Wow! This takes me back 29 years lol. Damn, freaks me out the amount of time gone by, but I remember this as if it was yesterday. Playing it with my old best friend and neighbour andrew. We completed it together for the first time on 2 player mode if memory serves me correctly. One of the best "shoot em ups" ever immho. Can't believe I just rediscovered this at the age of 40. 🤦♂️😂
I'm younger than you but I remember playing this game as a kid. I forgot about its existence completely until I saw on a super mario documentary this playing on a TV in the background. & I was like wait WTF was that just now?! I played that before! Then remembered it must've been a terminator game & now I'm here. I'm 29 now so I had to be pretty young when I played it but wow what a blast from the past
Wow good times ! I remember when I got this game and the old school genesis for Christmas from game exchange. I remember as a kid buying the T2 movie collectible cards from my neighbor and feeling bad ass but my mother or aunt wouldn't let me watch the movie.
@@SirQExcE242 Even nowadays the truck stage is hard to get by. Almost impossible without either an additional player or a cheat code to skip the stage altogether.
I never got passed the Truck either. What's funny I just got a Modded PSP with all the Sega Genesis, Super Nes and Nes games. And I still can't get passed that level.
I randomly remember that 35 years ago I could never beat the helicopter\truck section because we always thought you had to shoot at the helicopter! My brother and I could never do it. Then I remember the internet exists today. Thank you for this! You have corrected 35 years of "how do we beat this?!" :)
Блин ребята,столько прикольных игр было на сеге и суперниндендо.надо обязательно пройтись по этой классике,сыграть в терминатора и робокопа на старых добрых консолях!
Gawddam, the memories. My mom bought this game for me when on a trip in Seattle. There were two different Terminator games and I wanted the other one, but she got this one cause it was cheaper I think. Despite me whining about it, I actually played this a lot. It was pretty challenging.
The other Terminator 2 game on the Mega Drive/Genesis you were probably talking about was Judgment Day, an action-adventure game with driving sections. And I'm glad your mother did choose the Arcade one, because the T2 Judgment Day action-adventure game, as far as I know, was a *disaster* (according to AVGN, at least)!
I just got a menacer, and this game......got stuck at truck level.... now I see it's possible .....at 44 years old re discovering how cool these systems are to collect.
I remember playing this game as a kid. It seemed like it was longer than just 30 minutes to play it all the way through. I think it took me a couple of weeks to beat the game.
Had this as a kid. Only was able to beat it because I had an autofire turbo controller which hit the machine gun button so fast the meter never depleted. Also, the autofire pause for "slo-mo" made the truck level possible.
It was a hard game back then. But once it was completed I beat it just about every time. Which says a lot about me because my patience wasn't, and still isn't very good.
what a game i remember. actually does anyone thinks the opening song sounds like mortal kombat lol. still a cool game, i remember that big robot , never knew his name but he always looked so badass, was he in the movie.
Cyberdyne. That's the place where you have to destroy everything or you get the bad ending. Well, not so much as a "bad ending"; you just get a message that says that Cyberdyne will continue their research and that Judgment Day was still possible, just delayed.
This game was ported over by the same devs who would go on to Port MK1 MK2 for Genesis some of the music heard here was remixed and reused for MK on Genesis later on.
I also played this for hours on end and never got passed the toyota hilux part. Pretty cool to watch. Reading the comments interested in playing the arcade version though.
As much as I played this game through to completion as a kid, I don't recall the Silverfish (snake-looking) enemies, or the vial throwing scientists at Cyberdyne.
Dawg, I swear to God I thought I was supposed to be the REAL TERMINATOR in this game when I played it as a kid. So I ended up shooting all human and the goddamn truck to oblivion. No wonder I wasn't able to pass the truck mission! Seeing the truck intact in this video made me realized all the wrong things with me.
I wouldn't say that, this game lacks digitized sprites outside of the between level picture of Arnold. Some of the redrawn sprites look awful, such as the T-1000 at the end. The SNES is much more faithful in music, and use of digitized sprites to the arcade game.
I was able to eventually get past the truck though it was always a pain in the ass. One time and one time only I managed to pass it without the turret operator being killed, only to watch the game kill him anyway! Weird and hilarious glitch.
Never had the chance to play this, but it looks hard! Who did the soundtrack to this version of the game? It sounds like Matt Furniss did this version.
This is the better port of the game, for sure. Looks and sounds better, doesn't have any slowdown, and the colors stay the same when you use the Menacer, unlike the SNES version. Once again, Genesis does what Nintendon't 🤪🤙
this version has the best music Imo, better than the SNES and the Arcade. Visually not as good as the Snes or Arcade but in some ways I like it better I can't explain why. Maybe I just like the sprite work. The Schwarzenegger knockoffs that pop up in front of the screen shooting you have a more pronounced exoskeleton sprite than the arcade....
Loved this game when it first came out the sega genesis version is much better than snes and the soundtrack much.sounds much more cooler and different than snes
It also didn't use digitized sprites, everything was redrawn, some quite goofily (the T-1000 at the end for example). I'd rather play the SNES version as it was more faithful to the arcade game, and used digitized sprites.
The good thing about this old school games they might predict for judgement day like ww3 July 11 2029 with a different modification how a nuclear weapon will take place
From the year I was born 1991 my birth year they said the top selling movie of my birth year is Terminator 2 : Judgement Day classic came out in the movies and on Home Video that same year I was born back in 1991 after my mother was done with night school in Bladensburg High in 1991 when she had me that same year my father was age 29 and my mother age 19 we she finished up school.
To be honest at 33:36 i was questioning who the actual fuck quick switches and fires rocket launchers, guns and shotguns in such quick succession. Must be Doom Guy.
If you didnt have the sega mennacer the truck level os just impossible. Trying to aim woth a analog stick is hard enough but a d pad is just impossible.
This wasn't a game, this was suicide!!!!! Epic Suicide! Never got past the 3rd stage with that truck. Sega Genisis you take win! Not even an easy mode for 7year old children lol!!!!!!!!!
I'd say stage 3 is worse. Surprisingly, it's the one spot where the Genesis version is harder than the arcade. The SWAT van scene isn't quite that bad.
Looking at some of the comments, it’s nice to know I wasn’t the only one that got stuck at the damn truck 😂
Oh ik. I could never beat that damn level.
Jay Blade part the reason why is because I spent too much time on the air he’s, them being on fire wasn’t clue enough to me that they were dead
Same here!
Could never pass the truck also
So many frustrated hours
The Helicopter level was MUCH harder lol
The truck sequence was nearly impossible.
YES! I thought it was just me. I never beat that level!
I beat that level
Never beat it , used to be hell for my fingers on that level as a kid . Never got by it lol
I never got past that point no matter how many types I tried
Had this game as a kid. Never ever made it past the truck stage.
I feel better now that I wasn't the only one who couldn't beat the truck level as a kid...literally thought the game was broke lol
Wow! This takes me back 29 years lol. Damn, freaks me out the amount of time gone by, but I remember this as if it was yesterday. Playing it with my old best friend and neighbour andrew.

ONLY if it was n the arcade that it was tight cause this shyt HERE looks terrible!!!!
@@realsexyish snes came close
I'm younger than you but I remember playing this game as a kid.

Then remembered it must've been a terminator game & now I'm here. I'm 29 now so I had to be pretty young when I played it but wow what a blast from the past
When I was a kid this seemed like a such a long game... And of course, this truck stage...
One of my favorite games. Still play this from time to time. It is hard as shit.
I never got passed the truck except for the one time i tasted sweet victory
Same here. That damn truck level. Got past it once as a kid but died on the level after it.
@@CanadianDude lol same!! that was impossible.
I know that feel bro
The only time i passed was also the time were i almost won the game but thet damn stage took a toll on my credits
Lol you suck I kicked this games ASS
Wow good times ! I remember when I got this game and the old school genesis for Christmas from game exchange. I remember as a kid buying the T2 movie collectible cards from my neighbor and feeling bad ass but my mother or aunt wouldn't let me watch the movie.
A great game with the strong exception of that damn truck level. As a kid I'd do fine until I got to that stage, then I was fucked.
Yep, I'm not sure I ever made it past that level
@@d.e.m.p.s.e.y I recall I had to use a cheat code to skip the level when I found it in a magazine.
I never made it past the truck. That's why I'm watching now to see what happens lol
@@SirQExcE242 Even nowadays the truck stage is hard to get by. Almost impossible without either an additional player or a cheat code to skip the stage altogether.
@@SirQExcE242fucking same lmao
As a kid, I was NEVER able to get past the part with the pick up truck. I just couldn't figure out what to do at 7 yrs old.
This game used to piss me off something fierce
I managed to get to the helicopter stage ONCE. And it tasted like glory
The truck stage was my nightmare
I never got passed the Truck either. What's funny I just got a Modded PSP with all the Sega Genesis, Super Nes and Nes games. And I still can't get passed that level.

I used to play this with my Dad. :)
Me too i had the sega gun with it !
@@TheRealEMURSE wow
Brooo! Me too!😎
This takes place in Los Angela's in 2029...........
Did he have a mustache
Otro juego de la infancia que no pude terminar pero fue muy entretenido dispararle a los robots
I just order this for the sega can't wait to play this again one of my favorite old school games
I had this when i was a kid … dont ever remember gettin passed the first level lol

The T2 Judgment Day side scrolling game sucked anyway. This was the best choice.
The truck mission rune this game. never passed it had to give the game away.
I loved T2 the movie so when I got the game, I thought it was the coolest thing ever.
I just got a menacer, and this game......got stuck at truck level.... now I see it's possible .....at 44 years old re discovering how cool these systems are to collect.
I remember playing this game as a kid. It seemed like it was longer than just 30 minutes to play it all the way through. I think it took me a couple of weeks to beat the game.
I NEVER got past the truck stage as a kid. Always had to use the cheat code to get to the next level
The very first game my dad ever bought me close to 30 years ago from some drug store. How time has passed.
the truck part was too difficult for me too.
I don't remember it being this easy and so short! 🤣
It was
Good memories! In my time that game was awesome
Good job saving the truck on the first try. That part is really tough.
Never got passed the dam truck as a kid, I see you use rockets on the HK, if only I had of known!!!!
On the truck level just aim at the middle top of the screen and fire a rocket everytime you see an HK, don't worry about the running terminators.
I looks like he timing it and shooting before the he choper even appears
5:34 Its that fucking Wall-E?!
Kkkk no
What the fuck! Wow blast from the past.... Use to love this game.

That God dam truck scene. Even with 2 players couldn't get past it. Tried different tactics all time.
It's not the same without hearing Arnie's lines, and hearing the Skynet mainframe's speech getting garbled to hell as you blow it up.
2020, still can’t get passed the damn truck.
what a game i remember. actually does anyone thinks the opening song sounds like mortal kombat lol. still a cool game, i remember that big robot , never knew his name but he always looked so badass, was he in the movie.
The Tank can be seen in Kyles Nightmare sequence.
играл когда то. денег не хватило пройти. игра супер!
The Cyberdyne office is my favorite level
Cyberdyne. That's the place where you have to destroy everything or you get the bad ending. Well, not so much as a "bad ending"; you just get a message that says that Cyberdyne will continue their research and that Judgment Day was still possible, just delayed.
tip: use controlled bursts when you don't have the blue coolant powerup. Your gun overheats quickly.
This game was ported over by the same devs who would go on to Port MK1 MK2 for Genesis some of the music heard here was remixed and reused for MK on Genesis later on.
just got this game again and a megadrive just love retro gaming but I know I will have nightmares about that truck stage.
that sound at the end sounds like a Mortal Kombat
Geez, I remember playing this game so much that I wore out the cartridge and had to stop playing it for months.
I also played this for hours on end and never got passed the toyota hilux part. Pretty cool to watch. Reading the comments interested in playing the arcade version though.
As much as I played this game through to completion as a kid, I don't recall the Silverfish (snake-looking) enemies, or the vial throwing scientists at Cyberdyne.
Le meilleur jeu terminator à jamais
Fidèle au film super souvenir

Hey cool this one has different (and much better) music than the arcade version!
I had this game... it was so great
Never completed this game. Me and my mate would spend hours on it and only managed to pass the truck level a few times.
Me and my best mate played this all the time in the mid 90s the end was a slog to reach
I only got past the liquid nitrogen stage once lol
I never got past that fucking truck part
watching 2019
Oh....neat
This game was hard af
I was able to eventually get past the truck though it was always a pain in the ass. One time and one time only I managed to pass it without the turret operator being killed, only to watch the game kill him anyway! Weird and hilarious glitch.
The good old days

Matt Furniss of course.

Once again, Genesis does what Nintendon't 🤪🤙
Fuck that goddamned truck level! I spent soooooo many quarters at the arcade to not be able to get past that!
Lots of people are talking about the helicopter/truck stage.
i remember the arcade version
SKYNET

T-800s & Hunter Killers

Maybe I just like the sprite work. The Schwarzenegger knockoffs that pop up in front of the screen shooting you have a more pronounced exoskeleton sprite than the arcade....
I beat the truck level by mastering the direction the war ship emerged from each time it appeared. Of cause I only knew each time the game ended..
was this a game you could play with a light gun?
Yes. The Menacer
Could never get past the ISIS pickup truck level
Loved this game when it first came out the sega genesis version is much better than snes and the soundtrack much.sounds much more cooler and different than snes
It also didn't use digitized sprites, everything was redrawn, some quite goofily (the T-1000 at the end for example). I'd rather play the SNES version as it was more faithful to the arcade game, and used digitized sprites.
Does your own bullets cause damage to the truck?? I could never get past this part

5:32 Johnny 5 from short circuit after he got fed up with the human race
Just bought this at a gaming convention today, and while it looks good, I sadly don't expect to pass the goddamned truck.
At 17:39,
Is that Skynet, the computer responsible for the whole war? If it is, it's like you finally meet Skynet face to face.
Вспомнил детство
Тоже самое
completed whole game, but had to record certain things on paper. There is another similar game on SEGA with Aerosmith guys in it
Revolution x 👍👍
LETS GO
Гребанную миссию с пикапом пройти не мог в далеком прошлом )
Can this game be played with a gun controller?
...i'm baked right now watching this.......... #AlexisMason was here........
music is bangin at 7:40
.......ahhhhhhh it's the Governor of California........i bet he never knew he'd be Governor when he made the movie.....
Might shell out the money for a Menacer light gun just to play this
Sick game
Eu tinha esse jogo, nunca conseguia passar da fase da caminhonete
Game was the best on two player
Could never get past the parcel with the truck

That robot boss looks like rob the robot for the nes....didn't know sega thought it was this intimidating 😂
The Tank is from the Movie, though.
That fucking truck
Nostalgia!!!!!!!!!
To be honest at 33:36 i was questioning who the actual fuck quick switches and fires rocket launchers, guns and shotguns in such quick succession.
Must be Doom Guy.
Were on the game do you put the cheat codes in
Это было для нас Ностальгия.
Без интернета жили.
Мы его покупали дешево

Guys, I was able to beat this game too!!! :-)
Why were all the original reviews so bad?? I remember this being good. Still looks it!
I've beaten the game 10 times
