There’s little more than one level playable, but what is there is quite impressive, as boss after boss march onto the screen, from a giant walker to a mutant with two heads.Īdmittedly, it looks less impressive than the likes of Gunstar Heroes, but it’s certainly more impressive than a lot of today’s releases. Throughout the game he can draw on a selection of masks, each of which gives him new powers such as flame-throwing, twin-shot or laser beams. The game is designed around one player who takes the role of the Alien Soldier, a very serious looking character. This time however, never saw the light of day! Only now have Sega decided to reveal this game – known as Alien soldier – and there’s a vague possibility that it could still be released. A game that used similar programming code as Gunstar Heroes. Sucks to be Power Golf.Around the same time as Gunstar Heroes was released last year, Sega had another Treasure game lined up for release. Unfortunately for Power Golf, we've already resigned ourselves to only purchasing games which feature either a Tanooki Suit or a Seven Force robot this week. On the TurboGrafx-16 side, we'll have the option of buying Power Golf for 600 Wii points. And if they do, that speaks more to their character than Alien Soldier's qualities. Hardcore gamers won't regret spending 900 Wii points on this one.

Treasure's classic run-and-gun boss-travaganza for the Sega Genesis, Alien Soldier, will also be available for download tomorrow, having previously appeared in North America only through the ill-fated Sega Channel. We'll sleep tonight with the bills gripped tightly in our fists, smiling as we dream about spending the entirety of tomorrow ensconced in a giant green boot. We've already pulled 500 Wii points out of our wallet, just waiting to hand the cash over to anyone who'll give us the game in return. 3, a title which many feel to be the NES's finest product, with this week's Virtual Console update. Heralding the release of Super Mario Galaxy this November 12th, Nintendo plans to deliver Super Mario Bros.
