. It is a pretty good game...certainly deeper than most games of this genre. The plot makes no sense, but then again, who cares?
This is the first level, Blue Soil. The boss is a funny looking old guy in a turtle shell.

This is an alright level, but it has the most annoying boss in the game. She was driving me nuts the entire time.

Beware, I am trigger happy as hell and I shoot everything in sight. Meaning, the screen is filled with gunfire 98% of the time.

As I said in the description for the opening, this game is just odd. However, I felt like playing through it since it was one of the first genesis games that I owned. I used to play with my my brothers back when I was in grade school. Ah, memories.
The boss is some kind of queer Jake the Snake Roberts.

Well, lot's not sugar-coat this one: I get my ass kicked in this video. Pretty badly. This is definitely not one of my better videos. I would say that it ties my final Ninja Baseball Batman video in terms of me getting my ass kicked. Oh well. I think part of it is that I really didn't care any more by the end. Meh.

The third floor of Rick's monster mansion. This is when the difficulty of the game really start to be ramped up. You will also notice that this is when I start spamming the roundhouse like it is my job. I suggest you all do the same.
I like the boss of this level. Not only does he burst out of a giant teddy bear, but he is the only boss in the game with a taunt.

This level is cool in that it is completely vertical. Also, please forgive my wanton window breaking. Not only is it fun, but I was trying to remember which window had the plasma digger. The boss is also unique, though a little wimpy.
