This was always one of my favorite arcade games, right up there with Crisis Zone. Watching the enemies get knocked around by your fire, seeing them take visible damage- there was such a visceral satisfaction to that.
My childhood favorites. I used to play this game along with Gunblade NY all the time when I was a little kid. I have both of them on the Wii so I can play at home. No quarters required
This game was ridiculously EPIC Not only was the gameplay such an epic fast paced visual effect that tested your vertigo but, if you ever saw the arcade machine itself, you knew you were in for a fun play~ Two model jet ski's that swayed with the direction you were moving, a model uzi guncon mounted at the front that had kickback to let you feel the rapid fire. Needless to say, you couldn't exactly dual wield 1st & 2nd player gun controllers because of the machine's structure but, this was one of those games with so much to offer from its machine that, you could get an enjoyable kick out of playing it in 1 player.
Dude I loved this game, if only because of the giant yellow machine guns that vibrated when you fired on screen. It was also super satisfying to shoot things. I think a new game for the Switch would be really cool to make.
You can use the nunchucks to aim, and the built in rumble feature can mimic shots. Plus if done similarly to this, it'd be kinda cartoonish and light-hearted, which would compliment Nintendo very well.
For sure, the haptics really make this series stand out. I have one of the LA Machineguns rumble guns sitting in my room. Not sure if the motor works nor what to do with it but was thinking of one day building some sort of VR project with it.
The very intricate attention to detail of Los Angeles,the impressive storyline,and many other excellent progressive notes.Sega has really hit the groovy mark on this one!!!
it was all thanks to Yu Suzuki. I do not like Shenmue but I bought the third game just to support Yu Suzuki because he made my childhood amazing by designing the model 1-3 arcade boards
This and Gunblade are still awesome today. What's unique about them from other on-rails shooters is that your gunship *moves dynamically*. It will swerve around to get better firing angles and actually tries to dodge enemy missiles on it's own, you know, like a pilot is trained to do instead of hover in place like an idiot. You can't always dodge everything and you'll need to shoot some missiles down, but it actually feels like you're in a ship that's tactically flying around and making the most of it's aerial superiority instead of a floating box that only moves to a preset point and can't dodge anything.

Used to love light-gun arcade games but don't recall playing this one. This is one of those games where there's so much going on that I probably wouldn't have been able to comprehend it lol.
Me and my dad used to play this everytime we went to the arcade. I never knew how competitive my dad was until we played this game. Always had to get the most points 😅
Funny thing was I use to work at Gameworks Arcade in Ontario Ca. and the Vegas stage had a different background. It had a GameWorks right next to the Coke bottle where it was for real.
The Las Vegas stage is amazing to me. Everything is pretty much right where it's supposed to be on blvd/Tropicana. The Luxor Pyramid is waaay in the back past Mandalay, and they didnt throw in the "iconic" neon cowboy.
I normally use a mouse for Wii games rather than a Wii remote, since I use an emulator. I did plan to play the Wii version eventually, but I'm in no hurry to do it, since I already did the arcade version of both games.
I can take a look at this tomorrow, but I don't remember running into any trouble on this game before. Are you using a regular lightgun? I have only played this game with a mouse.
I tested it out and it seems to me like you just click in the calibration screen and move the cursor to all corners of the windows so that min and max is 0 and 255. I found that my mouse cursor didn't 100% match the in game cursor, but I would hide my regular mouse cursor for this.
Gunner 1: "Killing squads of bad guys, gratuitous amount of property damage, civilian casualties and billions of dollars in expended ammunition. That's how it's done!" Gunner 2: "Damn right." Gunner 1: "Now, let's go home and play some video games." Gunner 2: "I'll get the nachos." Gunner 1: "No can do. They're still rebuilding the store after our last visit."
Hey... I wanna ask an arcade game.. Its shooting with gun (physically) identic to lamachineguns The theme is about army war... I only remember to shoot "ammo" for continuous shoot.. If not, it will shoot 3round- 3 round-3round And the first stage boss is vs comanche helicopter.... Thank you
@@mokujin6507 This game is 3D right? Also sort of sounds like Behind Enemy Lines, but I'm not sure about that. It shouldn't be super hard to find, because there were a limited number of games of this type.
Y'know, at some point during that third mission the bad guys have to have realized that the amount of money they could have potentially earned from that Casino Heist couldn't cover the loss of all the Military-grade hardware they were throwing at the player. I mean, by the time the bosses showed up, the bad guys had to be thinking "I don't care what it costs any more, I WANT THEM DEAD!"
This was always one of my favorite arcade games, right up there with Crisis Zone. Watching the enemies get knocked around by your fire, seeing them take visible damage- there was such a visceral satisfaction to that.
I remember the rumbling floor everytime an explosion happened on screen. Absolutely made the game even more intense.
My childhood favorites. I used to play this game along with Gunblade NY all the time when I was a little kid. I have both of them on the Wii so I can play at home. No quarters required
AMF87 how to play this game pc via emulator please guide me??
Who remembers the shakey guns every time you fired?
Over Baked Pie ah yes, I put my chin on them when I was young because it felt relaxing when it was shaking XD.
Absolutely. Back in 2000 at my local GameWorks, I always used both at the same time. Impossible to control, but a total rush!
I only have (played) the Wii version, which have vibration option.
I remember these. I still play Time Crisis when I go to arcades
I use both guns for full satisfaction xD
This game was ridiculously EPIC

Brings back memories of going to the arcade in my home town and shooting those giant plastic guns that rumble as you shoot them at a big screen!
yeah good old days
Sega were GODS of the arcade world. 60fps or NOTHING!!
it was all thanks to Yu Suzuki. I do not like Shenmue but I bought the third game just to support Yu Suzuki because he made my childhood amazing by designing the model 1-3 arcade boards
also namco is a god for make arcade games with these 3d graphics in the 90s
@@tHeWasTeDYouTh Naomi was the star of their arcade boards. It was all downhill after that.
Eagle rock California
Not to mention most of their 3D games were so high in resolution.
YES!!! Yes yes YES!!! I’ve been trying to find this game forever! I used to play this at Kahunaville with my dad all the time!

This was in Dave & Busters for a lonnng time.. I was devastated when they got rid of it.

I remember when I was a kid I called this: "The Terrorist Robots"
Lol
I mean that's pretty much what it is :3
Man I pump so many quarters in this game when it first came out and beat it every time and loved it!!!
Me and my dad used to play this everytime we went to the arcade. I never knew how competitive my dad was until we played this game. Always had to get the most points 😅
I loved the shaking guns! I was that guy who put in enough credits to hog both guns to myself XD
It's crazy this game was in the arcades in 1998, that's over 23 years ago
Brings back memories of this game at the old Gameworks Las Vegas located in The Strip before it got closed down in 2012.
This was the first game I always headed towards when I went to the local arcade as a kid.

I love SEGA so much. I really *REALLY* wanted this in Sonic Forces.
Nice avatar
What do you mean by that? Did you want this as a bonus game in Forces? Or a level in the game like this?
@@jaypostromboli-jpgamertv-457 Oh I guess this was an old comment but I dunno I guess as a bonus game. Would been cool or something.
@@chocobochick5390 Agreed. Yakuza does that as well. Maybe it'll find it's way into a Yakuza game.
2:29 That moment Democrats really love.
Looked nothing like downtown LA but still fun none the less. I miss the old generation of games. They were actually fun and exciting.
This game had some really cool designs in it. Both in terms of the environment and the enemies.
This was my go-to game when my friends and I would go to the arcade
Funny thing was I use to work at Gameworks Arcade in Ontario Ca. and the Vegas stage had a different background. It had a GameWorks right next to the Coke bottle where it was for real.
My all-time favorite FPS game. Defeated every time I played it.
Las Vegas is my favorite stage because they pack waaaaaay too many cameos and parodies in.
I played this game last month in Akihabara Hey.
This is the first time I've seen this game played without any graphical glitches!!
Magnifique jeu qui ma apporté tellement de joie, merci !!!
The Las Vegas stage is amazing to me. Everything is pretty much right where it's supposed to be on blvd/Tropicana. The Luxor Pyramid is waaay in the back past Mandalay, and they didnt throw in the "iconic" neon cowboy.
My hands went numb just watching this
Depends on the location, there will be a shaky guns or not.
If I was on the helicopter in this game and the pilot was flying around chaotically like this, I'd get motion sick and fall off into the water! XD
the cop guy: They Are Monsters! Can't stop'em!
the enemy: i'm not a monster! i'm a cyborg terrorist!
Oh my God... This is my favorite one.. Shame that I never played until the end and they were dicommision at my place 😔😔😔
the concept of this game is simple years ahead when it was released
I love 2 player co-op gameplays😁
This game was created 1999, which already had early concept of destructible environment graphics.
Wow the new operation wolf looks pretty sweet!
That reminds me, we're getting close to 2025.
I remember this game back when D&B was called Jillian’s.
20:29 The last stage's music is epic!

This games makes you feel like a superhero navy seal/coast guard
What happens if you run out of time in the final battle?
It's a good game...… but the use of a helicopter in Gunblade has an underdog charm over the jetbikes of LA Machineguns.
Pretty damn impressive graphics for 1999.
I turned off the BGM and play Guns n’ Roses’ Appetite for Destructions as the background music, the excitement got enhanced by 10 folds!
Virtual on comes to mind
Co-developed by the same team, same composer as well. That stage select menu looks straight out of Oratorio Tangram!
Stage 2 Boss looked like it came straight from Virtual On.
Is there any game after this like a sequel?
Definitely looks like a cool game
sega was way ahead of their time
i saw Sonic Adventure in Easter Egg

Do you have a Nintendo Wii? So you can play Gunblade NY and L.A. Machinguns with 2 players and using Wii Zapper.
I normally use a mouse for Wii games rather than a Wii remote, since I use an emulator. I did plan to play the Wii version eventually, but I'm in no hurry to do it, since I already did the arcade version of both games.
Wii was a downgraded version of both games and was censored.
i cant get the gun calibarted to save my life any tips when u get to the aim test screen in the service menu?
I can take a look at this tomorrow, but I don't remember running into any trouble on this game before. Are you using a regular lightgun? I have only played this game with a mouse.

OMG I REMEMBER THIS GAME!!!
Tori and Tora: yes 😉👍🏽
Played this at my family reunion lol
I hope there's concept art of this.
So the main villain/final boss is Masayoshi Shido from Persona 5.
Avoid shooting the innocents are so hard and challenging unlike Gunblade NY
I ended up shooting them all
Take a shot every time a ricochet sound happens.
Gunner 1: "Killing squads of bad guys, gratuitous amount of property damage, civilian casualties and billions of dollars in expended ammunition. That's how it's done!"
Gunner 2: "Damn right."
Gunner 1: "Now, let's go home and play some video games."
Gunner 2: "I'll get the nachos."
Gunner 1: "No can do. They're still rebuilding the store after our last visit."
Does this game serves a sequel to the gunblade?
Sort of, yeah.
epic last stage !
In the words of Earthworm Jim "Old Yeller and "Weee Doggie"😁🤣
Earthworm Jim never said anything about Old Yeller. You're probably thinking of "Whoa Nelly!"
