Xeno Crisis for Mega Drive, Switch, PC

Bought the Mega Drive version (Rom download) yesterday. Outstanding graphics by Henk Nieborg and really cool music/sfx with speech. It's more or less a Smash T.V. Deluxe version in a "Aliens" setting. Gameplay is really good too.

Great game. I play on the Xbox pretty hard even in easy mode.

I've played this. is really good. When I first played I found the first boss a bit too hard compared to what I'd just played but you work it out after some practice. Wish they would make a CD32 version. We really miss out on a lot of new games

It's really strange they never show screenshots for Neo Geo version. They keep showing pcbs or boxes in the warehouse instead!

Game looks amazing and glad to see real retro games still being made like this. Really has that NeoGeo vibe to it...

Do I need 6 buttons joypad to play this? I use mega drive mini included 3 button pads and it seems I only can shoot to 2 directions.

Yes, already got it, thank you. Damn, as was previously said - the game is damn hard even on easy mode, I was very busy with first boss!

Seems like something an a500 could handle. I have it on my dreamcast. Good gameplay indeed.
