Yeah, it's one of my faves.
Amazing how few people know it was pitched as a sequel to Street Fighter.
Kudos Dr. A

Oh, another interesting thing that I discovered by accident (also talking to Dr. A) was the Amiga version is unbelievably easy to beat.
Seriously, the enemeies just give up half way through the fight, hide in a corner and let you kick the crap out of them.

Meh, what a disappointing game, I was hoping the last boss would be the tank.

I was hoping the last boss would be the programmer. Or at the very least the guy who composed the music.

That was a great review. I loved it. Not only was it funny, but we see some insight into the game as well. Nice touch.

That was great. Great work Ashens. No wonder I had never even heard about this game.

What...what th...wha.... WAIT WHAT????
WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT??? That was a horrid excuse for a fighting game, with such a horrible title and laughable picture in the title, and the fact that the company is still around making cellphone games "shuddering" I wouldn't want to see those.

Why Tiertex? Why did you have to subject people to this piece of crap? This terribly stereotypical jerky piece of crap? Thank god I was born in the 90's. At least I didn't have to put up with this.Great review Ashens. I hope to see more of your stuff in the future. Good morning, good bye and potato.

This is obviously not a game that can be called good, but did this guy REALLY expect Atari to have the same graphics and performance as an arcade machine ?

2:17 - That image gave me the worst idea for a video game: Play Sam Fisher and try to sneak up on Ryu, over and over and over and over and over again to see how many times you can do it within 1 hour. Looking at that image I can almost hear the two. Ryu: "Don't you sneak up on me no more!" Sam: "NEVER!"
See why so many bad games come out? Because it's so easy to come up with bad ideas. *sigh* I wish I was LJN. If I was I could actually turn all the little and big turds in my head into video games.

This entire video is made of WIN!
I particularly like the expression of the poor woman with the mobile phone...

The artwork vaguely reminds me of a Where's Waldo book...
Great review though!

If you look on the cover thing it says Human HKM which really says human human killing machine,....iv been watching this video occasionally for the past year and only JUST realized that

I love the Atari ST, was my first computer I used when I was about 5 in the mid nineties.
I know it's not a bad game, but you should so review the ST version of Onslaught. I'd do it myself but I would need to go find my old ST from the loft, then work out how I'd record it.

Wow that game sucked the fun out of fighting games. I hope Doc Ashens could do a review about that game from DATAEAST that blatently ripped off SFII

Oh I've seen this, my memory started working again it seems. Great vid. I guess I have seen Dr. Ashens in the past after all, I knew I heard that name before. Considering he apparently has been around for a while from the comments on his last video, I feel a little better for at least accidentally seeing some of his videos before.
Good stuff, hope to see more.

Ah, this is one of my favorite reviews. It's nice to see it again. Oi, is this game bad.

Another fun review, and a Game I managed again to avoid.
Although SFII on the Amiga wasn't very well converted. At least until the CD32 version of Super SFII Turbo.

I had to see what Ashens was all about. Not only do you have your own style and flair when it comes to a review, you've touched on new gaming systems that probably very few of us had let alone tried. I'm still chuckling after seeing your other reviews on current system knock offs.

I remember this review from a while back, and it's as hilarious now as it was then.
Wow, that game looks so...so...BAD, and not in a good way.
