One of my favourite games on the Saturn and far better than the Dreamcast sequel I think. This game was released in the west under the name of Die Hard Arcade just in case you thought it looked familiar. Dynamite Deka hasn't got the most original story ever with it's save the president's daughter from Mr. Big scenario but it sure plays great which will have you forgetting the story in no time.

You take the roll of one of two undercover bad ass detectives. One of which looks uncannily like Bruce Willis from Die Hard from the cover illustration. Now if that wasn't bad enough, Mr. Big is holding the president's daughter at the top of a skyscraper that looks dangerously close to the Nakatomi Tower from Die Hard. I'm not sure if Sega had any type of license for this release but if they didn't they were sure treading on dangerous ground with the many likenesses (^o^;).

Everything about Dynamite Deka just shouts out quality. If you have never played this game then you're missing out on some top quality fighting action.  What more could you ask for?  Beating the crap out of bad guys with your fists, feet or basically anything you can see laying around.  You can even made a flame thrower out of an aerosol can and lighter !

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you about the mini bonus game.  The main guy behind Dynamite Dekka was also the guy behind Sega's very old Submarine game.  Back in the days when games were more than basic.  As a special bonus this game has been added in to Dynamite Deka.  Give it a blast to see how games were in the early 80's.
