We. Saw. Nothing.

Ugh I remember NP did Guerrilla War dirty, especially shitty cuz of all the times they gave multi page features to big-name licenced kusoge. At least Crystalis got the coverage it deserved

Random fact I recently learned: in the NES/Famicom port Batista dies after you defeat him at the end, but in the arcade game he escapes, fleeing Cuba just like in real life

I sooo wish this dev team had done the Ikari series ports. We could have gotten something great

The Famicom/NES port devs expanded on the arcade game brilliantly

NO KINGS includes the corporate money flowing into the Minneapolis municipal election. The wealthy want to buy seats at city hall while expanding their kingdom and wealth.
