| 1. Introduction |
-------------------
Either you're reading this just to see what's in this FAQ, or you actually do
need a pointer or two for this game. I'm glad to have your company regardless!
I have to say only a few days before starting to write this guide, I had never
even heard of this game. The only reason I had played this was because, as
some of you might know, I take screenshots for GameFAQs. I was taking pictures
for the completion project for some of the various systems, and I came across
two versions of Badlands for the arcade. Well, I was able to do one of the
versions just fine. The other version wasn't supported by the emulator I was
using. After doing some research, I was able to find an emulator that was
able to play it. The emulator came with a few games, one of them being Road
Blaster!
So lo and behold, I played the game, only intending to do pictures for it, but
there was something about it that just blew me away. After completing the
game, I decided that since there wasn't a FAQ for it, I would go and write one.
For those who want to see a slideshow I made using pictures I took from the
arcade and Sega CD version (And listen to music from both), just go here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3sjJ00gbgw
--------------
| 2. Updates |
--------------
1.00 - It's the first release of the FAQ! No updates yet!
1.01 - Fixed the completion date on top and the copyright on the bottom...Meh..
1.10 - Got an email from Mike Penance saying that the names he used in his
guide were taken out of the booklet for the Sega CD version. He
suggested I use those names as well. Thanks Mike!
-------------------------
| 3. About search codes |
-------------------------
I'm sure you people know how to use search codes, right? You press Ctrl + F
if you're using a PC, and I think Command + F if you're using a mac. You can
then type in one of those little codes up above to reach a certain area. So
for example, if you wanted to skip right to the fourth level of the quick
walkthrough section, you would type in 7.4 into the search box. How easy was
that!?
-----------------------------------
| 4. What is this game all about? |
-----------------------------------
Well, according to Wikipedia:
"Road Blaster is a 1985 interactive movie arcade game developed and published
by Data East, with the help from Toei Animation in illustrating the animation.
After Data East became defunct due to their bankruptcy back in 2003, G-Mode
bought the intellectual rights to the arcade game as well as most other Data
East games and licenses them globally.
The player assumes the role of a vigilante who drives a customized sports car
in order to bring the biker gang responsible for his wife's death to justice.
As with other laserdisc-based arcade games from the same time, the gameplay
consists of on-screen instructions overlaid over pre-recorded animated
footage. The player enters a series of high-speed chases in which they must
squeeze between trucks, fend off the gang members, perform dangerous stunts,
commit acts of vehicular homicide, and narrowly escapes death before facing
off against the gang's female leader. The player controls the cross-hair to
steer their car toward the correct directions according to the green arrows
flashing and beeping beside it, while controlling the gas pedal, brake and
booster whenever they light up."
I think that sums it up rather well.
********************************
* Arcade / Sega CD differences *
********************************
For all intents and purposes, there are a few big differences in the game. For
one, the graphics are slightly different. Both look good though, so no worries
there. The biggest differences has to be the fact that you have to aim when
using the turbo button and slamming into a car in the arcade version, while
you don't have to aim in the Sega CD version.
The car dashboards are different in the two versions as well:
Here you can see the arcade version:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=53
Here is the Sega CD version:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/segacd/image/587988.html?gf=47
I swear that there are a few less commands that need to be done in the Sega CD
version. At least I'm pretty sure there are less...
If you want to play the Sega CD version and need a guide to use, you might
consider using the guide by MikePenance:
http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/segacd/file/587988/56622
I would have modeled my guide after his, but due to certain things you have to
do in this game compared to the Sega CD one, I feel that the way I wrote it
makes more sense. (The short walkthrough at least)
As a final note: There seems to be two distinct versions of this game. One is
the arcade version with the crosshairs in it, and the others that don't seem to
have them in. I talk about the arcade and Sega CD versions of the game since
those two are the only ones I've played. Judging from videos I've seen showing
off the other versions, it's safe to say the rest are like the Sega CD version.
***********************************
* How this guide is going to work *
***********************************
Simple enough....
There are two versions of the walkthrough: One is detailed, the other is to
the point.
The detailed walkthrough will tell the story of the game as directions are
given to you. Think of this walkthrough as a story of sorts. As the scenes
play out (while I try horridly to describe them), I'll tell you when you need
to brake, step on the gas, turn, etc. I'll also be posting links to the
pictures I have taken for the game which you can find in the image section.
The other walkthrough, which I have dubbed "The short walkthrough" will just
be a list of movements and when to use the brake and turbo buttons. When
there's a point where you have to aim the crosshair at something, that'll be
listed as well.
One little point of interest I feel compelled to tell you is that there are
checkpoints in the game, so if you happen to lose a life, you won't start
right back of the beginning of the stage (Unless you didn't reach that first
checkpoint...) There are also some points where you start from a checkpoint
and the next action you would need to do is gone. A good example of this
is in the last stage. There's a bus that shows up soon after starting over
from a certain checkpoint, but if you start from there, you don't have to
input the command. So just watch out for those.
*****************
*****WARNING*****
*****************
Keep in mind for the short walkthrough that it's just the commands listed, and
not the timing for them. So beware, because sometimes when driving around you
may have to go left then right rather quickly without much time in-between
commands.
*****************
*****WARNING*****
*****************
---------------
| 5. Controls |
---------------
The controls for this game are really simple. Essentially there are 3 main
things you can do: Move, speed up, and slow down. Obviously you won't have
to worry about the 1P or 2P button, you know what those do...
Moving around in this game is real simple. You really don't have control of
the car. You'll be given queues when you need to go left or right. There is
no up or down in this game. (After all, this is a normal car, not one of those
flying ones from Back to the Future II.)
The turbo button is used to speed up. Just like going left or right, you'll
know when you'll have to hold down the turbo button. Another thing to go along
with the turbo button is the crosshair you see on the screen. It's only real
purpose is to aim at the bad guys when holding down turbo. It can only go
left or right.
The brake button is to slow down or come to a halt. Just like the other
commands, you'll be giving a queue when you need to slam on the brakes.
If you follow the commands on the screen, you'll do just fine!

* Level 1: Seaside Cruise 6.1 *
********************************************************************
Alright, turn the key and let's go for a drive! Try not to ruin the tires too
quickly. They aren't cheap. Anyways, on we go!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=22
Crazy drivers, someone should take away their license. That yellow car made a
sudden stop! Time to turn
-RIGHT-
Holy crap, rock!
-LEFT-
That was close...That red car is coming right for us!
-LEFT-
Well, I don't think you want to slam into the rail, so go
-RIGHT-
Oh look, some trucks....Time to slow down a bit
-BRAKE-
Went right in between them, but now there's that rail again
-RIGHT-
That blue car wants us to meet the rail again
-RIGHT-
Same with that white car
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=25
-RIGHT-
Alright, no more Mr. Nice Driver...Step on the Gas!
-TURBO (Aim a bit right from the center of the screen)-
Let's hit that car again!
-TURBO (Aim in the middle of the screen)-
Watch as a car goes boom! But enough about that, time to go
-RIGHT-
More rocks!
-LEFT-
The blue car! Let's hit it a few times!
-TURBO (Aim a bit right from the center of the screen)-
-TURBO (Aim a tiny bit right from the center of the screeN)-
-TURBO (Aim in the middle of the screen.)-
And so up ahead, the blue car decides to flip over...Time to swerve!
-RIGHT-
Guess the red car wasn't quick enough. Well, driving on the rocks isn't
helping much, and I think it's time to get back on the road.
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=28
-LEFT-
We don't want to drive off that cliff, do we?
-RIGHT *Will be holding it longer than normal*-
Well, that was another close call....But now that yellow car is going a bit
slow....Meh...
-RIGHT-
Time to dodge another car!
-RIGHT-
Hey ladies! How you 'doin? Just stand there, I'll swerve....Well, they're safe
at least, but now it's time to turn before we crash into that building...
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=28
-LEFT-
Here comes another building....
-LEFT-
Incoming truck pulling a boat!
-LEFT-
Let's go drive on the docks and follow that guy driving the motorbike!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=31
-RIGHT-
Try not to drive into the water though....
-LEFT-
That guy deserved what he had coming...Though do mind that rail...
-LEFT-
Mind that one too....
-RIGHT-
That's right buddy, you scream and point out where we need to go...Good job!
-RIGHT-
Another rail!
-LEFT-
Obviously you don't want to let the car go out for a swim...
-RIGHT-
Time to swerve away from that rail!
-LEFT-
Step on the gas and let's go check out the insides of that building!
-TURBO-
Crash! I'm sure the people here won't mind us...We're just passing by. We are
going a bit fast, aren't we? Let's not slam into the desk...
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=34
-LEFT + BRAKE-
Made it outside safely! Now watch out for those bushes!
-RIGHT-
Well, things seem to be back to normal for now. They were until that truck and
little kid decided to crash the party....Freaking kids...
-LEFT-
Going forwards a ways. Let's follow that car, and try not to slam into that
green truck that decided to block our way a bit.
-RIGHT-
Whee! A nice day to drive on the beach, isn't it? That's right, old dude, you
better run! Try not to get caught in that explosion.
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=38
-RIGHT-
Try not to get caught in that explosion either....
-LEFT-
Let's keep the car out of the ocean, shall we?
-RIGHT-
That dude has a rather large gun, let's speed up a bit and get the hell out of
his way!
-LEFT + TURBO-
More air time! Almost to the end of the level, and some van with a evil face
on the back shows up, along with another red car. Let's smash into the red
car!
-TURBO (Aim at the right side of the screen)-
And here comes a green car...Let's kill that too!
-TURBO (Aim about halfway to the left side from the middle of the screen)-
Not much time to dilly dally as the green car smashes into the van...Hurry up
and step on the brake!
-RIGHT + BRAKE-
Phew, that was close! Let's stop a bit and watch as those cars go up in smoke!
Alright, that was fun, onto the next stage!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=42
********************************************************************
* Level 2: A Long Way Down 6.2 *
********************************************************************
Alright, a nice drive through some mountains...A bit bumpy though...Oh hey,
look out for that rock on your right side...
-LEFT-
Well, you don't want to smash into the side of the mountain, do you?
-RIGHT-
Alright, back on track. Oh look, a bulldozer!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=45
-LEFT-
And once again, we don't want to smash into the side...
-RIGHT-
Another bulldozer! And it looks like he's about to drop some dirt on you.
-RIGHT + BRAKE-
Look! Another side of the mountain!
-LEFT-
It seems some friends want to play! That dark green car bumped into you!
You might want to swerve out of the way of the rocks there...
-LEFT-
So that's how he wants to play, eh? We can play that game too!
-TURBO (Aim in the middle of the screen)-
Again!
-TURBO (Aim a bit more to the right as compared to last time)-
Hmm...Incoming car!
-RIGHT-
Hope those guys have insurance...Alright, back on track now. Let's smash into
that gray car!
-TURBO (Aim in the middle of the screen)-
Truck!!!!!
-LEFT-
Well, looks like there's another wall o' rocks here...let's move out of the
way..
-RIGHT-
No time to relax...More rocks!
-LEFT-
Even more rocks!
-RIGHT-
That was close. But now that pink car wants to play! It seems to have bumped
you into you, and now your heading into yet another wall of rocks!
-RIGHT-
Time to bump into the pink car for a bit!
-TURBO (Aim more to the right side of the screen)-
Do it again!
-TURBO (Aim a bit more right as compared to last time)-
The pink car went boom! Let's not smash into wrecked car...
-LEFT-
This place sure has a lot of rock walls...Let's not scratch the paint...
-RIGHT-
Oh look, it's that rolling rock from Indiana Jones! It might be a good idea
to step on the brakes...
-BRAKE-
You almost got turned into a car pancake! Well, let's speed up a bit, shall
we?
-TURBO-
Wheee!!! Nice landing...There's two paths, and the right one has a car, so
let's take the left one!
-LEFT-
Another wall!
-RIGHT-
No wall here, just a rather steep decline...Let's stay on the road...
-LEFT-
Looks like a helicopter wants to play with us! We'll deal with that later
though. Try to avoid that wall...
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=50
-RIGHT-
Step on the gas!
-TURBO-
We're flying! Looks like the helicopter is in our way. Time to make it go
boom!
-TURBO (Aim a bit right of the middle of the screen)-
You stuck the landing! Two paths again, and once again the right path is
blocked off a bit, so take the left one!
-LEFT-
It's a rather small bridge and you aren't quite going straight on it. Let's
fix that!
-RIGHT-
The bridge is crumbling! Let's not be on it when it goes bye-bye...
-TURBO-
Hah! That yellow car didn't quite make it...Hehehehe....But it looks like
we're yet again about to smash into a wall!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=50
-LEFT-
Alright, let's hit the brakes and end the stage!
-BRAKE-
Ah, will you look at that? You can still see the smoke from the explosion
Life is good, isn't it? Alright, enough of that, let's go to the next level.
********************************************************************
* Level 3: Freeway Firefight 6.3 *
********************************************************************
The sky is orange, and we are on the highway! Nothing can go wrong here,
right? Well, perhaps, though I don't like the look of that blue car that's
heading right towards us!
-LEFT-
So now instead of rock walls, we get railings!
-RIGHT-
Hmm..A truck...I bet one of the doors open up! I was right! There's a dude
with a barrel! It seems he wants to play Donkey Kong with us!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=53
-RIGHT-
Dodge that barrel, but here comes another one!
-LEFT-
And here's a third barrel!
-RIGHT-
And a fourth!
-LEFT-
That freaking car bumped into us (People really need to learn how to drive in
this game...) Well, here's another railing...
-LEFT-
So bumping into the car didn't much besides you start heading towards the
railing again...
-LEFT-
The blue car seems to have decided to smash into the back of the truck. I
won't complain about that! Well, no real complains besides the fact we now
have to dodge the downed truck...
-RIGHT-
The railing wants to say hello!
-LEFT-
I don't think that incoming red car is going to move out of the way...
-LEFT-
Once again, the railing says hi!
-RIGHT-
That's a big truck we're heading towards..Let's slow down a bit..
-BRAKE-
(It might be best to hold right and brake for this and the next two actions)
But let's not stay behind the big guy for too long, let's quickly get out of
the way.
-RIGHT + BRAKE-
Well, it might be best to move out of the truck's way. Just keep going right..
-RIGHT-
Sure are a lot of rails on this highway...
-LEFT-
Either you're driving a really small car, or that truck is really big! Doesn't
look like the underside needs a wash...Go figure, the moment you get free of
the truck, a car hits you and you go steering towards the truck's tires!
-LEFT-
That freaking car did it again! Try to avoid those truck tires...
-LEFT-
Alright, let's kick that car's butt for trying to get us squished!
-TURBO (Aim a bit to the left of the middle of the screen)-
Well, that showed him! Might want to watch out now for that flying tire...
-RIGHT + TURBO-
Let's go and get away from that rail now...
-LEFT-
Hey, it's a giant truck that holds cars! And it looks like one of those cars
is coming right for us!
-RIGHT-
And another one!
-LEFT-
Yet another car is heading for us! That truck driver really should have locked
things up...
-LEFT-
Hmm...When I see the back of that truck, I see a ramp! Let's go for a jump!
-TURBO-
WHEEEE!!! Hey, is that gasoline I see on the road? A bit slippery...Try not
to slam into the railing...
-LEFT-
Same can be said for the railing on the other side....
-RIGHT-
Hey, that guy has a lighter! He's throwing it into the gasoline! That can't be
good. Let's not cook the car!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=58
-TURBO-
That dude is freaking crazy...I don't think your windshield wipers will work
on the guy. Let's try to get this guy off our car...
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=59
-LEFT-
If that guy wasn't bad enough, there's a car that wants to slam us into the
truck that has the gasoline...Oi..
-LEFT-
Well, at least that got the guy off the car. Now let's deal with that car
that slammed into us!
-TURBO (Aim in the middle of the screen)-
Well, I'm sure the green car there had an evil driver in it, so it's not so bad
that the other car smashed into it. However, let's not make this a three way
accident...
-LEFT-
The railing wants to meet you...
-RIGHT-
It would appear that gas leak has cought up to the gasoline truck. KABOOM!
-TURBO-
Let's shy out of the way of the exploding gasonline truck...
-RIGHT-
Ah, smooth sailling from here!
********************************************************************
* Level 4: Factory Tour 6.4 *
********************************************************************
So here we are, driving down some place. Exciting, isn't it?! And the fun
continues when that forklift shows up from the left!!!
-RIGHT-
I know art when I see it, and that skull and crossbones is some high class
stuff! But let's not admire it for too long, otherwise you'll crash into the
wall.
-LEFT-
I see some dudes loading boxes and a blonde chick with a gun! They're firing
at us!!! So let's smash through those boxes! But holy crap! There's a parked
truck in front of those boxes!
-RIGHT-
And another truck!
-LEFT + BRAKE-
Dang barrels...Thankfully this car is built of stronger stuff! Bwahaha! But
walls still suck, so....
-RIGHT-
Another forklift with boxes that say "DANGER" on them! The driver appears to
be some dude who thinks he's Vega from Street Fighter...
-LEFT-
And like before, let's not smash into that wall.
-RIGHT-
The same goes for this wall as well!
-LEFT-
And don't forget this wall!
-RIGHT-
A really large truck and some dudes on the sides...Hmm...I say we step on the
gas pass by them! Thankfully I think the car can fit under the truck...
-TURBO-
Well, we made it past the truck, but now someone in their car really wants us
to meet the wall!
-RIGHT-
And again! We don't want to be friends with the wall!
-RIGHT-
Alright, no more Mr. Nice Hero Man! Attack!
-TURBO (Aim in the middle of the screen)-
Again! Give no quarter!
-TURBO (Aim a bit to the left of the middle of the screen)-
Ha! Take that! Holy German cupcakes, Batman! That's a big truck! But I
don't think we'll fit under this one. Turn!!!
-RIGHt + BRAKE-
Hey, we're in a hallway! Sweet....Watch out for that evil chick behind the
boxes!
-LEFT-
Seems you can find walls not only outside, but inside as well!
-RIGHT-
I see a light! Let's head towards it! Chop chop!
-TURBO-
That's some bright light...Oh look, we've found ourselves in a scrapyard! And
look, someone wants to play a game of chicken!
-LEFT-
Well, it might not be a real wall, but I doubt you want to smash into the big
pile of cars there....
-RIGHT-
These evil drivers aren't nice....You just try to have a nice peacful drive,
and they bump into you! Well, try to avoid the wrecked cars there...
-LEFT-
And another car bumps into you....Geez....
-LEFT-
Well, that takes care of that car. But looks like we need to make a rather
sharp turn now...
-RIGHT-
Too sharp of a turn! Turn again!
-LEFT-
That green car thinks he can do some fancy driving moves...Pshaw...Let's bump
into that orange car!
-TURBO (Aim a little bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
Hoo-hah! That takes care of them! But once again, we need to turn!
-RIGHT-
Too sharp again! You should really work on that...
-LEFT-
I feel there's going to be a car falling down on us in the future at this
speed. It might be wise to speed up a bit now!
-TURBO-
More evil cars! And giant evil magnets too! It picked up that car like it
was nothing! And if we keep going at this speed, we'll smash into it! Slow
the hell down!!!
-BRAKE-
Time to make a left!
-LEFT-
Hey, I see a ramp! Let's edge the car a bit more to the left so we can use it!
-LEFT-
Oh great, now we're wedged inbetween two cars...Joy....I see another ramp
though! Full speed ahead, Mr. Sulu!
-TURBO-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-63
Wheeee!!!! More air time than your average overpaid NBA player! But it seems
we landed right next to an incoming wall...Slow down!
-BRAKE-
Now that we've slowed down, turn a bit!!!
-RIGHT-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-65
Dang boxes...Spin the car around and watch the explosions...Muhahahahahaha!!
Alright, enough of that, let's go somewhere else...
********************************************************************
* Level 5: Over the River... 6.5 *
********************************************************************
On a bridge! A big bridge too....And look, there's a green haired chick
waving at you! And it looks like her friends have joined in....Let's destroy
them!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-65
-TURBO (Aim at the right side of the screen)-
Took care of that guy, though he left his axe in the roof of the car...Tsk...
Let's take care fo the next guy...
-TURBO (Aim at the left side of the screen)-
Looks like the bridge is up...You know what that makes it...Ramp time!
-TURBO-
We made to the other side! Yay! Now let's take care of another one of those
motorcycle creeps!
-TURBO (Aim at the right of the screen)-
Take that! But now there's a yellow car coming in from the right!!
-LEFT-
Hey, a gas station! Thankfully the car was filled up a bit ago....A crash
would be really bad here...Oh hey, it's a lady...How you 'doin? Forget about
her and make some sharp turns!
-RIGHT-
-LEFT-
-RIGHT-
Holy crap, that was close! Looks like we ended up in a park. Try to run over
anyone, alright? Well, let's not worry about them for now, I think you should
worry about that motorcycle that's about to smash into your windshield!
-RIGHT-
That's right, you run for cover! Hey, it's one of those vans that's also a
kitchen on wheels sort of things...I could sure go for a hamburger...But we
don't have time for that now! Big turn!
-LEFT-
That one was hell of a turn...But now in our sights there seems to be two
little kids and a rock...I would say that you should squish them between the
car and the rock, but the car just had a wax job done on it yesterday, so let's
avoid the little spawns...
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-73
-LEFT-
I bet those kids were doing drugs...Would have served them right if they went
squish...Oh well....Let's forget about them and now worry about that
motorcycle with spikes on it!!!
-RIGHT-
And now quickly go left before you smash yourself into those bricks or the
helicopter!
-LEFT-
Explosion! Let's try not to get caught up in it...
-RIGHT-
Hey, is that the evil purple haired chick up ahead? Let's avoid her for now...
-RIGHT-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-75
Hey! Get the hell off the car! I wish there was a windshield wiper button...
Oh look..Stairs! Let's go up them and follow that person on the yellow
motorcycle!
-RIGHT + TURBO-
Smash through that glass door! That felt great! Bwahahaha! Oh look, a big
painting! I'd hate to ruin a nice piece of artwork...
-RIGHT-
Hmm..Looks like we'll need to turn here...
-LEFT-
Up those stairs! There's that chick again on the yellow motorcycle! After
her!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-76
-TURBO-
The people watch on as the motorcycles and cars run up the stairs! Hey, the
car in back of us is trying to butt in...We were here first! That motorcycle
chick decided to do a 360 and jump at us! Turn! Plus, you don't want to
smash into the door that leads to room 0912....
-RIGHT-
Purple doors! Let's smash through them! Hmm..Looks like they are setting up
for a party...Oh well, I'm sure they won't mind if we drive on through. Hehe..
While we're at it, let's speed up and smash into that helicopter!
-TURBO-
It went kaboom! Nice landing too, except for that truck that turned over.
Let's try to get out of it's way...
-RIGHT-
Let's give that bus some room as well.
-LEFT-
The revenge of the rails!
-RIGHT-
A truck full of oranges turned over and made a spiffy ramp for us to drive on!
Let's speed up and make some orange juice!
-TURBO-
Well, that was fun...But watch out for that incoming car!
-LEFT-
Wall and car!
-RIGHT-
Another wall!
-LEFT-
Just as we get centered, a freaking green car slams into us...How rude...Now
we have to turn to get out of the wall's way!
-RIGHT-
Bulldozers straight ahead! If you ever watched the movie twins, now is the
time to do that car stunt that Arnold did!
-RIGHT + TURBO-
Oh look, it's that green car that hit us a little bit ago....Let's give him a
slight bump, shall we?
-LEFT + BRAKE-
And down he goes! Serves him right! Another explosion, and we are off to
another stage!
********************************************************************
* Level 6: ...And Through the Woods 6.6 *
********************************************************************
Always nice to have a drive through the woods...Get back in touch with nature..
Makes you want to run over a deer, doesn't it?! I think that driver in the
yellow truck is a bit drunk. And hey! What gives dude? I swear the bad guys
are out to ruin the paint job on this car! But don't worry about that. Worry
about not slamming into the trees!
-LEFT-
Tree on the road...Swerve!
-LEFT-
Beware the wall of trees!
-RIGHT-
Time to ruin the blu car's paint job! Muhahahaha!
-TURBO (Aim at the middle of the screen)-
Take that! Oh crap..Time to dodge the wrecked car now!
-RIGHT-
This forest sure has a lot of trees...
-LEFT-
Even more bushes and trees!
-RIGHT-
And another car wants to play bumber cars with us..Gah....
-RIGHT-
Well, we'll just tail him for a bit...But holy crap! Incoming bulldozer and
falling tree! Speed up and turn!
-RIGHT + TURBO-
Ever notice all these walls of trees look the same?
-LEFT-
Alright, let's bump into that freaky looking tank of a car in front of us!
-TURBO (Aim at the middle of the screen)-
Aww....That didn't seem to do the trick...Oh well...But look! A truck in our
way...Time to turn!!
-RIGHT + TURBO-
Time to center ourselves a bit...Don't want to kill ourselves by smashing into
a tree, do you?
-LEFT-
And another tree!
-RIGHT-
More trees!
-LEFT-
I think I see a pile of dirt up ahead...I think if we speed up enough, we can
get some air!
-TURBO-
We landed in an open area! But it looks like to be populated by a bunch of
those evil dudes! Time to swerve!
-RIGHT-
Quickly turn and go onto two wheels! Do that Arnold thing again and pass
over the downed motorcycle!
-LEFT-
Ack! Incoming red car!
-RIGHT-
Seems like the two cars want to make a sandwich out of us...And look, a train
up ahead...Slap on those brakes!
-BRAKE-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-80
Hah! But my tree falling senses is telling me that we need to speed up some
or we get flattened by wood!
-TURBO-
Turn!
-LEFT-
Again! But the other way this time!
-RIGHT-
Left again!
-LEFT-
Sideways bulldozer!!
-LEFT-
Phew, that was close. Do I see something we could possibly jump off of!?
Speed her up!
-TURBO-
Spin! Spin! Spin! I think I need a vomit bag...Bleh....Stuck the landing at
least, but now we need to turn a bit!
-RIGHT-
Center yourself!
-LEFT-
Flying boat!!!!
-RIGHT-
Let's not fall into the water. The car wasn't built for underwater driving...
-LEFT-
Why won't these evil cars leave us alone?! Why do they feel the need to bump
into us time and time again!?
-RIGHT-
Swerve past that one car and try to center yourself again!
-LEFT-
Incoming pink truck!! I see a path to the left..Take it!!
-LEFT-
Center the car again as you start driving on the bridge!
-RIGHT-
I don't think we should play nice with that yellow car....Let's kill it!
-TURBO (Aim just slightly right from the middle of the screen)-
Do it again!
-TURBO (Aim a tiny bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
One more time!
-TURBO (Aim a little bit more right than last time)-
And the yellow car goes boom! Time to speed up for another jump!
-TURBO-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/arcade/568612-road-blaster/images/screen-81
Flipping time! And you stick the landing...Congrats! And once more, you leave
the area as stuff is exploding...Nice....
********************************************************************
* Level 7: A Turn for the Worst 6.7 *
********************************************************************
Screw the outside! Let's go for a drive in the sewers!! Make sure those
light are on...If you happen to see the inside of the car start to flood, you
better pray you got flood insurance on the car... ;)
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=83
Watch out for that pink car that's heading right for you!
-LEFT-
Thankfully, this sewer system is just full of twists and turns! You turned a
bit too much though, so you might want to watch out for that wall....
-RIGHT-
I see how it, you get out of the way of the wall, and a car comes and bumps
into you...Watch out for that wall again!
-RIGHT-
Well, at least that car ran into another car and went kaboom. Serves him
right....But now you gotta watch out for that explosion!
-RIGHT-
Another wall!
-LEFT-
I see a car's headlights...Get ready to turn!
-RIGHT-
Beware the evil wall o' doom!
-LEFT-
Those are some big pink trucks up ahead...Might want to look out for those...
-RIGHT-
The revenge of the pink truck!
-LEFT-
For the hell of it, why don't you smash into that yellow car?!
-TURBO (Aim a bit to the left of the middle of the screen)-
Well, that caused quite the ruckus...Might want to steer clear of the whole
mess....
-RIGHT-
This room is rather large, isn't it? I didn't realize sewers got that big....
Hey, those cars are trying to squish you in...Hit the gas!
-TURBO-
Whew...Made it past everyone....But of course there would be a wall to greet
you after the landing....
-RIGHT-
Ah yes, the every day sight of trucks driving around the sewers. It's quite
the space hog, isn't it? Slow down a bit and try to squeeze through.
-LEFT + BRAKE-
A bit too tight on the turn there. Do you really want to smash into the wall?
-RIGHT-
Hmm...The truck isn't budging and there's a car in front of us...Let's give the
car a nudge!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=86
-TURBO (Aim just a bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
Yay for explosions! Though, I do suggest not being part of it...
-RIGHT-
Wall!!!
-LEFT-
The other wall!
-RIGHT-
More cars have come to say hi to you! They aren't playing nice though. They
want you to play with the wall!
-LEFT-
You really should work on those turns. Do you really want to crash into the
wall?
-RIGHT-
Hey, that car is too far ahead of us...Speed up a bit and tell him how you
feel!
-TURBO (Aim at the middle of the screen)-
Kaboom! Well, that takes care of that. Well, takes care of everything besides
surviving that explosion. Best to get out of the way.
-RIGHT-
Why not try out that PIT maneuver you've seen on those cop shows on that car
there?
-LEFT-
How about that...It worked! A little pit of sorts! Wheee!!! Good job jumping
that! Now watch out for that incoming blue car!
-LEFT-
And as per usual, watch out for that wall!
-RIGHT-
Now watch out for that green car!
-RIGHT-
And as it usually goes, dodge that wall!
-LEFT-
Another blue car! Beware!!!!
-LEFT-
I might see a wall in your future! Hey, I was right!
-RIGHT-
Look at that. There's four people on motorcycles heading your way! Why not
slow down a bit and let them pass?
-BRAKE-
Watch out for that white car that pops out from the left side!
-RIGHT-
And now do the same for the green car coming from the left side!
-LEFT-
I see a light up ahead! Drive towards the light! Let there be light!
-TURBO-
Oh crap! The top of the car is ruined! Phew, at least you survived the evil
sewers of doom and gloom!
********************************************************************
* Level 8: Drive Through the Country 6.8 *
********************************************************************
Nothing says relaxation like driving down a dirt road....Ah.....A bit bumpy
though. And who is there to greet us? Some dude in his S&M outfit! Hey! Get
off the car!! My vacation is ruined, and so is the paint job! By the way,
watch out for that combine harvester. Those things are evil!!
-LEFT-
That guy is still there. Might want to turn out of the way of those rocks
there.
-RIGHT-
Oh great...Just what I wanted to see: That one dude's butt. And look, there's
another combine harvester!
-RIGHT-
He's still hanging on...Watch out for the rocks again.
-LEFT-
That did the trick! Peace at last...Or not... Great, now there's two evil
combine harvesters wanting us dead! Hit the gas!
-LEFT + TURBO-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=88
Well, I don't think anyone will find us here...Well, except for those people
on the motorcycles...And those freaking combine harvesters...Three of them
this time!! They're everywhere! Don't look now, but you got a dude coming
your way with a mace....
-RIGHT-
Don't crash into the grain, or grass, or whatever the heck that's supposed to
be!
-LEFT-
That combine harvester is still on your tail! And there's another dude with
a mace coming your way!
-LEFT-
And beware once again of the evil brown stuff I'm not quite sure if it's grass
or wheat or whatever!
-RIGHT-
Well, avoided that, but now here comes two dudes in purple with giant Q-tips!
-BRAKE-
Hey look up ahead, it's a dude on a motorcycle and a dude in the caboose seat!
Or whatever it's called...Let's smash into them!
-TURBO (Aim at the middle of the screen)-
Tsk...You smash into them, they go flying, and then land right back in their
seats! Boo!! Well, let's not collide into them...
-LEFT-
Watch out for the brown plant stuff!
-RIGHT-
It might be those two guys from before! Let's hit them again!
-TURBO (Aim at the middle of the screen)-
Well, those guys are gone, but out of nowhere pops out another combine
harvester!! Oh no!!
-RIGHT-
Phew, evaded all of them! But now watch out for the dude throwing that
pitchfork at you!
-LEFT-
And watch out for the other pitchfork wielding bad guy!
-RIGHT-
The two pitchforks don't really make for good car decorations....
-TURBO-
Freaking hell! Being chased once again by more combine harvesters!!! When
will the madness end?! Not only are they chasing you! They're blocking your
path!!!
-TURBO + RIGHT-
And another one!
-LEFT-
And yet another one! Gahhh!!!
-RIGHT-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=93
Mooo!!!!! Incoming jeeps!!
-RIGHT-
Tumble time!
-BRAKE-
Well, that was fun! Well, back to the vroom vroom! Don't let that combine
harvester harvest you!!
-TURBO + LEFT-
Holy cow cakes! They even come in smaller sizes!
-RIGHT-
Dodge the mini combine harvester of death!
-LEFT-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=94
Out of the way, you stupid chicken! Nice barn, by the way. But no time to
really take it all in...Beware the stationary car of non-movingness!
-RIGHT-
Bust right through the barn wall! Muhahahaha! Watch out for the helicopter!
At least it isn't another combine harvester!
-RIGHT-
Burst through that hay pile! Bwahahaha! I see a ramp...And when I see ramps,
I get the need for speed!
-TURBO-
Wheee!!!! Two helicopters this time!! Watch out for their evil bullets of
doom!
-BRAKE-
Oh lookey! Some cars want to play! But I'm not in the playing mood! Get
rid of 'em!
-TURBO (Aim at the far right side of the screen)-
Let's ditch those guys for now....
-TURBO-
More helicopters firing at us!
-RIGHT + TURBO-
The revenge of the bigger sized combine harverster!!
-LEFT-
They seem to be sending in everything at us! Let's get out of here!
-TURBO-
And once again, let's leave while everything goes boom!
********************************************************************
* Level 9: City Lights/The Final Showdown 6.9 *
********************************************************************
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=95
Ah, the city...Nighttime even! Explosions here and there, you know....The
usual happenings with city life...Gangs driving around like they own the place,
not a care in the world. Well, let's mess things up a bit, shall we? Adjust
that glove..Good job...put the foot down on the pedal and rev up that engine!
Let's kick butt!!!
Watch out right off the bat for that green car!
-RIGHT-
Try not to run that dude over either....
-LEFT-
Hmm, some cars are in the way. I think we should blast past them and the dude
inbetween them with the mace.
-TURBO-
Wheee!! Close call there. You almost squished that dog! But nevermind that.
Look out for that wall!
-BRAKE-
Slowing down is helping, but it's isn't going to be good enough. Quickly get
the hell out of the way of that wall!
-RIGHT + BRAKE-
Oh look! Another rail!
-LEFT-
Now look out for that bus!!!
-RIGHT-
Swerve! Swerve!!
-LEFT-
Holy crud cakes! Another bus!!!
-LEFT-
Another rail! And some dude selling oranges!! Swerve!!!
-LEFT-
And yet another bus impedes our way...
-RIGHT-
Well, I think we've had enough swerving for a few seconds...Let's smash up
the bad guys! Oh look, there's a blue car that wants to play!
-TURBO (Aim a bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
-TURBO (Aim a tiny bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
And now a pink car wants to play!
-TURBO (Aim a bit more to the right than last time)-
Alright, enough of that, swerve out of the way of that incoming car!
-LEFT-
Not exactly going straight on that street, are we? Let's fix that...
-RIGHT-
Incoming exploding car! Let's head towards the rails!
-LEFT-
I say we should smash into that dude standing in front of the wall...Well,
I suppose that would be evil of us, so let's not...
-RIGHT-
Incoming truck!
-LEFT-
Incoming bus! Those are some big windows....
-RIGHT-
And of course, there would be a car heading right towards us after moving out
of the way from that bus...
-LEFT-
Well, there really isn't anything in the way now, but I guess it would be best
to straighten yourself a bit.
-RIGHT-
Not sure if that's a van or a bus...Whatever it is, move out of the way of it!!
-RIGHT-
Another truck! Why does there have to be so many freaking drivers out
tonight?!
-LEFT-
A trash collecting truck! Well, enough admiring of that, let's not smash into
it...
-RIGHT-
A lot of trucks out tonight..
-LEFT-
Barrels!!
-RIGHT-
Swerve! Swerve! Swerve! Watch out for that kid!!!
-RIGHT-
Well, that car right there has an evil face on it! Kill it!!
-TURBO (Aim a tiny bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
Hoo hah! Umm...That incoming pillar doesn't look nice...
-BRAKE-
Now that you've decreased your speed, why not drive around the freaking thing?
-RIGHT-
Smash through that window and freak everyone out! Muhahaha...But let's not
smash the car...
-RIGHT-
Wall!!!
-LEFT-
Hey, a mirror...You know, unless the driver fixes the car up after each level,
I have to say the car is in quite a good shape despite bumping into all those
cars from before....Oh well, smash through the mirror and continue on!
A green car has smashed through the wall and wants to say hi!
-LEFT-
I think it's a good time as any to turn right a bit...I mean, that truck is
bigger than you...
-RIGHT-
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=97
Flying through the air! Whee! Umm, there's a flying truck behind you...But
first off, let's apply the brakes a bit..
-LEFT + BRAKE-
Let's not scratch the paint job, so turn right!
-RIGHT-
But watch out for that explosion!
-LEFT-
Hey, it's that purple haired chick from the intro! Umm, let's not smash into
her car at this time..
-RIGHT-
Watch out for that mace!
-LEFT-
Now watch out for that dark red car!
-RIGHT-
And now look out for that wall and that incoming yellow car!!
-LEFT- (Keep the left button held for the wall and till after the yellow car)
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=99
Ah crap!! That stupid yellow car flipped us over!!! This sucks...I think
I need an asprin. Hey! Watch where you put that foot, buddy!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=102
It's the return of the purple haired chick! She's given her baddies the
thumbs down (well, thumbs sideways...Whatever) Thankfully, the driver tackles
the big oaf and steals his van! The purple haired chick isn't happy!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=104
Now that guy you tackled is smashing up your van! Well, I guess his van....
Well, it's our van now!! Bwahahaha! I think it's time you turned the car
on and hit the turbo!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=105
-TURBO-
And the big oaf goes flying! Alright, time to finish this!! No more Mr. Nice
Driver Guy!
Umm, but before revenge can start, how about not hitting that wall?
-RIGHT-
Those evil dudes are throwing bombs at you!
-LEFT-
Oh my God, it's another wall!!!
-RIGHT-
It's the evil LX van!!!
-RIGHT-
Hey, did I just see Road Blaster spray painted on that wall? Anyways, looks
like they really want to blow you up with those bombs...Let's get out of the
way...
-RIGHT-
Quick, turn left or be squished by the wall!
-LEFT-
More bombs!
-LEFT-
And yet another wall! Sure are a lot of them in the city...
-RIGHT-
Alright, that orange car had enough fun...Let's hit it!
-TURBO (Aim a tiny bit to the right of the middle of the screen)-
No fair dropping that bomb right in front of us...Hit the gas!!
-TURBO-
Well, the orange car is a goner. But now they're firing their guns at us!!
-RIGHT-
Another truck!!!! Cripes!!!
-LEFT + BRAKE-
The wall says hi!
-RIGHT-
More gun fire! Parry!!
-LEFT-
More evil wall action!
-RIGHT-
Not much time to dodge the incoming gun fire...Be quick about it!
-LEFT-
Well, as nice as it would be to smash into the wall, how about we don't and
say we did?
-RIGHT-
I'm getting so sick and tired of that truck and the dude firing at us...Let's
take him out!
-TURBO (Aim at the far right side of the screen)-
That takes care of the truck...But here comes the van!! let's play chicken
with it!!!
-TURBO-
Well, no more truck and no more van...All that's left is the purple haired
chick! Don't think those guns are going to save you now! Muhahahaha!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=107
-TURBO (Aim at the middle of the screen)-
</pre><pre id="faqspan-2">
Smash! And the purple haired chick goes up in a blaze of glory! Hehehehe...
Your new van is a goner, but oh well, at least you survived the crash!
So take a second to look on the explosion and know that your wife is now
avenged. Take a gander at the ring now...Flashback time!
http://www.gamefaqs.com/coinop/arcade/image/568612.html?gf=110
Cue the ending music and the radio DJ from the intro! Cue the credits as well!
Now is a good as time as any for a stroll through the city streets at night...

| 8. The lyrics to the Sega CD opening |
----------------------------------------
While this guide is for the arcade version of Road Blaster, I just love the
opening song for the Sega CD version, Road Avenger. I figured since I did
post my picture slideshow showcasing both versions which includes the Sega CD
opening, I would include the lyrics here:
The music is by: J WALK
The lyrics are by: King Reguyth
I know I'm gonna revive
When I am...on the road.
I've got nowhere to hide
When I am...on the road.
And there's no use in wondering what
Made you feel like parting from me then, girl.
How many more tears must I shed
So as to melt the frigid wall of time?
So I'm gonna break it
Have no fear...on the road.
You know I'm sure to make it
No matter what's...on the road.
I know too well it's very hard
It's just barking for the silver moon.
But I don't care how long it takes,
As long as she lights up my way in the gloom
Until the very moment
When I see you again,
I'll keep speeding along the road to the sun,
The burning sun!
Hear the roars of my car,
I'm nearly round the bend,
Searching for the love that we did share.
There's no one who can stop me now.

(Watch it, sing along to it, whatever.....)
