GB Metal Masters

Going from that amazing opening music, to the actual game play that's pure silence except for the robot's weak sfx was fuckin' hilarious.

I love the Dune terminology for the basic story plot.

[@ryzmaker11]

Haha, again my pleasure ;) A really unexpected Game Boy version of a somehow obscure yet awesome Amiga/ST game. Sure this Game Boy version took a hit in some ways, mainly the animation/sound FX which tends to really hurt the whole experience as this was some of the computer versions' strongest points (the feeling of controlling a heavy machine that uses all sort of awesome weaponry is almost completely lost), but the graphics are surprisingly faithful & the title screen music freaking amazing!

[@ShiryuGL]

I concur.

[@thevgmlover]

I feel like an entire new entry in this series could be made JUST by using the opening song as a reference. I'm imagining a remake of Metal Masters with character sprites that look and feel MASSIVE against the camera, and a title sequence that flashes the title right as the rhythm drops!

[@ShiryuGL]

Day 1 for me.

[@HeroYui84]

I heard that Title Screen music on an episode of Botchamania.

[@ShiryuGL]

You are correct!

[@newyorker122]

Always loved this game.

Not sure why the theme song is different between this version and the others but it is significantly more catchy on the Game Boy.

[@ShiryuGL]

It is an original track by Alberto J. González. If you check out his other works you will notice he has amazing tracker skills and every single game he made an OST for immensely gains from his work.

That's because if you lose the game: If you lose, all the data you've done being lost and return at the title menu!

I was that kid that would take out the arms then the legs and finally the head.

[@ShiryuGL]

Solid strategy, I did the same on the Amiga. Once you bust up their legs and manage to sneak behind them, its all over.

Limited Run is releasing a physical version!

[@jeanjean59ful]

Is there actually one NOT great track in Alberto Jose Gonzales's work ? I don't think so.

[@ShiryuGL]

I agree.

@@ShiryuGL Longestsoloever is releasing a cover of the Metal Masters theme this Sunday. Been looking forward to a proper cover of that for like 25 years.
