Humming Bird (two words) had two versions of the song. The game version had a verse in English. The other version, without the English lyrics, is on their "Happy Birthday" album (vicl-60571~2). peace
The games Macross VF-X, and VF-X2 were scheduled to be released by Bandai a few years back, as well as a collection of transformable Macross Plus figures. They had ads out for both games, and demos, but they ended up cancelling them when Harmony Gold tried exercising their contract with Tatsunoko on anything that had the Macross label on it. Lead to a huge lawsuit too.
I swear, every time I try to remember this video game I have to dig to the deepest parts of google search to find out about Macross again and find this game mostly because I remember the theme song.
Always love this game. With 2 different routes. Always chose kill Gilliam due to the lack of Japanese and fought the hardest human pilot in VFX2. And love how this game was mimicking Macross Plus in the last mission (true end route). Fought numerous of Ghost and missile warning always beeping.
I had this game but couldn't remember its game....what I remember from this video is the "Get Free" on this song XD. Now Im like crazy, searching it for my PSP.
dude the game wasnt that fun, but intro sounded so powerful I wish they released an anime of this. I even searched and found there was a cancelled movie about the game.
hahaha I'm sremember this game as good as what i used to play it few years ago I still remember characters there... the boy with black hair is named Syun Tohma.. girls with red hair is Suzie Newtlet ... our hero is named Aegis focker and the main villain in this game is Mr Gilliam Angreat... pilot of the VF-19's...
this game kicks so much ass. not only does the music kick ass, but the story is accepted as official macross cannon. plus you have access to almost every valkyrie in the macross universe with the exception of very few. its not without its flaws though, but i easily looked past those because i had a blast playing it.
i also rembered that my favorite plane/robot was the one who is in the water in the video. although it wasn't the coolest looking, it definitely was efficient! its two guns makes it very reliable. i also remebered that the title on each stage are english movies or novels or something like that like "sing-ging in the rain (it sounded that way in the game!)" & "moby dick".
@takumivideos No, el mismo kawamory dijo que estos personajes no tienen ninguna relacion familiar, Aegis solo es un personaje creado por kawamory como homenaje a Roy Focker. Si mas adelante deciden cambiar la cronologia y hechos, lo haran oficial en alguna publicacion o proyecto macross posterior, pero hasta el momento eso es lo oficial.
hey i remember this game! this game is really cool because there are space & underwater fights + a land battle which lets your battroid fight like while walking or hovering! well, it's kinda hard 2 explain not unless you have played the game already.. the point is, this game is really cool & it could've been COOLER if it also has an ENGLISH VERSION FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT JAPANESE & FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T READ/UNDERSTAND JAPANESE LANGUAGE!!! ;p
man i have been looking for this song/vid for a long time, always been a fan of macross/robotech. sure the game play was subpar in this, but the opening was great, and the story looked amazing (if only i could understand it) the transforming monster set was awesome -----SPOILER ALERT------- like, i want to know why you start off friends with that one chick and guy, then last fight your killing them, what the frak happend. too bad couldnt read it.
honestly the music is why robotech has been cursed with never being able to finish anything. they match probably the best mecha fighting with freakin minmei singing. i dont know why its so difficult to separate awesome giant robot fighting from supreme gayness (evangelion, im talking to you)
Yeah, that was a letdown, and I was hopeful when EGM announced it was coming. Graphics in the opening are cool. Poor thing, that tank that got squished by the VB-6.
No, no es el hijo, ya lo dijo Kawamori: " ¿Acaso soy el unico Kawamori en el mundo? ¿Que acaso no puede haber otro Fokker tambien en el universo?" El personaje lo invento como un homenaje para demostrar como hubiera sido en la juventud de Roy Fokker
Point of logic:WHY would you update an outdated plane, even for testing? It would be like putting an advanced stealth system on a F-4 instead of a F/A 22, which could benefit MUCH more than the F-4 could. I'm not comparing VFs to today's aircraft, but using them as a paradigm of old and new. Besides, Miria STILL got her VF-1 trashed, but then when she and Max got VF-22s, & they OWNED everyone else through superior fighters and skills, like Dyson did in the VF-11b, then even more in the YF-19!!
i liked the armored VF-11 and excalibur. you always play the game as aegis focker, however out of the wingmen you get i prefer suzie. tohma was a bit too weird for me.
lol, if there was a squadron like this, I would hate to be the guy piloting the outdated Valkyries like the VF-1 and 11B. That's like flying a F-4 Phantom in a squadron that has planes like the F-35 and F/A 22s. Seriously, there's no logic (other than fan-appeal) as to why they would fly a VF-1 along with a AVF-19/22. The AVF jets alone could take out capital ships, let alone all the rest of their squadron in the blink of an eye with the right pilots.
yo lo tengo en cd para psx deja lo busko y segun su stado hacemos bisne o igual te lo regalo soy del df tambien ya lo akabe y tengo los daton en un memory card saludos si lo enkuentro te aviso
Macross, One of the leaders for great Mobile Suits and Animation. But also the leader of the GAYEST music known to the limp wrists.. (do you remember gayness?)
I don’t think I played the game for long but all these years later the into and the music still rocks.
2022 still remembering this piece of art!
Un juegazo de mi infancia.
I love how the Konig Monster does exactly the same thing in Frontier when it first transforms
This game is used mainly as reference to macross frontier storyline
I wish they made a remake of VFX-2 in UE5 commemorating the return of Macross to the West with the OG intro OST. I would have a heart attack.
I have this game and one of the best part is when you piloting the MKII moster.
shoting the 4 cannons of 400 mm are the best.
Humming Bird (two words) had two versions of the song. The game version had a verse in English. The other version, without the English lyrics, is on their "Happy Birthday" album (vicl-60571~2).
peace
man this game brings back memories, i remember beating it for the first time, i've gotta dig it out of the closet and play it again.
The games Macross VF-X, and VF-X2 were scheduled to be released by Bandai a few years back, as well as a collection of transformable Macross Plus figures.

Amazing intro, amazing game!

El mejor juego del universo Macross a la fecha, jugabilidad, escenarios, mechas y el soundtrack perfecto para sumergirse en la historia.
Esos años donde compensaban las limitaciones graficas con jugabilidad, contenido, historia, uff
did you see in macross frontier a woman from the sms skull squadron pilots a koing monster, awesome !!!!
Kanaria Berstein.
I had this game but couldn't remember its game....what I remember from this video is the "Get Free" on this song XD. Now Im like crazy, searching it for my PSP.
dude the game wasnt that fun, but intro sounded so powerful I wish they released an anime of this. I even searched and found there was a cancelled movie about the game.
yeah the soundtrack is out there, the song in the opening is called
get free"
@michiko2 I agree, I love it when In Macross F, the Pilot says"Get out of my way if you want to live" Dosent get much clearer then that!!!!
Best intro hasta el día sigue sin conocer la derrota 🎉
Still good after all these years
WHEN CHILD I JUST PLAYED FOR THE INTRO
hahaha I'm sremember this game as good as what i used to play it few years ago
I still remember characters there... the boy with black hair is named Syun Tohma.. girls with red hair is Suzie Newtlet ... our hero is named Aegis focker and the main villain in this game is Mr Gilliam Angreat... pilot of the VF-19's...
the song name is Get Free and wasn't a fire bomber song, is a hummind bird song =) and yes, there's a ost of this game (and the this OP single)
WTF, Man that was coooooooollll !!!!
demasiado bueno este juego y la presentacion para que decirlo... espectacular

gotta love that konig monster
i love this song. crazy...so anyway, how does everyone feel about the live action robotech coming out?!?! i am both excited and horrified.
I saw the japonease who sing this music here in Brazil in a manga festival. amaizing
Guns and Roses!!! Macross edition

Seconded!! - you remember that song too huh? It was really good.
I love this game !
if you put the game on a cd player you could listen the ending theme, at least that happened with my game
I still have my copy
@atomofish he Hummingbirds is Fukuyama's band.
Thanks for the name of the band mate.
this game kicks so much ass. not only does the music kick ass, but the story is accepted as official macross cannon. plus you have access to almost every valkyrie in the macross universe with the exception of very few.
its not without its flaws though, but i easily looked past those because i had a blast playing it.
This comment is 17 years old.... Incredible. I never knew this game existed until just now..
i also rembered that my favorite plane/robot was the one who is in the water in the video. although it wasn't the coolest looking, it definitely was efficient! its two guns makes it very reliable. i also remebered that the title on each stage are english movies or novels or something like that like "sing-ging in the rain (it sounded that way in the game!)" & "moby dick".
Yes, its design remember a heli biplane, got twin arm mounted machine guns; you could play almoat any mission on it.
the konig monster rules
vou morrer amando esta abertura !!
@takumivideos
No, el mismo kawamory dijo que estos personajes no tienen ninguna relacion familiar, Aegis solo es un personaje creado por kawamory como homenaje a Roy Focker.

wooooooohuuuu !!!!! este intro me va a volar la cabeza toda la vida !!!!!!!
oh yeah man. Koenig monster kicks serious ass
Anyone else think the next Macross anime should be based on this?
Best macross game, EVER
@shadowsam619 "get out of my sight" is what she says but yeah exactly!
hey i remember this game! this game is really cool because there are space & underwater fights + a land battle which lets your battroid fight like while walking or hovering! well, it's kinda hard 2 explain not unless you have played the game already.. the point is, this game is really cool & it could've been COOLER if it also has an ENGLISH VERSION FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT JAPANESE & FOR THOSE WHO CAN'T READ/UNDERSTAND JAPANESE LANGUAGE!!! ;p
este es uno de los pocos juegos de psx (de mechas q me encantaron ^^)
Yeah, it's him.
One visión!!! One visión!!!
@iced1138
Actually its from "The Hummingbirds," but he DOES sound a lot like Fukuyama.
Nostalgia
Is that opening by Yoshiki Fukuyama? It kind of sounded like him.
Yeah thats him.
man i have been looking for this song/vid for a long time, always been a fan of macross/robotech. sure the game play was subpar in this, but the opening was great, and the story looked amazing (if only i could understand it) the transforming monster set was awesome
-----SPOILER ALERT-------
like, i want to know why you start off friends with that one chick and guy, then last fight your killing them, what the frak happend. too bad couldnt read it.

if anybody need the song (get free by humming bird) only ask me ;) and so i give you the link and happy download :D
Yeah, that was a letdown, and I was hopeful when EGM announced it was coming. Graphics in the opening are cool. Poor thing, that tank that got squished by the VB-6.

Sure dude. ALL Macross games always have been superior in every aspects anyway.

What's the name of the character you are playing as? I had this game ages ago. What's your favourite VF? Mine is the EXCALIBUR and the KONIG MONSTER
Aegis Focker
リメイクしてほしいなぁ
