Beating this game as a kid after MONTHS of trying I was ridiculously proud of myself. I actually feared power outages because I had to leave it paused for hours at a time in between attempts. No one could stop my groove in the next few days as a crawled through this game from the beginning until the end. The triumph of winning was immeasurable.
I remember the pixel art and music blewing my freaking mind the first time I played this game, so unique! And what a great port for such an early Mega Drive release (December 1989, only 1 year after the arcade original). They even customized some aspects like the bomb being bigger or the red weapon when fully powered now being a circular shield which is more interesting IMO since it differs more compared to the other, blue and green weapons. This version also has a different ending for each of the 5 loops and talking about this, I still have to 1CC the game through those 5 loops which is not an easy task... An iconic and timeless, shooting masterpiece.
I know that the Japanese video game company called SEGA became more present in Brazil, Nintendo dominated in the United States and Mexico, but without a doubt it was a time of pure fun, long live SEGA!
Night Driver Best shmup ever Best space-themed game ever Best game that has an x ever Best game with 3 different spaceships ever Best game released in 1988-1989 ever Basically, one of my favorite games of all time! TRUXTOOOON!
...but I never played past the first round?! There are cutscenes?!? 58:18 -- "Tom"... is a chibi character...? With a Pokemon...?" Super Fighter"... what 1:57:12 -- oh you have got to be kidding me ROFL
Truxton fills the screen with effects that would make an SNES drool. No blinking. Hardly any screen flicker. This game is worth every penny it fetches today . . . Great upload!
+emajansen What?! xD music is subjective but IMO they're better on Mega Drive, more unique and memorable, but this version also has good sound effects while on PC Engine they're HORRIBLE, unbearable (and same for many others PC Engine games and even some PC Engine *CD* games which is lame, check Sapphire or Rayxanber III for examples...).
+Drew B The whole soundtrack is dope and the game itself too! This Mega Drive port is great with its rearranged soundtrack + an exclusive weapon (the red one when fully powered) + a different ending for each of the 5 loops. And to think that it was an early Mega Drive game (1989) makes it even more impressive!
Ahh 1 of my favorite game on Sega thanks to upload this I remember complete it at stage 2 world 1 once when I was 4 years old but forgot the title of game.
Still remember the spots to be in to avoid crap and what ship to use or not for certain levels. Ahhhh ... Love the rainbow super shot but the blue lasers at night with the lights off was AMAZING!!
The Sega genesis in my opinion was the last breath of retro gaming. The dividing line between retro gaming and higher graphics gaming. Reason is that the genesis gives you the vibe of retro gaming it's got a cartridge and you can still see the pixels.
Truxton (Tatsujin) is a classic mega drive version of the arcade game With ABSOLUTELY AWESOME graphics and STUNNING gameplay The levels are 2Fast 2Furious with Spectacular Boss battles Excellent power ups and AMAZING Soundtrack This is a classic Sega game with a vengeance 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
You know I discovered this trick by mistake! My mom gets very bad reactions from seeing the TV screen flash. One day she told me to get off the video games and I spited her by freezing the bomb over and over. To my surprise, everything on the screen disappeared.
I was never a big shoot em up fan. I did like this one , Radian Traid and Nemesis, pity I was never any good and any of them. Thank for the play through.
WTF, MadMatty? Truxton was not supposed to be beaten this way! I find it impossible to guide the spaceship with the speed fully upgraded and the screen full of small bullets to dodge! Unbelievable play!
This is an odd games. Very early Genesis title and it shows. The music is Master System FM Module stuff (Just a couple of FM channels), the sound effects have weird crackle and other defects to them and there's zero layering and animation in the background, which feels like one big canvas that you're flying over. The art style in interesting but not particularly great and death comes often, from everywhere and is often not particularly fair. Still, something about it all did captivate me enough to master and beat the game on Normal, which was one of the hardest Genesis shoot em up conquests I've done. By the way, I also own the PC Engine version. People will BS you that that version is better. It might seem like it at first, as the colors are more vibrant and the sound is less abrasive. However, as with a lot of PC Engine vertical shoot em up arcade ports, the screen is too zoomed in and low res, giving you less critical reaction time and there are a lot of technical limitations issues. For example, instead of filling the entire screen, the bomb effect now only takes less than half the screen and stuff starts flickering and disappearing when the the action gets too intense. Despite being a very early Genesis games with a lot of deficiencies of its own, I'd say that the Sega one is a smoother experience overall. Also, the PC Engine version seems quite a bit harder. Anyway, in my opinion, this is one of the precursors to the "bullet hell" genre, as the enemy projectile patterns get pretty intense and you do need to learn them pretty well, as simple reaction might not be enough.
This game won't knock your socks off with visual,but if you give it a chance, you'll be hooked! The opening waves seem rather generic as you wipe out red planes that approach in predictable patterns. The difficulty ramps nicely however, and once you reach the well-fortified space stations things really heat up

Man, I remember playing this game with my parents on the Sega. Thank you for uploading this!
Funny thing is when my dad bought a Sega Genesis we played this game together.
same here!! one of the best memories ^^ I managed to do a no death run in this game and someday perhaps a speedrun.

esse jogo marcou uma época inesquecível, uma relíquia do passado do grande "Mega-Drive "
Obra-prima !
E a bomba caveira no MD humilha até a do Arcade !
Tem o truxton dois continuação deste

Eu tenho no meu mega drive
Uma reliquia en qualquer coleçao e para mim um dos melhores shoot en up de sempre ao lado do lords of thunder do pc engine/ segacd
Fantastic shooter with a very special, unique vibe. The audio is eargasmic!
great shooting game ever on the sega genesis
Night Driver
Best shmup ever
Best space-themed game ever
Best game that has an x ever
Best game with 3 different spaceships ever
Best game released in 1988-1989 ever
Basically, one of my favorite games of all time! TRUXTOOOON!
Castlemaster712 Best game that has an X is Mega man X! Otherwise, you're pretty spot on
Castlemaster712 Have you beat it? The real ending? What is the best spaceship to you?
to me I love the red one
damn sega has the dopest games ever
I loved this game so much as a kid. It was one of my favorites. I especially loved getting the green upgrade, it felt so satisfying.
That music takes me back to the Sega Channel days. *tear*
And people claims that SNES had the better sound chip.
Kalle Andersson It was. it was better at outputting crappy muffled samples instead of real music.
Man, I played the heck out of this as a kid. Very well made shooter. The adrenaline kicks in when you get that 5th speed boost
...but I never played past the first round?! There are cutscenes?!?
58:18 -- "Tom"... is a chibi character...? With a Pokemon...?" Super Fighter"... what
1:57:12 -- oh you have got to be kidding me ROFL
I played the hell out of this game as a kid. Listening to Hybrid Theory on repeat and raging at the meteorite part of the game. Great memories!
Eu achava que era bom no Truxton, mas esse cara é de outro mundo, o cara até brinca com as naves inimigas. kkkkkk
Truxton fills the screen with effects that would make an SNES drool. No blinking. Hardly any screen flicker. This game is worth every penny it fetches today . . .
Great upload!
Fills the screen with a big black hud bar on the side ha ha ha
Spaceships of red blue and green - hear the alien ladies scream “WE WANT TRUXTON”
Gotta love that first stage music.
best genesis music ever
What? This has an ending? I can't believe it! This was a super hard game for me! Great job!
This game needs a port to Xbox, PC, and PS4 seriously. It’s so underrated...
This is the most beautiful and fearless run of truxton I've ever seen !! #YOU-ARE-TRUXTONGOD
the power of save-states
Classic Game Room. :3
He knows it's the best
mega drive é campeão em jogos de nave, nota 10, the best.
ABSOLUTA !!
This is the game I played 15 years ago and I really want to see this again to remind my momories.
Thank you for saving my childhood, Sir. ;D
Another classic game I forgot about. This is a great game and reminds me of my teen years playing my Sega.
Holy Crap! I need this game in my life like right now! And the music on the opening stage is AAAMMMAAAZZZIIINNNGG!
Try the PC engine version the sound is far faaaar better! ;-)
+emajansen
What?! xD music is subjective but IMO they're better on Mega Drive, more unique and memorable, but this version also has good sound effects while on PC Engine they're HORRIBLE, unbearable (and same for many others PC Engine games and even some PC Engine *CD* games which is lame, check Sapphire or Rayxanber III for examples...).

my life was back 25 years....
Really good games, good times, ;)
It's still a good game that can give u a good time.
Some shooters can be considered marathons.. this is a goddamn triathlon.
Look at this game. It's inviting you to play it.
Classic game room sent me here
This is the ultimate retro space shooter
Muito show!!!...Um grande clássico!!!...Parabéns!!!
If you didnt play this as a kiddo, you missed out on an eargasmic childhood 🤣
Ahh 1 of my favorite game on Sega thanks to upload this I remember complete it at stage 2 world 1 once when I was 4 years old but forgot the title of game.
I loved this game, it was my Favorit Game bye SEGA,thank you for uploading
Awesome shooter. Genesis MIDI music was just orgasmic in its first titles.
It's not MIDI
Music Macro Language (MML), not MIDI.
Music is so relaxing...
Esse rapaz joga muito parabéns eu jogo esse jogo desde 1990
Eu nasci entre os vídeos games mais minha infância foi marcada por esse jogo que pena que esses tempo não vai voltar mais
Hey guys, I think this speed is very fast to avoid all this shots, maybe, just an idea, but some kind of slow motion helped a lot, don´t you think?
Still remember the spots to be in to avoid crap and what ship to use or not for certain levels. Ahhhh ... Love the rainbow super shot but the blue lasers at night with the lights off was AMAZING!!
I used to call stage 3 the "bullshit" stage because of the insane amounts of B's and S's they give you!
I played this game alot when i was a kid,great game and supergreat sound on this one.
Whoever played this deserves a fucking trophy. You made it look way too easy. Lol. Well done!
Man, this is nostalgic
Your Gameplay is amazing!!
The Sega genesis in my opinion was the last breath of retro gaming. The dividing line between retro gaming and higher graphics gaming. Reason is that the genesis gives you the vibe of retro gaming it's got a cartridge and you can still see the pixels.
The SNES and the Genesis were the last true gasp for lo-res pixel art gaming, truly the 16 bit generation was awesome.
still have 2 cartridges of it on sega megadrive ^^ most awesome game of sega by my thoughts
All hail Lord Karnage!
Nothing like a good game of zapper while in fishnets.⚡♥
Amo esse jogo, ganhei recentemente um MEGA DRIVE mas esse jogo, to extremamente feliz e vivendo uma nostalgia gostosa ... esse jogo é top demais...
played first at the arcades. a memorable game
great game. I played this for years and never beat it. nice to finally see the end.
i beat the game at 40 years old but in easy level
14 years of searching finally i found it !
When that Lightning gun locks on to a enemy pretty impressive for Genesis
OH MY GOD the 2nd ending, that is the guy who controls the truxton ship thingie? I never knew that o.o
This was the best game growing up! could play for hours!
I played it on the arcade and was addicted. Best shoot em up ever made imo. They should import this to the consoles.
I love the music. Ree Ohta among others was responsible I believe.
I need this game back in my life.
Pretty fun playing this on a megadrive emulator on the psp cuz you can save and load at any point at the touch of a button
I got this game I love it im never saleing my sega genesis ever again
Megadrive/Genesis best console forever! Nothing will be equal ...
How can you thumb down this video? It's insane!
Weird snes fans prolly
@@Lightblue2222 People that can't handle blast processing
@Random_Person. I kinda like the music though. Anyone not born in the 80s or 90s I imagine would hate it
@@Random_Person. 🤣🤣 it's an acquired taste I reckon
@@Random_Person. Well.......sounds like you know a thing or 2 about the taste of shit, you're the expert 😆
Never knew this game had an actual ending, just assumed it was an old school token eater. good job dude.
Truxton (Tatsujin) is a classic mega drive version of the arcade game
With ABSOLUTELY AWESOME graphics and STUNNING gameplay
The levels are 2Fast 2Furious with Spectacular Boss battles
Excellent power ups and AMAZING Soundtrack
This is a classic Sega game with a vengeance 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
watching in 2018 XD may the legends live on
Truxton on Genesis is awesome port the music is awesome even Mark From Classic Game Room "TRUXTON WE WANT TRUXTON!!!!"
the bomb trick: use a bomb and press pause over and over again lol. One bomb becomes like 10
You know I discovered this trick by mistake! My mom gets very bad reactions from seeing the TV screen flash. One day she told me to get off the video games and I spited her by freezing the bomb over and over. To my surprise, everything on the screen disappeared.
I don't think it quite becomes 10 though. More like 1.3 bombs.
So basically the Mega Man 1 pause glitch?
Didn't thought he was going to handle Boss No. 4 without Skull Bombs. But he did on the last round!
finally this game is done! hopefully you guys do truxton 2 in the near future as well
Yeah it was best old school game one of the best one l remember that long time ago yes l beat it the hold game good memories memories
ESSE GAME NOS ANOS 90 ERA SURREAL!!!!!!
Really good game plus the stage 1 music is catchy as hell.
I only wish the Sega Genesis didn't speed up the soundtrack. Aside form that, it's an excellent port of the arcade game.
yeah it was a mistake that Masahiro Yuge later admitted. Wish there's a mod for fixing this
How do you get past the asteroids/rocks in stage 5 when you lose all your speed and power ups??? its impossible.
You can't. It sucks.
O melhor de todos os tempos ...
Was gonna get this for my Genesis, but it looks hard as hell. Expensive too.
Sega!!!
best shooter on the system
Best shooter. Super addictive.
There's a mobile phone of this also that came out in 2020...Awesome game!! So wonderful!!!
13:50 something is as far as I ever got.
I was never a big shoot em up fan. I did like this one , Radian Traid and Nemesis, pity I was never any good and any of them. Thank for the play through.
Is it just me, but the music when you beat all 5 stages makes me think about Voyager 2 in interstellar space after conquering 5 planets.
WTF, MadMatty? Truxton was not supposed to be beaten this way! I find it impossible to guide the spaceship with the speed fully upgraded and the screen full of small bullets to dodge!
Unbelievable play!
great watching this, i played the arcade version, completed it without loss of life and using bombs, doubt i could do that now lol
I've been looking for this game years ago !!! I have never passed stage 2 😅😅 but it was a great game
so many memories
when you missed the powerup at about 3:30 it looked like you did it on purpose... did you?
I almost screamed at my computer when that happened, lol

This is one of the best space shooters ever made a Genesis classic learn your game knowledge

Consegui chegar até o segundo final.
When I was a kid, I got white power, this power was the mixture of the three powers, and have not found information about it.
Five rounds. Above and beyond.
You are great.
curti muito esse jogo top 10 dos jogos de mega
Old School Rules!!!
almost cant believe what i just witnessed.
Sega makes the best space shooter games
Big big big respect 👏👏👏
Respect !!!
A day in life for Voyager 1 and 2 it looks like.
Thanks will remember top score !!
What do you mean tool-assisted? as in a joystick? Either way, great video! This brings back memories =) I loved this game but I never beat it!
Save states.
