Summary: A fun, but overly challenging action game
Comment: Back when I was only about 10, my best friend had Seicross, and I liked it A LOT. That was back in the glory days when the NES was the ruler over all the other systems on the market. I looked for Seicross for years, but I couldn't ever find it. A new store opened up a few years ago that sold used NES games, and after almost 10 years of searching, I finally found Seicross. Needless to say, I bought it right away.Seicross is a sort of racing/action game, but really, there's not any racing involved. You have to control a guy who is on a spacebike and use him to destroy other cyclists, rescue hostages, and more. But that's easier said than done. Not only are there a bunch of other cyclists who aren't that fond of you, but there are alien-like enemies and several towers that shoot fireballs at you. Not to mention that if you run into a wall or other border, that you will lose a life. It only takes one hit to destroy you, with the exception of the cyclists, who just bump into you as if you're a bumper cart.
While playing Seicross, you are always equipped with a basic shooting weapon on your bike. If you shoot certain aliens or collect a certain item, you can get an upgraded and better weapon. Since you are riding a bike that isn't exactly a bicycle, you will also have to collect enough fuel to keep the spacebike from running out of gas.
Seicross is a 2D side scroller. It has a mixture of bland and well done, colorful graphics. The sound effects aren't anything special, but they get the job done well enough. The music tracks can be catchy, and the control is just right. As for replay value and fun factor, it's sort of a mixed bag.
Seicross is always fun to play, but unfortunately, it's a little too hard. The levels are all long and full of enemies all over the place. Once you get to the end of a level, it shows you how many hostages you rescued, and then you go to the next and even more challenging level.
Even though Seicross is too hard, for some reason, it's fun to play over and over. In other words, it can get real addictive. If you're looking for a fun game for your Nintendo, I recommend getting Seicross. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Seicross is a 1-2 player game. If you play a 2 player game, you and the other person will take turns playing.
