A graphically impressive arcade game with a politically correct plot. Sometime in the near future, Earth has been laid waste by man's pollution. A series of robots have been developed to help clean it up. By a freak series of circumstances, one of these gets hooked up to an old nuclear warhead, develops megalomaia, and, well, you can guess the rest. Vectorman is the game's hero - the pilot of a spacefaring garbage scow who decides to take Warhead the cyber-dictator head-on.

The fantastic graphics, almost liquid animation, and driving technosynth score make up for the holes in the plot. Both Vectorman games are must-haves for every Genesis fan.
