Videocast – Galaxy Force Retrospective

This article was originally posted on January 11, 2011 in the Passagem Secreta (in Portuguese) blog, and with the permission from the author (Rafael Fernandes) and the founder of the blog (Marcos Valverde), I publish it here translated into English.
Videocast – Galaxy Force Retrospective

This is the third video I make to the blog… Consequently, I can state that we have a Videocast, right? Well, we will see! The idea is to make at least one video per month related to some topic little known in gaming, which would deserve at least a little bit of prominence among the crowd of the Retrogamer Folliesphere. But of course I can not promise anything, all the more so because video editing is very exhaustive, although pleasant. Without further ado, let's get straight to the topic.

Galaxy Force is a game quite remembered among fans of Sega. But I doubt very much that few have actually played the arcade, that is light years ahead of ports released for the Mega Drive and Master System, which are the most popular. In fact, there should be S.S.T. Band fans here who barely have any idea of how this game is (#ThereISaidIt). In the following video, I point out the series, as well as deal with these terrible ports, with some trivia and jokes.

Ah, you do not need to remind me that the game was also ported to the FM Towns in 1990 and the Sega Saturn in 1998. I know that these ports existed, and that the Sega Saturn port ran the game with half of the frame rate of the arcade; to not hold anyone with the long duration of the video, I chose to highlight the most popular ports.

Enjoy it! And do not forget to comment!
