Description
B-Movie
Sony PlayStation PS1
The story for Invasion From Beyond is based on the golden age of B-Movie science fiction thrillers, and goes like this: farm workers have been abducted and crop circles were discovered in farmlands outside Washington, D.C.. The locals' insults towards superstitious fears ("Slap an Alien") were a welcome party for the Martians ready to strike. You are a fully qualified Earthlink and must pilot your ship to stop the alien invasion by manipulating the ground-based firepower of Earthlink Command and prevent the aliens from taking over our beloved planet Earth.
The game features more than 30 missions of futuristic action with many secret levels, ships and weapons. Your prime directive is to kill all invading alien forces. However, whenever Earthlink Command wants you to complete a specific objective, you will be notified via a flashing communications icon.
Your ship features a radar, cargo hold, weapon mounts, aiming reticule and the Suck-O-Matic. The Suck-O-Matic is an experimental device used to teleport and blow items in and out of your ship's cargo hold. It is an essential part for much of the game's objectives.
You start the game with a machine gun and the Pummel Rocket. The machine gun is an auto-targeting chain gun that will shoot lead right at your alien enemies. The Pummel Rocket is an unguided rocket that needs your accuracy to be fatal. There are 12 more weapons that you will find as the game progresses.
The initial ships include the Silverfish, the first candidate in the U.N. fleet for frontline duty against the alien invasion. You also have access to the Red Devil, a fast and responsive aircraft, and the Whiplash MK.2, an incredibly speedy ship that can prove to be potentially dangerous. There are nine more ships for you to find in this 3D Arcade-style shooter with explosions, lighting and particle effects, multiple camera angles and in-game cut-scenes -- all at 50 frames per second!

Grading
Please Note: Every disc is tested and guaranteed to work, with professional resurfacing applied where needed. Excellent and Very Good grades both include the Original Jewel Case, Front Booklet/Manual, Back Cover Inlay, and Game Disc. Our Excellent grade is our best available, not "as new" — if you're after a pristine, professionally graded copy, we'd recommend sourcing that through a dedicated grading service instead.
| Grade | What's Included | Case & Disc Condition |
|---|---|---|
| Excellent | Disc + Original Jewel Case + Booklet + Back Inlay | Our best available grade. Hinges operational. Case may show small cracks, light scuffing, minor marks, or the odd retail sticker — we mix and match the best plastics we have, but this isn't a mint or graded copy. Booklet is in top shape overall, with minimal dog-ears or creasing and no tears; may occasionally show faint watermarking on the white reverse side. |
| Very Good | Disc + Original Jewel Case + Booklet + Back Inlay | Our standard pre-owned grade. Case may show heavier cracking, scuffs, chips, stress marks, broken hinges, or old retail sticker residue. Booklet is fully complete but shows more noticeable wear than an Excellent copy — dog-ears, creasing, and more prevalent watermarking on the white reverse side are all expected. |
| Good | Disc + Case (NO MANUAL / BOOKLET) |
The players' copy. Comes with the original jewel case — front and rear artwork inlays may be included, but aren't guaranteed at this grade. Expect the case plastic to typically be cracked or broken; it's done its job protecting the disc, just not going to win any beauty contests. Disc is fully tested and working. Perfect if you just want to play the game and aren't precious about how the case looks. |
| Disc only | Game Disc Only (NO CASE / NO BOOKLET) |
Our budget option. Disc only, no case, booklet, or rear inlay. Shipped securely in a protective sleeve inside a rigid mailer. |
