Here's a little side note about Albegas. It was also supposed to be part of the Voltron continuity. When Matchbox and World Events announced the toy line, they had three versions of Voltron based on the universes they were in. The most well known version (Lion Force) was Voltron III (of the far universe) while the lesser known Vehicle Voltron, based on Dairugger XV, was Voltron I (of the near Universe.) Albegas was to be known as Voltron II, or Gladiator Voltron, but due to the poor reaction of Vehicle Voltron compared to Lion Voltron, plans for Albegas were eventually scrapped, so it wasn't just the laser disc game where something Albegas related was scrapped.

Is it Albegas' destiny to be seriously thrown under the bus FOREVER?!

I had an opportunity to play one of the Dredd test cabinets in Chicago, at an arcade called Dennis' Place for Games (RIP Dennis). It wasn't all that bad, tbh. Hit detection was rough and it definitely needed better animation but with some fine-tuning, I think it would've been decently received. In some regards, it reminded me a lot of NARC. And as rough as the digitized graphics look, it's important to keep in mind that games like Pit Fighter were still in arcades back then, so that presentation wasn't bad for its time.

It's clear the creators must have thought it was going to blow the doors off the arcades since it offered secret codes for Asylum merchandise upon finishing it - it just didn't get released for whatever reason. Besides how weird and violent the game was I don't know why exactly, also it was to be released at a time when weird and violent games were prevalent. The unreleased game had some really obvious bugs, weird hit detection and was curiously short. It's a hell of a ride while it lasts.

There's also video footage of Sunsoft's Vs Lionex for Nintendo's Vs arcade machines, but no ROM has been preserved. There are bits of Flea Pit preserved on the Pickford Bros.' website, a project that eventually became Plok for the SNES. Then there's Universal's Mrs. Dynamite. Nothing known exist but an arcade flyer with screenshots on it. It looks similar to Namco's Warp-Warp or Hudson's Bomberman.

Gremlins I scrapped due to lack of decent footage. I cut out Primal Rage 2 because it's already been in another episode in the series, but it will be in part 2. So will Beavis & Butthead (Galloping Ghost have said I can use their footage).

to clarify: accessing the boss rush in judge dredd is impossible during normal play. the game's test menu has a starting wave option, and picking wave 27 starts you off in an unfinished boss rush that softlocks the game after you beat precious leglock most insight on the game out there is from our website where we interviewed two staff members who worked on the game, if you wish to see more gaminghell.co.uk/JudgeDreddInterview.html

Chimera Beast is the number one! One of those originally game development CP.BRAiN data programming that have alpha version was corrupted and faith with Chimera Beast.

It is been many years since where I was Creation of the franchise my Our Internet Wargame Universe takes place where Chimera Beast, Within The Beast, Internet Wargame And Our Internet Wargame. And I also thank you for your making video to doing with discussion Chimera Beast is the first game installment of Project: OIWG Perhaps is considered favorites unreleased original CP.BRAiN games. I’ll keep with Chimera Beast alive to Eaters as well as new generation games in the history. Look for the Within The Beast is currently works my social media topics upon are very soon.

Long time no see, Happy new year. The character roaster of Capcom Fighting All Stars is kinda lackluster, maybe that's why it wasn't released. i heard that some of the actors of Tatoo Assassins were also from the Mortal Kombat games.

Happy new year to you too! Yeah, I usually have twelve days off at Christmas so I just chill and don't do much video stuff. As much as I would have loved to play Capcom Fighting All-Stars, I have to agree that the roster isn't the greatest.

Another cracking video Pete! It's a shame about Spell Singer, it looks like it could've been something really great. I can sort of understand why it was canned though, I'm guessing by '95 everyone was looking for shiny 3D graphics with their arcade games (as they were with their home console titles?). Either way it's got a nice Guardian Heroes look about it. Hammer Away looks like it might've inspired Under Defeat, that adjustable angle of fire is very familiar, it's got a bit of Raiden about it as well. Judge Dredd looked nuts, I'd much rather have had that than the shitty Stallone vehicle that came along.

Thanks, Owen! Yeah, agreed, Spellsinger looks great. Yes, I'd imagine that its 2D style was one of the reason they thought they'd "missed their window" with it, as by then 3D fighters were starting to become hugely popular at the arcades. Hammer Away looks good, although there were a lot of Raiden-like vertical shooters at the time. Not so sure about Judge Dredd, but as I said I bet it would've been popular among many.

Thanks! I call them shooters too; "shmup" never sounded right to me.

Did anybody else _literally_ laugh out loud when they saw "Judge Dredd"? My God, that is the worst stand-in actor I've ever seen for a digitized sprite. It's like when "Spider-Man" shows up at kid's birthday parties, but he's all tubby and out-of-shape and can't do anything, haha. That really put a smile on my face :) Great list, man - tons of interesting stuff here. I'm especially into that "Chimera Beast" game at the end; that seemed to have a ton of cool ideas! For your follow-up, maybe you'd like to show off "Tenth Degree"? If you've not heard of it before, it was going to be Atari-Midway's fourth(?) VooDoo 3D Powered Arcade Fighter, after _War Gods, MACE,_ and _Bio Freaks_ (which had it's arcade release cancelled, but the home ports for N64/PSX released because they were too far in development already). Now it's been awhile since I looked into it, but iirc, it was complete enough for a location test and may have had a few units sent out. I also remember reading somewhere that the reason they cancelled it was because they went to E3 that year, saw _Tekken 3,_ and decided they couldn't compete with that so they just killed 'Tenth Degree' as well as any other fighting game that wasn't 'Mortal Kombat 4' in development (Primal Rage 2 might have been another casualty). I believe that's also why there was a bit of a lull in new fighting games from Midway post-MK4; they really had a bit of an identity crisis and had to rethink their fighting games to compete with Japanese-developed titles better. I think that's also why 'MK Deadly Alliance' was so crazy in terms of overhauling MK's gameplay, and bringing in various elements from Japanese fighting games - weapons like in Soul Calibur, fighting stances like in Virtua Fighter, etc. But that's just conjecture. What's neat about 'Tenth Degree', besides the fact that its technically a much more solid fighter than MACE or War Gods (sporting things like reversals and fall recovers), is that it's one of those western manga/anime-inspired titles from the time, like with Monolith's SHOGO, Bungie's Oni, Valkyrie Studios' Septerra Core, or (fellow cancelled title) Bits Studio's RiQA. I have no idea who the artist was that did the character portraits and whatnot, but it looks real good! Albeit, derivative _as hell_ - it's real easy for Fighting Game fans to look at 'Tenth Degree's' roster and see their Cammy, their Mai, their Sofia from Toshinden, their Terry Bogard/Cody, etc. While incomplete, it works fine enough in MAME, so you should be able to find lots of footage, but it sports texture/material glitches resulting in some bland backgrounds and things like wrists/ankles not displaying. It might also be running a little slow, I dunno for sure though. Screenshots exist for it in magazines like GamePro that show it off the way it was supposed to be. Another Atari-Midway cancelled Arcade game from the era that ran on their Voodoo FX board was "WAR: Final Assault" that looked a lot like a really colorful version of Quake 2, but sometimes it was in third person? Might wanna look into that one too. I remember digging up old GamePros a few months ago and seeing previews for a couple arcade games that ended up getting canned, but those are the only two that are jumping to my mind right now. I remember being bummed by both back in the day though, as I would love to have played the inevitable N64 ports - especially for 'Tenth Degree' as that console could use all the fighters it could get ;) Again, terrific video as always. Love discovering some neat-looking obscurities like these!
