Sega Game Gear Playthrough - X-Men

One of the few game gear games I owned and I loved it. Revisiting this is such a nostalgia trip, especially the music. I remember just sitting on the title screen and options menu and listening to the tracks over and over again until I needed new batteries.

I remember having this as a kid and using every character I had to try to hurt the muscle guy...slashes, lasers, punches and all he could do was laugh at me 😔

[@genblob]

It's such a dumb boss fight. Took me forever to figure it out back then

[@cosmokramer4703]

You burn his balls off

[@tylerlee7851]

Omg, I thought it was just me. This level pissed me off so much and I could never kill him I think I eventually gave up on the level.

[@thecurmudgeon7350]

Played the hell out of this game as a kid along with the Phantom game and Power Rangers. Good times.

[@frankystrings]

Same here

[@frankystrings]

3:40 makes me laugh. I imagine he said "wait til the platform comes. I'm gonna kick your ass"

[@samusvikerness661]

Had to watch this. haha I never would have figured out jumping up and down on that platform over and over.

[@vginsprdsobepr9698]

I remember having this game when I was young. There was little different between some of the characters powers but it was still entertaining. Storm was always my favorite character.

[@DemonMage]

How in the heck was I supposed to know to lead Shaw to a fire trap and nut punch him to infinity and beyond? There were literally zero clues given (that I can remember from far to long ago). Literally the only boss fight I couldn't win and continue the game. Thank you for doing what I couldn't...well there is always that thing Nintendont doesn't like, yeah, imma go do that and actually beat this thing.

[@jonb2756]

Even as a child I figured out that you just need to make him walk over the flames to hurt him. What kind of a scrub didn't eventually figure that out? I was 9-10 when this was purchased for me

[@jtrain9094]

The steam pipes will hurt him, too.

[@jamesmiller8289]

I always played as storm and just kept flight above him until he died.

[@KevinJDildonik]

"Eventually figure it out" yeah some of us liked playing outside and put down games when they were dumb. We didn't spend 100 hours a week hammering at games because our parents were screaming downstairs.

[@DJeimaXe]

Really sorry for this.. This is what we had when we were little kids...

[@genblob]

This game is great

[@supersaiyaman11589]

@@genblob you should be able to play it now it is abandon ware.you can play it on your pc if you want

[@supersaiyaman11589]

nastalgia is a powerfull thing so nothing to be sorry about even if some of the things we are nostalgic about are bad by today's standards. wene it becomes bad is wene companies remake games and people complain because it is not the exact same game. for example final fantasy 7 remake

[@williamsmith666]

We had the Genesis game before this. And Mutant Apocalypse a year later. What are you on about?

[@PopCultureCarnivore1]

Please, we had better childhoods than these kids now.

[@PopCultureCarnivore1]

With a flying character I hovered over him where the steam come down and it kills him way faster than the fire

[@danc3488]

I beat every boss in this game...EXCEPT SEBASTIAN FREAKIN' SHAW. I just couldn't figure him out no matter what hero I used or what tactic I tried to employ. Just kept absorbing my attacks (yes, I know that's his mutant power). I eventually gave up on this as a kid. Hey, I was only 11 lol. Well at least, after 30 years, I finally saw how to beat him. We didn't have the internet in the early 90's lol

[@williamsmith666]

Those freaking ELEVATORS...

[@trav8028]

I remember having this game back as a kid & being so frustrated with the Sebastian Shaw fight because I couldn’t figure out how to defeat him. & one day I randomly figure out that he needs to be damage from the torches

[@nightshadehelis9821]

This game was one of the most disappointing experiences of my life.

[@GregoriusAP]

They put X-Men arts from Marvel Masterpieces 1992 at the end of the game.

[@bacongrits4155]

I would unlock Storm first, then use her against Shaw

[@genblob]

Yeah. I never tried flying over him but that seems like it's the tech to use against him.

[@danc3488]

@@genblob I tried that back in the day. It didn't work, if I remember properly. Eventually your mutant power ran out because flying drained it. I probably was doing it wrong, I was just a kid haha

[@emilioa.2365]

The cruelty of middle aged men developing games in the 90's was being an X Men and just being able to nut punch dudes.

[@camschuster5947]

This game really hurt the AA Battery budget in my house growing up.

[@H0VA]

Was looking for this comment. Thanks

[@mikedski9698]

The Mutant Superheroes Are At It Again On Sega Game Gear! MARVEL COMICS' X-MEN!

[@ronlivingstone1634]

It’s weird how you can see wolverine in the morlock tunnels since you already start as him and cyclops

[@johnmerriam7844]

ok but how hard is this fuckin sound track though

[@RangoTheMercenary]

I see you love using Cyclops.

[@XXshadowman9000XX]

3:55 omg 😂 that must be very painful punches this guy in the nuts many times

[@jesseleesamples]

Do you have to beat the levels in a certain order to get all the characters/levels in the game? The Japanese temple lookin level and the one where you flew threw as Rogue didn’t show up for me?

[@odinnoah1340]

You have to play on the hardest dofficulty to try all the stages.

[@jesseleesamples]

@@odinnoah1340 Oh ok I never knew that. I used to play this game all the time as a kid and I couldn’t beat hardly any of it even on easy difficulty so I definitely never even tried it on hard so I never even knew there were other levels lol

[@KY-L_EB]

Shaw is easier beaten with a flight character. Just hover over him

[@genblob]

Wow I never even thought of that. Nice tip!

[@williamsmith666]

Very true.

[@充博阿部-m1w]

攻略できました^^

[@meangenew.jr.6564]

What a terribly boring playthrough. I guess you could just pick Rogue and FLY through the entire level... OR you could pick a different character every level and make your playthrough videos a little more entertaining.

[@genblob]

I'm sorry that you didn't like it but I was just playing though the game the same way I've done my entire life. Yeah, in hindsight maybe I shouldn't have flown though the jungle stage and actually played though it properly for the video but besides that, you only need a character that can double jump and shoot projectiles to beat this so that's what I always did.
