From DUSTINODELLOFFICIAL's channel. A user named spuytenduyvilmusic commented: "Hey folk. Mark Steven Miller here. Thanks for all of the kind words. To clarify a few things: These are my orchestrations. The Genesis sounds are all Neuromantic FM patches including most of the drums which we created from the FM synthesis side of the chip. Thanks to EEP386 for recognizing our FM cymbal sounds. The "Terminator" voice sample is a friend of ours who did voice over with my wife's 8 bit VO company 'Smartalk'. GEMS was a very solid sound driver with an advanced feature set for it's time. It runs entirely on the Z80 but can read and post to/from some shared registers with the main game engine to enhance the integration and interactivity of the music with the game. And yes, bad Genesis music comes from bad compositions and laziness. Again, thanks for enjoying this." So, no Tommy Talarico on this one.

Some of the games were great while others not so great...I'm looking at you LJN (Terminator). This game wasn't too bad but my favorite is The Terminator on the Sega CD! Coincidentally, these films got me into firearms as well. I love that Colt .45 Longslide that Arnold carries in the first Terminator film. I carry one just like it as my CCW although mine isn't a Longslide...way too big. The scene with Sarah Connor trying to kill Dyson still gives me chills to this day. That M16A2 is just so sweet. When she goes full auto on him and it's just pissing lead into his office was so damn cool. My very first rifle was an AR-15 A3 that's a lot like the one in the film (still have it).

This game was hard as hell, only completed it once, but the later stages are pure torture and will have you trying to dodge bullets (and failing) nearly all the time. It had great variety though and part of the difficulty came from the length of the game. So many stages! And that's not counting the secret levels. Really liked the laser rifle that vaporizes Terminators, and the rapid firing laser pistol (that is rather rare to come across). My go to weapon of choice for bosses however was the grenade launcher that fires controllable grenades. Every single one of these grenades does a ton of damage and it fires quickly, so you can really pile on damage to the bosses really quickly. It can be a bit difficult to control the grenades, but learning how to do so will really help with some of the bosses as you can hit them from locations where they can't easily hit you, or hit hard to hit bosses. No boss music though (except maybe for the final boss I think), and for some bosses, the soundtrack completely shuts off when they appear.

I loved this game as a kid. I thought this was the best looking game I'd ever seen.

Just tap the button before you respawn. Makes life a bit easier.

I like that Idea, though the Mega Drive version is much much better I like the comic strip stuff and adding a difficulty meter would definitely be a good thing as this game gets proper hard in the later levels, I'm sure there's a couple other things the SNES version could add to the MD version for the perfect edition of this game, Strange how different they made games that were simultaneously developed like this back in the day, you think it would be far cheaper and cost-effective to make them the same game or just port from one system to the other like devs do these days. There are quite a few examples of games like this on the 16bit consoles that were developed very differently, Aladdin, Toy Story, The Jungle Book all were best on MD in no small part thanks to the awesome Yamaha sound FM Synth chip, not that the SNES sounds bad just not up to MD standards at least for music etc.
