Turning the volume up.

Plot makes this one of the weirdest shmups EVER made.
The Ethnic Council raids the data library of the Ministry of International Trade and Industry and steals the digitised brain of Adolf Hitler.
When brain achieves sentience and causes a ruckus in cyberspace, leaving it up to Syd to stop him.
WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY SMOKING?
Before geezer enters spaceship, he's watching Clark Kent (Christopher Reeve) on the Hyper News Station.
After a bevvy of bosses, we reach the Emperor, who looks nothing like Adolf Hitler.
You can see why this was only released in Japan.
Final challenge is nightmare fuel.
D. D. Crew
Shut up, already!
Sega's obscure (and shitty) scrolling brawler would look out of place on a Mega Drive.
This is definitely no Streets of Rage.
Playable characters
King vs Arnold Schwarzenegger
Buster vs Arsenio Hall
Bosses
As a special bonus, I'm including hilarious pre-fight dialogue.
Horace vs Freddie Mercury
"You're in for some roughin' man!"
"You! Die!"

Mann vs Spike Lee
Mann vs Spike Lee
"Take a load of this wild thang!"
