Story Breakdown: Laser Ghost (Arcade & Master System)

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.

Get ready to grab those light guns again, because Sega recently announced that the company behind the upcoming Panzer Dragoon remake will be bringing the first two House of the Dead games to modern consoles. That's cool and all, but I've always been partial to Laser Ghost. That was Sega's 1989 arcade hit where you shot at ghosts in order to save the girl. It's not the most original concept, but without it you probably wouldn't have had House of the Dead. So turn back now if you don't want to know what happens next, because today we're spoiling the story and ending for both the arcade and Master System versions of Laser Ghost. 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!

And while you're just clicking on stuff at random, I suggest you head over to the Defunct Games YouTube page and subscribe to the channel. We're posting new episodes of Game Over: The Early Years every Monday, along with brand new game reviews throughout the week.
