Classic Game Room HD reviews LIFE FORCE for the Nintendo Entertainment System NES video game console! This Konami released SHMUP hit NES consoles in 1988. A revamped version of Salamander (as it was named in Japan), Life Force features exciting horizontal and vertical scrolling shoot em' up space ship madness. Similar to Gradius (very, very similar), Life Force has weapon upgrades, shields, lasers and missiles the glide along the ground and wipe out waves of alien, enemy invaders invading something... or are you invading their homeworld? Who cares. Things explode and you have fun. LIFEFORCE is a great example of an old school arcade style game that was awesome in 1988 and remains awesome in 2008. Cheap to buy, easy to find and loads of fun, Life Force is a must have for retro gamers today. If you like retro gaming, SHMUPS, space ships and Gradius style video games, LIFEFORCE is the NES classic for you! Another old school review show from Classic Game Room here on Nintendo Week! Will Life Force see a remake on the Wii, Xbox 360 XBLA or PS3 in the future?

I notice there's a bit of crackle going on with the music, are you using an emulator?

I owned Life Force and Gradius..I played both of them endlessly when I was a kid..Love the Old Skool NES..Need Konamai to make Gradius 6!!! in 2D sidescrolling with 3D background like Gradius 5..3D games suck nowadays..great reviews!! Brings back memories playing these games coming home from school :)

No, Gradius is Gradius there.Salamander was often the Japanese name of Life Force, although this wasn't a convention they adhered to for every version.

The Japan version had a series of "Samus-takes-her-helmet-off" style endings for better play. Not exactly original, but it added replay value.

although it looks quite impressive I can still see sprites disappearing on some scanlines and flickering as well (huge overflow at 0:50-0:55 for instance)... the solution would be to use SW sprites instead of limited HW sprites (8 per scanline only?) but I am not familiar with NES architecture so I cannot say if the obvious ZX Spectrum methods would work here (also taking into account the NES CPU is much slower than Z80A so it would probably have troubles displaying SW sprites that efficiently)

OMG I do remember this game from my youth. The gameplay is excellent, but the end was so-so; your reward was a mere advertisement of the Konami logo. The characters and levels were made from scratch, which made the game more enjoyable. Too bad the ending wasn't worth it. "Licensed by Nintend". LOL "All the first boss wants is a hug?" HUH???
