Story Breakdown: Space Harrier vs. WorldRunner

One of the best parts of a video game is the ending, but who has the time to go back and play through every game? Let me introduce you to Game Over: The Early Years, the weekly show where we dive into classic games and spoil both their stories and endings. From the biggest hits to obscure classics, we're taking a look at some of the best and most memorable conclusions in video game history.

Long before Nintendo took flight with Star Fox, Sega revolutionized the 3D shoot 'em up genre with their seminal arcade hit Space Harrier. It was a fast-paced and often surreal action game that not only spawned a number of sequels, but also influenced Square Soft to create the WorldRunner franchise. So, with only one chance left to celebrate the Summer of Sega, it's time to breakdown the full timeline of one of the developer's earliest on-rails shooters. Turn back now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're going to be spoiling the stories and endings for the entire Space Harrier and 3-D WorldRunner franchises. This is Game Over: The Early Years!


Still want more endings? Then I recommend you discover 23 Endings: The Early Years, the holiday series that ran during the 2017 holiday season. We cover Ninja Gaiden, Street Fighter II, Super Mario Bros. 2, Ghostbusters, Golden Axe, Metroid, Double Dragon, Flashback, Final Fight and many more!
