Chest of Obscurity #87: Aleste
2#87 is slightly obscure due to the title itself but its legacy lied with the games we gained from it. Aleste, like earlier shooters didn't get much time in the spotlight until later titles were introduced like The Guardian Legend, Gun-Nac, MUSHA, Blazing Lasers and Space Megaforce made waves in the late 80s into mid 90s.
The plot: The story of Aleste concerns the manmade supercomputer DIA 51, which has been infected by a hybrid virus that is spreading like wildfire, eventually leading DIA 51 to eliminate the human race. When Yuri, Ray's girlfriend, gets injured in DIA's assault, Raymond Waizen has all the reason in the world to get rid of DIA 51 once and for all in his Aleste fighter.
Series created by Compile, passed on to Raizing.
