A fantastic SNES shooter that constantly floods the screen with sprites yet never seems to choke on slowdown (*ahem* Gradius III and Super R-Type, I'm looking at you here). That, and you can rock out to the Space Jam song while playing. How random is that?
for one, its not from Space Jam really, its an instrumental adaptation of Y'all Ready For This by Jock Jams, and further the team behind Call of Duty? Activision didnt make this game, they published it, Athena was the developer, also Activision does NOT have a good track record of ANYTHING particularly the CoD games, their largely a blight on the game industry and have watered down the First Person genre because theyve created a false hierarchy where other companies think "to make an FPS that sells, we have to clone CoD" and that has largely been poison for the genre which has to led to a serious decrease in diversity of games so no, i dont think mentioning CoD is of any substance here
I bought this game for my Snes on a whim and I was not disappointed. It is the best shmup on the Snes without a doubt. I would go as far as to say while it isn't better than the mighty Thunder Force IV for the Genesis it definitely gives it a run for its money in certain spots. What a game!
Great video just amazing!! My playthrough I struggled to get to the end boss that I still cant beat I barely have 3 lifes you have 8! Wow just blows my mind GG
Wait, why is the final boss a blatant copy of R-Type's Dobkeratops? Also, the mechs in the ending pic look like the one on the box cover of Metal Warriors.
They used this music because they thought it would appeal to Americans better and 2Unlimited were big at the time. All part of the consumerism and marketing. Thank the sound engineer and producers for the American release for this mishap because the funny thing is the Japanese original release had better music.
Space shooters were a dime a dozen on the SNES. They probably assumed the new soundtrack would help it stand out, like how that western release of Phalanx had an old dude with a banjo on the cover.
@@LAZY-RUBY That actually makes sense more than the consumerism theory because while both do sound fitting, the idea of licensed music in video games was relatively unheard of at the time(this was before Tony Hawk's Pro Skater popularized that idea, albeit to the fault of resulting in some companies like EA simply just having all of their sports games to have licensed music instead of the great music they had of their own beforehand).
incorrect...its by Jock Jams and called "Y'all Ready For This" its just a version without vocals and poorer music quality, it was a SNES after all, not a live concert, 2 Unlimited made a remix of that, which is probably why you thought it was them but their not the ones who originally made the song
i stand corrected, just went and double checked that, odd, i looked it up prior (when i made the previous comment) and found the dates you provided to be reversed but checking again i found your info to be correct
dude the whole soundtrack is jock jams WTF I NEED THIS I got this game confused with that piece of crap Blazeon and passed this up multiple times when I come across the cart :(:(:(
No one heard of the original music? When I heard the Japanese originals version I felt cheated by the American heads of Nintendo when they gave us the release here. I wished I had grown up to this game with the original score instead. I see people loved this soundtrack. I personally hated what the American counterpart did with the game swapping the original score for a cheap bait to get consumers using 2unlimiteds rise to fame sound to cash in. it just didn’t age well. 2unlimited was good for their 2 hit wonder and though the idea was cool to think what they would do for a video game in terms of their sound, the ended up just recycling catchy sound that made them famous. the sound was a product of the times and this game will be a lifetime and should be uniquely memorable. 2unlimited sound style is too 90’s and didn’t age well for this game. Not to mention it was just practically the same riff and keys recycled in all levels from their main 2 hits. It would have been neat if they did an original soundtrack and not recycle and remix the chords like how Psykosonik (another techno 90’s band) did for anther SNES game X-Kalibur. Prefer the original Biometal music from Japan. Now that is just more unique and still sounds good. Not hating on 2unlimied just rather keep them as the 90’s memory of those classic songs and not re hear it on this cause all I think of is “y’all ready for this” when playing. Doesn’t even go well with the gameplay.
Are you sick of hearing the same drap jazz fusion in every shmup? are you sick of being mislead by the cover art because you are not charlie daniels shooting up monsters? were look at you phalanx. come get Biometal who's japanese soundtrack is drab jazz fusion like I mentioned before, but us americans and europeans get the pulsating and groovy soundtrack made by the radically awesome 2 unlimited. Biometal where monsters and jock jams collide. Biometal is a bland shmup in japan activision really takes liberties seriously just to make a quick buck so they licensed the soundtrack from eurodance act 2 unlimited 2 bucks so they can get the rental and sales charts through the roof, so don't this localization seriously.
The intro story as a kid always cracked me up and still does.
"A computer analysis showed that the BM's are increasing in number!"
Bowel movements are totally dangerous! -nods-
Baby Mommas!
Well, you ARE in deep shit considering how difficult the game is...
Finally found this game. Could never remember the name.
Same lol I remember the soundtrack and that was it
Intro reminds me of 2 Unlimited
This game was awesome but super hard after a point
Lol me too
@@duncan3998because it is 2 Unlimited
We paid for the rights to this song so we're going to use it, damn it!
2 UNLIMITED - Get Ready For This
One of the best shooters I ever owned! Music and Gameplay Is still Awesome!
A fantastic SNES shooter that constantly floods the screen with sprites yet never seems to choke on slowdown (*ahem* Gradius III and Super R-Type, I'm looking at you here).
That, and you can rock out to the Space Jam song while playing. How random is that?
+NintendoComplete The music at the start got me pumped for the rest of the video :D
+Sylvester Ashcroft The music was pure Space Jam meets Mortal Kombat.
What kind of music do you spect from the company behind Call of Duty xD!
NintendoComplete
Play the super Famicom one, this has a completely different soundtrack.
for one, its not from Space Jam really, its an instrumental adaptation of Y'all Ready For This by Jock Jams, and further the team behind Call of Duty? Activision didnt make this game, they published it, Athena was the developer, also Activision does NOT have a good track record of ANYTHING particularly the CoD games, their largely a blight on the game industry and have watered down the First Person genre because theyve created a false hierarchy where other companies think "to make an FPS that sells, we have to clone CoD" and that has largely been poison for the genre which has to led to a serious decrease in diversity of games
so no, i dont think mentioning CoD is of any substance here
This game is like a reverse Siivagunner rip
y'all ready for this?
Yeah

i still have this game
I was't ready for this
Biometal you say? Time for a Megamerge!
Ooh, a jockjams henshin sequence! Sounds fun!
From Megaman ZX. In that game, Vent and Aile acquire the powers of past fallen Reploids through the Biometals, which is the same name as this game.
finally, a comment of culture
The 2 unlimited mudic tracks
Mildly gay
The ost to this game is virtually -identical- to my middle school gym class. O_O
This game goes hard
Great video just amazing!! My playthrough I struggled to get to the end boss that I still cant beat I barely have 3 lifes you have 8! Wow just blows my mind GG
Thank you! I'll def agree, it's wicked hard. Too much at times.
@@NintendoCompleteYou are ridiculously good, awesome playthrough raw talent
@@CharlesFitzgerald-pm5uk Thanks, I appreciate it!
Wait, why is the final boss a blatant copy of R-Type's Dobkeratops? Also, the mechs in the ending pic look like the one on the box cover of Metal Warriors.
TWILIGHT ZONE !!! 2 UNLIMITED !! ✌🏻
While listening to the first stage soungtrack of Biometal- Mortal Kombaaaaaaaat!!!
Ah yes, Jock Jams the video game
WOW 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
So was Gradius has an 2 Unlimited tribute?
The soundtrack is still good 🔥
2 unlimited original sound tracks
It's just SNES arrangements of the 2 Unlimited songs
are you rdy for this
Oh shit. Don't forget the spirit fingers, everybody!
Man, I could never get through Stage 3 as a kid xD
Same here I’m sure this guy had some serious hours to play that lvl lol
Here's the question tho, why did they use licensed music in the american release?
They used this music because they thought it would appeal to Americans better and 2Unlimited were big at the time. All part of the consumerism and marketing. Thank the sound engineer and producers for the American release for this mishap because the funny thing is the Japanese original release had better music.

It definitely worked. Two decades later and this game is still remembered as "that shmup on the SNES with 2Unlimited music" lol
7:50 músic name
Victor Bermudez 2 Unlimited - Get Ready For This
actually its: Jock Jams - Y'all Ready For This but a purely instrumental version
incorrect...its by Jock Jams and called "Y'all Ready For This" its just a version without vocals and poorer music quality, it was a SNES after all, not a live concert, 2 Unlimited made a remix of that, which is probably why you thought it was them but their not the ones who originally made the song
Lavos2007 I do believe that the song was written and preformed by 2 Unlimited. The song came out in 1991. The fist Jock Jam didn't come out till 1995.
i stand corrected, just went and double checked that, odd, i looked it up prior (when i made the previous comment) and found the dates you provided to be reversed but checking again i found your info to be correct
I play this game and realy dont remenber this technohouses musics. Thats realy weird.
Maybe you played the Japanese version. It had a different score
lmao the music 😆
2 Unlimited
Que a música do grupo de dance Music dos anos 90 2 unlimited está presente nesse jogo é impressionante e ficou sensacional 🥰❤❤🎮🙋♂️
What a fucking weird game. I vaguely remember renting this at Blockbuster.
This game makes me think of a Xenomorph dressed in a Chicago Bulls uniform.
Esse jooj é curtinho inté
Mortal Kombat!!!!
Con esa música ❤❤❤❤
SpaceJam??
2:22 Mortal Kombat!
Are you ready for this?
I prefer the original Japanese version, much better and exciting soundtracks, that sick version ...
dude the whole soundtrack is jock jams WTF I NEED THIS I got this game confused with that piece of crap Blazeon and passed this up multiple times when I come across the cart :(:(:(

The exposition is a bit much
Hey!!!
Looks nice game but, as for robo aleste, the music is awful
A great looking game, but I'm not a big fan of the music.
LMAO this music isn't actually in the original Japanese version even.
hm, lots of flicker and slowdowns. With stage 3 beginning, it looks low budget production.
damn good music store, but this game otherwise feels like an inferior/uninspired R-Type/Gradius to me.
Youre inferior
A complete knockoff of R-type they even play the same sound effects.
NBA SHMUPTIME!!!!
Juega excelente, yo soló llego al nivel 3 y en modo easy, malisimo para jugar
the music rocks
spaceship games Are the best
El juego es muy bueno pero usan demasiado la misma música llega un momento en que te hartas de esa musica
Ne esta hermosa, yo no me arte al contrario harta si dificultad toda tryhard
Are you sick of hearing the same drap jazz fusion in every shmup? are you sick of being mislead by the cover art because you are not charlie daniels shooting up monsters? were look at you phalanx. come get Biometal who's japanese soundtrack is drab jazz fusion like I mentioned before, but us americans and europeans get the pulsating and groovy soundtrack made by the radically awesome 2 unlimited.

The music kills this game.....
The music in this shooter is the worse I ever heard in a game in all this years. Funck this music is shit.
This music SUCKS.
