Look at this blocky giant spider mech.

Don't you just want to blow it up?

Oh, and the second boss is a train that you chase behind with a motorcycle, and you blow up its cars one by one while it launches rockets and lasers and stuff at you.

I am also looking for just a little bit of information on this game. The (excellent) hardcore gaming 101 article on it here
http://www.hardcoregaming101.net/gunbike/gunbike.htm

mentions that beating the game will unlock a secret character, but I cannot seem to make this happen no matter what I do. I've beaten the game with every character, and finally accomplished doing so without using any continues today, but couldn't get a new character to appear. Anyone know anything about this?

need to complete it on hard I think

>>3598985

fuck

What I did was drive around and use the invulnerability from switching from full bike mode to full mech mode to crash into it. Unwieldly and time consuming but couldn't find another way to do damage without getting hit by those cyclones.

This is probably the most basic form of attack. It's not supposed to be time-consuming though, since you can switch back without losing speed. If you increase the difficulty to at least Normal mode (don't do this if you can't beat it on easy), you'll realize the time limits are so strict that the game never wants you to stop even once.

I don't think I actually liked the controls until after I beat the game for the first time.

One important thing to note is that while you're doing the dash (switching from bike to robot at high speed), if you keep holding down square and do a half-circle counterclockwise starting from up, you'll do a special extra dash which is great for hurting enemies, moving further, and avoiding damage.

anybody got scans of the manual?

>>3602372
I could get screencaps from the digitized manual from my vita, if that works for you.

>>3603971
please, if that's not too much of a bother.

Does this help at all?

>>3605684
it is great, thank you

This doesn't look like it has the special attacks.

Super attack: With 1 level of G-gauge: Press and hold up + triangle. Then do a half circle counter-clockwise down while still holding triangle.

Dash: With 2+ levels of g-gauge, rapidly tap up + triangle together to do a high-speed dash and destroy everything in your way. Continues till gauge is drained. Speed up with x, sharp turns with circle.

And for an extra attack during dash, while still holding square do counterclockwise half-circle down.
