That Fire Fox clip looks good. Wonder why I never saw that in my local arcades.

Here is the second part to the Bega's Battle clip, and shows later gameplay.

The gameplay reminds me of a combination of Galaga and Gyruss. Great cut scenes!

Quote from: "Shadowrunner"That's really cool! Fire Fox was one of my favorite movies as a kid but I never knew about this game.

I played it a couple of times in the basement arcade of a local cinema back then, but I was never too impressed with it though.

That looks really cool.  Nice use of of animation in the game also. 

Going to the final frontier, gaming...

I'd say Road Avenger is pretty much THE best laserdisc game, if you happen to be playing the Sega CD version. The arcade version's prettier, sure, but it's missing the awesome soundtrack the Sega CD version will give you. Seriously, though, Road Avenger is great. It's easy to play, it tells you what to press, it's pretty forgiving, and it's a lot of fun to watch. Also, did I mention the soundtrack?

That game looks very cool too and it uses animation much like Cobra Command.
