    These games were fun. I remember beating Jungle Strike after weeks of trying and failing as a kid. I had to hype myself up after a few days break each time before trying again.
    It's really repetitive with some pick up/drop off missions at times but when getting to blow up so much shit made it worth while.

      Yeah I want to try Jungle / Urban strike sometime later.

    One of my all-time favorite Genesis games. I played it so much I could do everything in the first mission without the map.

    • @mikematei

      Yeah I think it's one of my favorites too. I don't have it memorized though

    Edit: In case you were wondering what the chat was talking about, there is a "secret" co-pilot you can find on Chapter 1 who isn't on the radar/map. He can shoot further making combat a bit easier. You can sneak into range where the enemy won't attack you if you are very careful and methodical about it. I think you need to use the password after the mission to select the new co-pilot.
    I loved this series growing up! I remember my dad laughing at the ending with George Bush shaking your hand...
    Jungle and Urban are also good... Don't forget the PS 1 also has sequels Soviet Strike and Nuclear Strike which are also quite good! But they definitely get harder with each sequel. I could never beat the last mission of Nuclear Strike.

      "FutureCop LAPD" is actually the sixth game in the series (originally named "Future Strike"), but they ended up changing a LOT about the game to make it a separate title.

    Hi Mike! I had Desert Strike on Sega Mega Drive when i was a kid but found it too hard so i just watched my old man play it. Great game, What a Classic. 😙👌

  • @outlaw2747
    @outlaw2747 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is easily one of the hardest in the series. The lowest armor, and half of the enemies could do 100 Damage per hit. But it was still an amazing game. It took me forever as a kid to beat this without dying.

  • @johnkalyvas4838
    @johnkalyvas4838 ปีที่แล้ว

    The nuclear power plant in the 4th level was protected by two radar stations according to the mission info. That's why it's defenses were so strong. I think the enemies were doing double damage.

  • @krisfrederick5001
    @krisfrederick5001 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Somehow we ended up playing Jungle Strike as kids and not knowing about this. Still loved it none the less. I kind of like that there is no music in the combat action, it almost makes it more intense.

    You missed Jake, he’s the best co-pilot, he’s the top MIA on the map of the first level! And destroy his crashed F-15! I think that’s what someone was trying to say after you completed the first level!

    Great stream Mike! I enjoyed it a lot although this time I lurked. But nice sometimes just hearing it in the background. For me this is energetic ASMR. You might also enjoy playing Desert Fighter. I borrowed it from my friend many years ago, I’ve still got the instruction manual somehow 😄you’re controlling a plane in that game and it’s on the SNES.

    This game, and Resident Evil, had major influences on my life in ways I can't fully explain in a single TH-cam comment. While I vastly prefer the SNES version for the sound and music, the game itself is iconic. It also represent a time when EA didn't have the negative press it does today. I'm very happy you did a playthrough of this game, period.

    47:58 yes the game's Code is brilliantly made, but sad news about the main programmer in this game, after the unexpected groundbreaking success of this game, EA sacked off the guy so he could not see the profits of his own creation... let's hope I'm wrong about that last part, but that's the version of the story I read somewhere... EA did the same thing with the brilliant creator of Road Rash

    My story with the strike-series was this:
    I played desert strike at a friends house on his amiga and is was so awesome that i went to a games-shop the next day and bought urban-strike for the snes.
    It is the worst version possible! MASSIVE slowdowns, lower field of view and a realy bad button-layout...
    Man.. I was pissed ;) especially when i saw urban-strike running smooth on megadrive/genesis when i played it at another friends house... His dad had all three of them...

    Also how fitting that just in time for the theme of the game Mike got a haircut suited for a military career LOL
    As for the game...it is hard to tell. I see the love you and everybody else have for this game but I just...don't feel anything about it. I have never played it before but looking at it and seeing you play it...has not given me any drive to try it out. I just feel...nothing about it. I'd rather try out any of the other games you mentioned as your favorite Genesis games than this one and I cannot even tell why that is. I am glad that you enjoyed it though and that's the most important part.
