- A playthrough of Thunder Force 3 on highest difficulty setting without dying. While this game is much easier than other Thunder Force games, it is still hard to survive on Mania difficulty. It is best to start from Haides stage: this way the last stage before Cerberus battleship will be Seiren where you can renew your shield for the last time (no shield power ups can be found on final stages).

So orchestrated, sound, gameplay, a true moment in gaming history, such talented individuals
I first played Thunder Force III in April 1991. I never forgot such a wonderful experience. It was the best shoot-em-up on Megadrive, it's clear!
I'd give the nod to Thunder Force IV, longer game, more challenging, the absolute pinnacle of the series. Not to mention some nice special effects in some stages, like flying over that desert stage, and what looks to be a sandstorm going on.
This was my childhood right here. I can still remember all the sound fx clearly. What a great game.
This was the game of my childhood! I miss those days!
I got the JP MegeDrive 4 months before the official UK release version, I got with ThunderForce 3 that had just been released at the time, June/July of 1990. I played this game to death, I also used to play this game through with no death and end with around 26 lives. I committed everything to memory!
Anyway, fast forward 31 years, I recently made myself a RetroPie, and this was the first game I had to hunt down. It amazing how you forget, I can't barely complete 1 level now.
25 YEARS LATER I FOUND WHATS THE NAME OF THIS GAME... THE BEST DAYS OF MY CHILDHOOD
dude me too sooo happy i finally figured it out
This was the first game i owned and played in Mega Drive
me too . Stay with my all junior high school even now .
Just got an authentic one for 9.99 lol
I spent the last hour watching the next game!
"Laser!!" "Wave!!" "One Up!!" "Shield!!" "Hunter!!"
I started rewatching the gameplays for this game about 5 years ago, and it literally had one video. Glad that there are more people that know this gem. Not running into the environment is one of the hardest parts of this game imo. We literally had sonic 1, last battle, this, battle toads double dragon, mortal kombat series, atomic runner and robokid. What a good time. Nostalgia city!
Great bunch of games there 👍.
Also, this soundtrack through! Enough said!
The Hydra stage is my favorite ever
The soundtrack is amazing
i like all of the soundtrack
Techno Soft. This music stayed in my head.
Played this in 1991. Still the king of shooters.
after TF IV
@@Antonio-hx7yh before TF IV, this one is better.
I love how it starts playing the stage theme on the map screen before the next level starts
Yeah that's something that's not in the AC version or the arcade version. It's only on Genesis. :)
Awesome walkthrough! Amazing job, my friend! :)
People say the Genesis is garbage. Lol, show them this! I'm so fucking sick of hearing how Link to the Past is such a good game. Real gamers know about the gems on the Genesis!!!!
💯 The Sega Genesis was far more superior than Super Nintendo. The SN was more popular but Genesis had the better games.
I just started playing this game, do you have to beat it to unlock mania mode? I have the sega mini
As a SNES-NES fanboy when I was kid, I support your statement: Thunder Force III and IV along with other titles as Gunstar Heroes or Castlevania: Bloodlines showed the true potential of the Genesis.
@@1Corinthians15.1-4 Had I known then that the Thunder Force series existed, I wouldn't have let my sister sell our Genesis to buy a PS1 way back in the 90's
That level with the animated lava....eye popping at the time. For a great little game I always recall this was hard to get hold of second hand.
Volverlo a ver me llena el corazón.
Great gameplay. This game very much reminds me of Herzog Zwii. Same kinda music sound, same sound effects used. fond memories
Anyone remember mean machines games mag? This was rated about 98 percent in it and you can see why, it pushed the mega drive to its absolute limits thanks to the brilliant game programmers
and then they pushed it even more with TF4
love the music! very classical when i was at high school!
This is classic! I played this 33 years ago with my sega MD2
I love the soundtrack. The Seiren stage reminds me of an 80s Japanese Pop disco music.
You are insane! Well played! :)
Awesome soundtrack. Stage 5 is the best track imo.
Wow, thank you for the memories!
Thunder force 3 is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING and AWESOMELY AMAZING
May the thunder force be with you always 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Soundtrack of the forever. Bestest game,.
Aaah the memories... thanks for reminding me that at least i was once a happy person
Finnaly i find it... my childhood.....
Wow! This cart could give Truxton a run for its money...
Great playthrough!
I definitely remember this game. It was one of my favorites. I beat it several times but I don't think it was ever on mania. Don't remember. Either way all the levels were always hard for me no matter what. This game always had that true arcade feel. Loved it.
Mania is a level of difficulty well beyond the hardest. This level was usually achieved through joystick commands when entering the options menu. This also happened on streets of rage 2.
wow this game is a legend.great soundtracks,levels.sick.want remake in same vibe:)
Wow, those last bosses didn't seem like they had to take much damage to be destroyed, especially for the game played at the highest difficulty. Any way you cut it, kudos to you! :)
"Claw!.... Sever!... Shield!... Lancer!... Wave!... Fire!.... Hunter!..."
Играл в эту игру ещё пацаном семи лет. Не мог найти, а назван е даже не знал. Спасибо за отличный контент!
13:11 use your missile weapon, it kills the bosses nearly immediately.
El mejor juego de naves que he jugado hasta la fecha.
No, nunca había visto ese nombre. Voy a buscarlo a ver que tal.

oigan como se cambia la dificultad del juego?
Black Zero talvez antes de que se ponga la portada hay que presionar en un orden fijo algunos botones
a mi me gusto mas el 4
*Thanks for the TF3 hookup! I partially played this game because if I remember well, I rented it along with M.U.S.H.A., another great Genesis shooter.*
Aka aleste
Ahh.....
In 2018 Still Miss Ending OST
From 9 to 27 I still remember ending OST
I'm really bad at such games when I was young 😂 But I used to watch my Dad play when he returns from work and he completed the game. I think this video's gonna be a bitter sweet memory for me one day. My fave tune was Back to the Fire! But this is played in MANIA level gosh you pro!
love this game and the music
siempre me voy a recordar este juego , a este el ultimo día de mi vida.fue el primer juego de la génesis que tuve
Loved the water stage here. SEIREN
Great game! Great player!
The best OST ever!
The"twins"can be defeated with FADE easily ;-)
Loved this game back in the day!
Gracias por hacerme feliz en la infancia
Good skill bro! 👍
The 4th game was always my favourite. Great game series.
Long life for the music composers: Toshihary YAMANISHI & Tomomi OHTANI! ❤🎶👌🎈✨😋🍬😜
I finally see the end of this great game!!!
I literally played this last week ,took me wayyyy back
wow..in my teenage days never get to complete this game.the soundtrack is awsome as i recalled
6,477,350? Damn, what a score!
Always played this when I was at school early 90s one of my favourite game intros press pause then up 10 times then down c until you get all weapons then press a to get claw
The thunderous saga deserves to be in the shooter hall of fame with legends as Gaiares, The Steel Empire, trouble shooter aka battle maina, bio hazard battle aka crying, r type insector x, et al
Wow. I never realised just how much the track Gyges, Can you help me please from Tyrian was modelled on the first stage of this game.
absolute masterpiece, only bested by TF IV
To access the configuration menu press A+B+C+START !
I love the game n its music are well made
TITLE THEME ROCKS!
Love this game n da soundtrack is da best.
Legend
One of the Nick Arcade season 1 video challenges
I really love Thunder Force 3 Thema song
i completed this game on mania without dying too. during ending if you tried pressing your buttons the pilot sitting in the cockpit will wave at you.
I also beat this on mania without dying, back in the day. I loved this game, played it all the time. I was so excited when I bought it.. Side scrolling shooters were my favorite games. Wasn't terribly good at most of them but just something about the sound effects and music, and everything in this game that I got really good at it.
not only that but on the second picture also 1 of the characters blinks providing you hold the button down if you have auto fire on
Thunder spirits in my opinion still has the best soundtracks out of all the games
Legendary Game !
Played this for the first time today on my Mega drive mini and damn, its hard! I get through 3 of 5 planets before end boss all the time.
The music in this game is still incredible (Going full nerd right now ) Part 3 was the only one I ever owned in the series.
I owned 2, 3 and 4 on the Genesis. All awesome. I have to admit that I do not like the top view stages of TF2, on the other hand the side scrolling stages are fantastic!
@@sneakyracerpr Yeah Side Scrolling fits TF3 and 4 very well..I want more and hopefully, they should be ported into iphone and Nintendo Switch someday!
Best game in sega also nice sound
As a child I also beat the game with no deaths, but now I can even beat the game.
Judging from the story ending the makers of this game seemed very wary of AI and very much against it at that time. 25:35
Looking back I really can't believe I used to play this??alol compared to video games now there's no comparison
For the record, this is the greatest song song in the world
Muito massa cara.
Love you ❤️😊
12:08 the bass🙉
When I played first, the planet Hydra
30 years of Thunder Force III on June 8, 2020
What's with your game soundtrack? It sounds like someone transposed an octave-ish down on the melody.
(On Hades)
I rented this as a kid. I only got to the final stage.
Stage 5: Cerberus (Target: Cerberus, Weak Point: Core System)
Stage 6: Orn Base (Target: Off Luck, Weak Point: Extra Weapon Bay)
Final Stage: Orn Core (Target: Cha Os, Weak Point: Body)
I just think Targets and weak points reveals in some of Thunder Force III stages.
Something I never noticed till it was pointed put to me: the Gargoyle boss comes back in different forms. In Lightening Force it's the Diver, and it returns in a few later games as well. Kind of a cool detail.
Well said
The same starting stage. Since you can collect all kinds of weapon in this stage.
I can just tell U, that U R from another planet! Maybe an alien! 😂😂😂
no puedo creer que cuando er niño yo pasaba esto sin perder ninguna vida
The Music 🖖🏿
con que boton se cambia de dificultad?
levels were tough as nails but bosses were just had way too few hit points to be challenging
Woaugh, what happened to Haides' music ?!
esta muy buena esto es divertido
I couldn’t remember the name to this game
This game looks better than IV to me
How activate the initial options?
Still have my TF3 cartridge around the house somewhere. I remember using Hunter to get through most of the game.
Is lightning force the updated version of this game because I swear you have the same weapons it’s just got better graphics on the genesis
voice: t says the weapon power up( go! fire! laser! hunter! shever!
Great game😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Me da ansiedad y estres y poquito epilepsia cuando pasaban bichos rápidos y cuando jugué
10:20 the music .
i had this game memories
The soundtrack in Thunder Force III is way better than Lightening Force’s soundtrack. These are tunes that I can hum and they stick with you. I can’t find anything like that in Lightening Force.
I always choose hydra planet to start
FIRAYYYY!
