[@TinyPandimonium]

played the shit outta the first level on a demo disc lol

[@reeper2100]

Same i have been looking for this game for a while along with gekioh shooting king.

[@accel103]

73452q06302825u yea man the interactive cd. good times

[@eldritchsun40]

I had a vague memory of this game and typed in "ps1 german robot game" and found it xD

[@fonze916]

Me too! And it wasnt even my demo disc. But I always borrowed it from my cousin just for this game.

[@ocamponeis]

Me too man!!!! The boss song let me hallucinated everytime.

[@modelmode8]

Look! no loading screens. The developers hid it in the stats scenes.

[@Naitoraven951]

They use the interval communication to load all the graphics on VRAM. Very smart idea :-)!

[@xXEmpressPrimeXx]

The moment the music kicks in when the Train appears is freaking badass. I love that track, best one of the whole Soundtrack! So atmospheric!

[@bradrolim3731]

This game is a masterpieace

[@CrayZgunZ]

just bought this on ebay from japan. Its a game I had on the demo disc 7. always wanted it as a kid, always asked my dad for it but could neeeevvver find it. I made the kid in me happy again. I feel like I satisfied my young self.

[@DogofLilith]

Oh the irony when I could never find the GD game either only to find out my cousin's husband had it years after the PS2 came out

[@cjvaans4484]

Finally, someone who actually uses its weapons. The game is so nostalgic. I played this back in highschool and it was awesome. I love techno music and atmosphere. The need to make a sequel like this with the latest graphics for the Ps3 and ps4.

[@JonathanGorr]

Iv'e been looking for this game for 10+ years! Gotta play it for nostalgia sake.

[@nickk7769]

[@HeavyMetalConspiracy]

It'll cost you about $110

[@shmooglevitz7281]

HeavyMetalConspiracy emulators, my friend

[@chiunweiyee6516]

Expert mode

[@sebastianesquivelv]

that soundtrack though

[@SYKim_94]

I was looking for the title of this game. It's been ages since I played it but forgot the name. Thank you for uploading this. :)

[@aaronkeith4334]

This game is the shit. This game was definitely one of my favorite childhood memories. I got a demo disk that had this game on it back in the mid to late 90s and played the crap out of it. I ended up finding a used copy of the game in a pawn shop about a year later and bought it for like 12 bucks. Played the crap out of that too. Unfortunately the game stopped working within a year or so. I was so mad because I couldn't fix it or find another copy. Luckily I found an original PS1 copy on Amazon a few years back but I had to pay a premium for it (over 60 bucks, this was one of the cheapest ones i could find too) Gotta say I'm a happy fucking camper though! Worth every penny! I still have the old demo disk too. I would love to see this game remastered for the PS4. I'd buy a PS4 just for Einhander!

[@Rydajay]

I played this game a ton when I was a kid and it was one of my favorite PS games. I have to say you are so fucking amazing at it. Totally crushed the first level and very nice play with Riot.

[@alanmagdaleno]

Brings back good ol' 97 game era. Awesome gameplay amigo.

[@gertrudemcfuzz74]

I forgot how great this game was. They need to make a new one, but keep it on rails like this. Sick play through man, you must be amped up on Red Bull or something!

[@shawnhawkins3283]

God the demo looked so much better in my childhood

[@8BitPinkiePie]

what do you mean? game still looks amazing for its time, and it holds up pretty well today not graphically but mechanically it holds its own

[@shawnhawkins3283]

im just talking about how I remember all of these games in full 4K HD. then I get a culture shock of seeing PS1 graphics for the first time in many years.

[@ryancontant3394]

boss battles in this game were so awesome

[@Shirai_Ryu1989]

I remember playing this on demo disc vol 7 as a little kid back in 1998

[@CrayZgunZ]

you're a beast at this btw

[@DearlyBelovedCY]

GOOD LORD I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GAME FOR SO LONG NOW. Played it in 1999, but as soon as the PS2 came out, I regretfully abandoned my PS1 with this game intact T.T

[@OuterHeavenNET]

I have been searching for this game for over a decade!!!!

[@robertquaintance838]

Please bring this one on back. This had one of the best sound scoring and gameplay.

[@mattsandoval2899]

I wang to cry because of the memories this game brings me

[@AnarchyALive]

Yuup I need to get a PlayStation now. So many good memories with the old PS games. Damn good piloting as well.

[@SiNKarnage]

This game is pure fucking nostalgia, I've played this once at my friend's house when I was like 8, now I'm 20 and I've been having vague flashback's at the back of my mind of this, I couldn't remember the name of it but I always knew there was a boss that shooted a Beam out of its asshole and thats the last I ever knew of it but now I happened upon this in my Recommends and boy am I fucking glad I clicked this. I'm adding this video to my Nostalgia Playlist so I never forget it #NOSTALGIA

[@SiNKarnage]

I wonder if there are any Emulators of this so I can play it

[@nsgames24]

Actually, I have one right now for you. ePSXe (version 1.9.0) is what I use to play this masterpiece and surprisingly, it runs really well at least for me. This game is still a classic and its even crazy to think that the company who made this was the same company known for only making RPGs, at the time. Then out the blue, they come out with something like this.

Sony needs to remake this game!!!

[@CagedPhoenixThe1st]

[@sludgerat444]

That would be beyond amazing

[@darayferguson2464]

I've said this for years.

[@ThomasJeff1898]

I think you meant Square Enix. Sony only published it.

[@Setha107]

This game is so fuckin sick! I miss this shit

[@DarkMikaruX]

I still own it, I need to break that shit out again someday. Loved this game!!!

[@Naitoraven951]

This game stole my heart. Never boring

[@thecollectivegamer3600]

Definitely on my list to collect. Finding a working copy tho is a HUGE challenge

[@AtsuyaTakei]

Just a couple of minutes ago, on the Demo disc Vol 7, I got the Juno, riot, and grenade. :P Thank you for the longplay, it clarified how to get them! :D

[@ProfetaJoseSantiago]

maan i used to play the hell out of this game when i was little!!! i only had it for one of the demo discs but MAN! been looking for this for ages

[@releasedakracken5175]

I remember when I first passed it. Was so proud of myself, then my friend wanted to borrow it but I misplaced it. He ended up just buying it. I bought another copy as well. Then my family moved and I packed it away. It wasn't until a few years after moving that I found my original copy. But then couldn't find the one I bought. Finally I discovered it in my closet unopened and brand new about 5 months ago. I still have it unopened. That copy was purchased in late 1998

[@CharlesUrban]

That thing is probably worth a mint.

[@Reika-bun]

this game was absolutely amazing

[@marcusanderson9042]

Beating this on hard mode was the greatest achievement of my high school career.

[@CrimsonFury006]

The billboard at 1:44-1:51 always creeped me out. :/

[@Naitoraven951]

LEBEN - FALLEN ? VOLKS GASMASKE :-D! Some references about the nazi Germany, i think ^^!

[@orochirel]

@@Naitoraven951 so because it is in German is should be Nazi ?

[@Naitoraven951]

@@orochirel Obviously, I'm referring about the Nazi German of WW II. I didn't say: "GERMANY WAS ALWAYS NAZI".

[@orochirel]

@@Naitoraven951 I know, but what in that billboard implies nazism ?

[@Naitoraven951]

@@orochirel That billboard remember me about the "NS propaganda". I'm not referring about the message, but for the style used for that message.

[@joshuavideogames]

Graphics look pretty good for PS1

[@nickk7769]

[@poscualchaleksandrovich8119]

Recordando Mi infancia jaa jaaaa . Muy adelantado a su Tiempo :) .

[@victorhugovaldezsoto]

Impressive playing!

[@monsieursunflower123]

4:20: Wait, the fuck?! I never reached that part when I played it! Is it a secret area that you can reach under certain conditions or are my memories trolling me?

[@faizkroller1996]

+totofze47 you have to destroy the bottom part of the mini boss instead of shooting its head off

[@saitoXamaterasu]

+totofze47 another example for this , is in 4 stage (factory) when you go for bot of factory , you can destroy some panels , if you destroy them , the base began exploit . Sorry for my english

[@Cacowninja]

+totofze47 I did ONE FUCKING TIME.

[@sludgerat444]

I know right? My head got fucked

[@nsgames24]

Good God, that Lightning weapon is strong! Seriously, I didn't even know that weapon could be so useful if you know how to use it properly.

[@poscualchaleksandrovich8119]

Voll explosiv und sehr gut zu der Zeit, ehhhhh heeeeee heeeeeee :)

[@mfpv_detroit8182]

we need a remake hd remaster

[@ironkong26]

thank u or doing this..played this game ONETIME way back and never saw it again

[@Liquid9360]

That thruster after boss’s death sounds heavy asf👍🏾

[@JABS-wo3bd]

great game play..

[@commandoazbo5266]

Thanks for the upload. I wish they remastered this game for next generation console and made the graphics really clear. The only game to come close on PS4 to this is called resogun.

[@tylerd1085]

WOW. Even finishing this game on hard mode is quite a feet in itself. NOT AN EMPTY SEAT IN THE HOUSE.

[@adub4ever]

Pizza Hut needs to start selling demo discs with their pizzas again. Amazing memories!

[@rastaelrafael]

uno de mis juegos favoritos!

[@556deltawolf]

I would love to play this game. I remember playing the Demo all the time as a kid! Sadly the only way to get the game is from amazon and an "Acceptable" one costs around 50 bucks not counting the S&H.

[@sonicsony5419]

you can always emulate it for free 😁

[@Evandro1111111111111]

1:44 what a funcking scary laugh lol

[@marcosm3508]

I forgot which Demo disk this came in. I always wanted to play the full game and instead played the demo hundreds of times. The 90s were the best man.

[@HiMyNameIsJonathan]

Wow this game takes it back

[@CookieThug]

the part at 4:00 it wasnt in the Interactive 7 demo

[@blackknight50277621]

I remember this game being so fucking hard each boss became my nightmares

[@opatriota5595]

Okay artkidsun, it´s youis best player of Einhander

[@thettruest]

which is better the Astrea or the Mk II?

[@S0UlWaR]

CLASSIC ^^

[@rickylovesyou]

9:49 best part of the Soundtrack ever. Shame its so short a segment.

[@Spawnwick_Boseman82820]

1:44 I still remember this.

[@poscualchaleksandrovich8119]

Very good For its Time, Full explosive . :)

[@oliverkalamata2753]

That music at 5:58 though. I'm a teen again. 😄

[@robertordonez9242]

Fuck yes this soundtrack

[@sonuva2003]

The sound design sounds a lot like that in Zone of the Enders. Is it designed by the same people?

[@sonuva2003]

@Ignister aha

[@ricardoistudla8641]

Epic!

[@trevlantana4786]

i use 2 play this game All the time when i was a kid

[@StarrySkykes]

Well played :)

[@IvanPlayStation4LiFe]

the demo i play this so much

[@gengar5458]

4:00 wow , i hadn't seen this part of the stage , is that because you got 3 S.bonus?

[@CookieThug]

im wodering too

[@CharlesUrban]

I played the demo many, many years ago, and I can confirm that destroying the mid-boss in that way gets you that alternate route.

[@fujitafunk]

I like to imagine that this takes place in the Blade Runner universe.

[@ArmyGuyDan]

been playing this since I was 18

[@Setha107]

Is there any translation on what the bosses say? I can't find it anywhere. Please help!

[@Baka578]

Stage1: Mini-Boss 1 (Griffon): "Lower your weapons or I'll shoot you down!" Boss 1 (Dragon): "This is a warning. Unload all your weapons! Stage2: Mini-Boss 2 (Shrimp): "I'll send you to hell! (pause) Die, coward!" Boss 2 (Spider): "Battle formation D! Battle formation D! All battlestations, your target is clear." Stage3: Mini-Boss 3 (Gecko): "Intruder Alert! Intruder Alert! Commencing defense!" Boss 3 (Gustav): "Welcome! here you'll only find your grave." Stage 4: Mini-Boss 4 (Salamander): "Surface quickly! Surface, quickly! Prepare for air assault." Boss 4 (Storm Bird): "Team-B airdropping! Team-B has landed!" [pause] Here comes reinforcement!" Stage 5: Mini-Boss 5 (Gestell): "Einhänder! I have just found you! I will not die here!" - (This is the hardest to translate I'm not exactly sure if that's correct, but I can only hear some words) Boss 5 (Durer): "You will die!" source: yahoo answers.

[@Setha107]

Thank you so fucking much. These still aren't all of them though right? Either way, thanks brother.

[@releasedakracken5175]

Took me a friggin' week or so to pass this game. This was the shit.

[@Brandyzzle_]

Holy shit your so good at this game! I cannot beat stage 5 Jesus

[@yournamehere7329]

do you have a cheat enabled or something? at the very beginning you were running into enemies and they were dying. still did a great job though.

[@armandojimenez5128]

We're killing these ships in the abandoned city

[@KCScorpion34]

Holy shit was this guy on speed when he played this?

[@DeltaEagle7700]

3:43 Right on cue!

[@RACKEMDADDY]

dude you are too good.....

[@HeavyMetalConspiracy]

I miss this game I remember playing it with my dad and cousins when I was like 8 years old, now if I want it it's gonna cost like $150

[@daedalus-prime]

The digital version is like $5 on the Japan PSN store.

[@victorsamus5992]

Juegazo

[@andrewwilson803]

miss this game... prices online are weird from $50-250 guess I'll just appreciate it as being an oldschool gem... lol

[@8BitPinkiePie]

I found my copy of the game, it holds its own pretty well mechanically.

[@bs4830]

have you ever got the alternate path on Stage 1?

[@rickylovesyou]

Did u not see it?? 4:00

[@armandojimenez5128]

You killed the spinne yay

[@AneudiD78]

I still own the American version. What a classic shooter.

[@AneudiD78]

The only reason I still have some lingering around is that I forgot about them in a cabinet. I got rid of the ones that everybody had & kept the games that I loved. That's why we have eBay, lol, to buy back our memories.

[@JoseSanchez-bo7zb]

I wonder if this game is in the PlayStation store on his PS3. I used to love this game. But you sir, you weren't even shot, much less taken down. Must be playing this on rookie mode

[@daedalus-prime]

Its in the Japan Playstation store. Plays great on the PS3.

[@Steelwaterfall1]

I know this comment is old, but you reach that part of the stage when you destroy the bottom part of the miniboss

[@aldemirpinheiro8521]

mesmo com codigo e GameShark a conqista é intensa e frenetica

[@taedesign]

COOL !!!!!

[@glenfrog814]

I'm about to practice on medium level before I get to hard.

[@glenfrog814]

seeing thus video shows me that I don't know how to play this game even though I've playing it for the last 15 years lol

[@BringOutThePunx]

Alejandro De La Vega Dude. I feel you. I've got the game ported on my PSP, but I'm freaking stuck and can't quite beat it yet.

[@mfpv_detroit8182]

[@NatsukiNero]

A REMASTER or REMAKE please !!

[@ClaudiaShifferLA]

Best graphics PS1

[@VivinViswanathan]

I've new found respect for Riot. :o

[@kevinsorbi3661]

The fuck is that shit took me way longer with the bosses lol

[@striderhiryu973]

this game is sooooo powerfull , animation , music ,boss music so good , difficulty ,BOSS apparance so stylish ,limited weapon to take on enemi , bonus , stage design no way this game is perfect 20/20 , just make an remake to ps4 in hd

[@Jsushifish]

I still have US copy. Game really isn't that hard once you played and beat it, even on hardest setting. Just takes practice.

[@thettruest]

is that supposed to be underwater? never saw that before

[@30DiMH]

it takes place on a future Earth and in space during a war between humans on Earth and human colonists from the moon. great game.

[@lvl10cooking]

TurKlack Everyone is evil in this game.

[@TurKlack]

Huh? So you play a Terrrost or something? I found this game through a guy via Steam...I have no idea whats going there :)

[@lvl10cooking]

TurKlack TL:DR you come from the colonies on the moon, who go on about how they're oppressed by the terrans who are living large with no strife in a utopia, so they send you in a prototype combat vehicle to gather combat data for their un-manned army E.O.S. and screw up a lot of key defense points. Once there you find out that Earth is pretty much like the moon and that the moon and earth's gov'ts are pretty much the same and the only reason the moon declared war was just for shits and giggles. Then in a surprise twist your own gov't tries to kill you because you know too much, since you helped complete E.O.S. they no longer need you.

[@biglsworth567]

I get what you're saying. The part after the first boss on the first stage was definitely not a part of the American release of this game.
