So this is the final boss from one of Capcom's other mid-90s ventures, Cyberbots; a fighting game based on the character of their previous beat-em-up, Armored Warriors. This game seems a bit polarising; people either seem to love it or they find it forgettable and just another Capcom anomaly. I'm definitely in the latter camp; like the Marvel Vs series I just find the gameplay too frantic in this one to be very respectable. All the models are hugely different and inconsistent in their playstyles. If this game had had more sequels then this would be worth putting some time into, but considering most of these character styles are unique it's a lot of time put into a system which can't provide much use elsewhere, in the same way that playing other fighting games can help you play other fighting games.
The Helion is the final boss at least of Jin Saotome's story. He's quick, often airborne and really has the ability to devastate the opponent with constant fire as well the ability to destroy their parts with ease. If you were thinking of trying out this game (or just one of the bosses of this game) I'd recommend trying out this one as it seems the easiest to use. I've only done gameplay for this game as I find the difficulty spikes too quickly and the gameplay gets too frantic for my liking. Anyway, enjoy what footage I have done of it.
