Footage from the best shooter, ever

Post by marurun »

Yes, it's a playthrough on YouTube of Gates of Thunder, for the Turbo Grafx-16 SuperCD. My opinion is that it's a perfect shooter, flawless in both presentation and implementation.



The guy playing it knows the game damn well and makes it look far easier than it really is. I was that good back in the day, though I tended to switch my options around a lot more and he's a little better at putting himself into, and then back out of, tight situations while dodging. Basically, once you're good enough you know how to best dispatch most enemies before they get a chance to hassle you, and that's what's going on here. Troublesome, evil enemies are being put down before they get a chance to be quite as evil and troublesome as they were intended.

Watch it and love it! Perfection must be appreciated!

I don't know about perfect, (mainly because I haven't played it) but it does look awesome. If I ever get a TurboGrafx-CD/Turbo Duo or DL the emulator, I'll get that game.

Hell yes! :D GoT is a kick ass shooter with a soundtrack you can listen to in the car (yep, it's that good - game and music).
