You'd be amazed what people find on their Katana HDDs.....
You play as a Hell's Angel riding around Hell on your HellBike blasting Demons. Awesome. The game was developed by Horny Dog and was to be published by Jester Interactive, except it all went a bit wrong and got cancelled.
There's some images here (http://superiorversion.com/?p=253) and I'm sure there's some gameplay videos kicking around on YouTube.
Let the PMs commence.....

Has Horny Dog made anything else? I could swear that name sounds familiar but I'm terrified to try a google search of it.

Hmm, I have to guess there's no relation between this and the current games using the "Hellgate" title...
My guess on this one may be "too similar to Ghost Rider for Marvel's tastes", but it may just be another case of "the system wasn't doing so well so we scrapped it".

Jesus, has anyone that's uploaded a video of it to youtube done so with a capture card or is everything just shitty cell phone / camcorder videos? I'm half tempted to grab the disc image just to grab quality footage.

Is there a disc image available?

I second that. I guess this time, I'll be the guy who says "disk image or it didn't happen!" :D

I didn't want to be overly obvious.... But I'm seeding a copy now.

I'm invoking the "it's a canceled game for a platform that's been pretty much dead for 7 years" clause (you know, assuming there was one)

Yeah, you have to be quick on the draw around here!
I can't wait to check the game out later.

Depending on the size, I can create some videos and post 'em too.

Sounds like Naughty Dog Entertainment.
Onto the game - dang, that's ugly, and mostly in the bad way. Maybe you use the bike to speed away from the ugliness as SUPER SPEEDS. I'm confused by the layouts - this looks more like Shadowman Plus A Jetbike. Somewhat less imagination in the environments ripped straight out of Dante, though.

Guys, you know we don't allow the rom/torrent links here. Even with dead games on dead systems. If one has the means to search them out and get them on their own we can't stop you, but we do stop it from being linked on the site.

Is it only in PAL format? Can I use it on NTSC Dreamcast or convert it?

It should work, I've never had a problem playing Shenmue II or the handful of other PAL games I have on my US DC.

Yep, works fine, for better or worse LOL!
Well, it's pretty crap! I really gave it a chance but DAMN! Those who seek it out it is cool from a collectors standpoint but if your expecting anything fun/playable forget it! Unlike other unreleased games that "surfaced" like Half Life 2 and Propeller Arena this game is glitchy, not particularly good looking and just not fun DOH! Hey, beggars can't be choosers, I would like more history on this game, is it a beta or unfinished because if THIS is what may of been released well I think canceling it was the right idea!
