Last week Truxton was before me in a store. I heard the booming voice of Lord Karnage "Buy Truxton, Love Truxton" And I did. Part of the Truxton club now! WOOHOO!

Loved this series of games back in the day and easy to pickup cheaply these days.

Mohamed is back baby haha :)

Mohammad from Qatar, that's a name I haven't heard in a few years!

Such a great game, i played this so much as a kid even though i remember sucking at it.

completely forgot about this game until i saw this, thanks bud

Please review Soviet Strike and Nuclear Strike. :)

I remember playing desert strike when I was 4-5 years old and I recall thinking there was something special to the game since there was a yellow little square on the cartridge. Of course I had no idea what I was doing but I do remember using the hook to pick up boxes.

Easily one of my favorite series on the Sega Genesis

The first time i saw Desert Strike on tv back in the day, i instantly liked the look of it and knew i wanted to play the game and eventual series.I first got to play a Strike game when i played Jungle Strike on a cousin's Mega Drive in early 1996, though that was only for a few hours, like Mark said, i was quickly struck be how hard it was, though i never owned my own Mega Drive and i'd get to play the earliest two Strike games 'til years later, when i specifically bought the PSP's EA Replay to play them.(I got a Master System in summer 96, when it was on its' way out and its' games were hard to find, but i only just found out looking on Wikipedia that Desert Strike was released on the system, though Jungle Strike wasn't :_ .) I bought a PS1 in summer 98 and when i discovered Soviet Strike existed, i bought it on the spot (along with Gran Turismo :) ) and i bought Nuclear Strike shortly after - i promptly played both games to death :) .(Also, while they were hard games, they were thankfully considerable easier than the earlier Strike games :) .) As others have mentioned, i'd LOVE if a new Strike game were to be released :) .

I have all three games, Desert Strike, Jungle Strike, and Urban Strike. They are all rather good. Again mark, hold down the A button in order to strife. Also, you can pull back and then hard to left or right to do a special maneuver to avoid incoming missiles as well as swing around 180 degrees.

The hardest mission growing up was the one with the motorcycle but when I replay it now it's pretty simple clearly have played this to many times 😂

I love this game! One of the greatest on the Genesis in my opinion

1:27 DAAAAAMN DANIEL, Back at it again with the white Vans!

Love the Strike series.

I remember playing one of these strike games on the PC.

I remember the day I bought this after work and going to a mom and pop video game store (remember those?) and buying it immediately! Then getting on the R train and seeing another kid with the game!! And we geeked out over the game on the NYC subway to the dismay of other NYers who wanted up to shut up lol.Great game

At 1:07 Ron Jeremy as Ibn Kilbaba.

Strike games are awesome! I have been recently playing the Urban Strike the Sequel to Jungle Strike on Mega Drive!

Great game but Mark forgot about the funnest vehicle to use. Blowing shit up with the motorcycle on the Mexico level was awesome.

omg I loved that game, brother got it for me for Christmas one year

loved this game back in the day

This game does bring back memories, but not much as the first one. Thanks Mark.

Played and completed the entire Strike series back in the 1990s, they were tough games and pretty fun. They're not likely to return from the dead though since I guess EA doesn't see, multi player only, DLC and pay wall potential with the games.

Old school game ...incredible.

Jungle Strike is awesome! I played it a lot on Amiga 500. Tou forgot Urban Strike. And there was a planned game called Future Strike which later evolved into Future Cop: LAPD

I feel nostalgic. Nice channel !!!

Feels bad seeing the cartridge in that condition (and not the tall EA cartridge), but mannn does it feel good seeing this bad boy again.

Wish I still had Steel Harbinger for you to review.

5:13 Haha! Love it!

If you don't have a Genesis (and why NOT?) but do have a PSP, you can play these games courtesy of the EA Replay collection. This can be had very cheap nowadays and has not only both Desert Strike and Jungle Strike, but also a bunch of classic Genesis games like all three Road Rash games, Mutant League Football, Virtual Pinball, Syndicate and more. Found my copy a couple of years ago for $2.99 and love it.

Any chance you can review any Genesis games developed by Treasure like Gunstar Heroes, Dynamite Headdy or Alien Soldier?

Welcome to the Jungle, we have fun and games.

My cousin had desert strike and I had jungle strike... Good times

this game brings back memories :)

Ok, not trying to be that guy. You guys got a lot of emotion outta me when I watched all of the LAST videos of CGR. Like whats the deal? I dont think that you guys were trying to get views by "quitting", but what am I supposed to think? I love seeing new vids come out, I just feel kind of duped. Like what is the difference between uploading these on CGR channel and uploading it to this?

the cart looks different than the one i used to own. the one i had was one of those unique looking EA cartridges with the yellow tab on the side.

i love this game!

I actually own all 3 Strike games for the genesis, Desert, Jungle and Urban and I actually prefer Urban Strike. If CGR wants to borrow Urban strike for a review, Id be willing to loan it to the show.

lol I still have my copy from 93 one glorious Christmas. I'm on the last stage but it's been months since I have got back to it. BTW I did not see you strafe one time.

this was awesome i love playing it

Would absolutely love a new desert strike, a decent reboot, anything

Would be funny if ads for MOBILE STRIKE were with this video.

I remember this game , very fun also very hard. xD

I love the strike games

great nostalgia

Was there one of the strikes on the psx? I remember playing a chopper game back in the day that was similar.

Oh wow, I have a copy of Jungle Strike I got for my Mega Drive (here in europe) uses a different cartridge shape, one that is slimmer, but longer.

Awesome series!

These games were damn good. I played them a bit but not sure if I played them enough. So with that said will we ever see Sega revive the series and give us better graphics and presentation?

Okay what is the best 80s or 90s Helicopter from a movie/tv show? I am saying a dark horse candidate here and saying the helicopter from a short lived show called Riptide. It is a Sikorsy transport helicopter called the "Screaming Mimi". Any aircraft with a face painted on the front automatically puts it on top.

wow this is pretty sweet for the genesis

NICE

whats the song from during the shout outs

How does this compare to Raid on Bungeling Bay? I mean, besides the jump from 8 to 16-bit?

yes a sega genesis reveiw

You should put a link in the video to the other reviews you are recommending to watch

Mark, you NEED Urban Strike. Was on PSN last time I looked. You get to blow stuff up with a giant robot....

I have all three Strike games on genesis and have nuclear strike for PC!

Mark should add links to the reviews he mentions in the end. Anyone agree?

next urban strike, followed by Soviet, then nuclear.

You forgot Urban Strike!

did you find that in the jungle

Genesis DOES.

Good to know Mohammed's still alive. I thought he went missing or something.

Game looks awesome

EA carts were a different shape with a yellow bit like the dessert strike one at the end!

You forgot Urban Strike the sequel to Jungle Strike.

Finally it fits

Is this the one where you can blow up the White House?

It's hard as nails when you get to the snow level using no cheats, three lives and trying to take down the M1 Abrams tanks or opposing choppers is near impossible

This game looks reallly similar to Jurassic Park: Lost World for the genesis, even the interfaces

Yes, this was a lot easier when younger!!. .. or wait.. was it because i played it many many times.

that looks dope…..

They were making another sequel called "Future Strike", but EA lost faith in the brand. I guess the series didn't sell so well on the Playstation. They ended up releasing it as "Future Cop: LAPD", but it's the same basic sort of gameplay. The difference in that one is that you're in a mech for most of the game and you can get out of the mech and run around as a little dude and do stuff.

back again with the white vans

Damn Mark, you are turning 40 this year?

How does Soviet Strike compare?

I never made it passed the Snow Level

Thats an odd version, mine was one of those tall EA ones with the yellow handle.

When I was 10 I used to be able to finish the whole game in one sitting thanks to having nothing but time to memorize the entire game

The best was nuclear strike on ps 1

You forgot about _Urban Strike_

Nice siometric 3D perspective game, the only thing i hate about these type of games is the controls.

Awesome 😈

Own all of them 😊

Dude i did not know it came in a regular sized cartridge i thought it came in one of those EA big ass cartridges with the weird yellow thingie on the top....please tell me i'm not the only one who remembers those

Wasn't there an Urban Strike too?

Strafe is the answer.

What happened to you Electronic Arts? You used to be cool.

Mohammed is legend

It's interesting game...

Ron Jeremy :D

You get in trouble for blowing up government buildings but you blow up the IRS building and no one cares XD

Dang, Muhammad from Qatar must be your best friend with everything he's sent to the show.

ouya review please

Wasn't this a PS1 game also?

I remember it being a bit tough, but I don't remember it looking this crappy. It hasn't aged well, and I think Desert Strike actually looks better.

More Mega Drive!!!

Broken many controllers with these Strike games, just way too difficult.
