Retro commander rv game full#

You can watch the full longplay video HERE! It's alright but it should've been better. As a game in it's own right though, I'll be fair and give this a four. So.as arcade conversions goes, out of ten I'd give this a three as it's a poor implementation of the original. There's some lastability here for hi-scores though. The game itself is fairly easy to clock, so expect to go a few rounds with this before you finally cash in your commando chips. There are only 2 spot sound effects, Joe's gunfire which is fairly standard fare and a girly cry when an enemy gets hit. The graphics themselves are nice and chunky with a fair decent use of colour which does give a fairly warm feel to the coin-op itself.

With all it's omissions and faults though this is actually a pretty decent blast providing you don't associate it with the arcade original. OK so that's the game, and a very short game it is. Then an all too quick congrats message flickers by before the game loops over again, and again, and again.

2 windows each with a german to dispatch plus 3 rocket launching nazis to dispose of. Level 4 – Just 5 waves of 3 gormless enemies with rocket launchers each on an obstacless screen to kill. Joe dispatches them with ease when he quickly works out the attack pattern. Level 3 – Another river and bridge with 2 more trenches beyond it. Just be a coward and shoot 'em in the backs boy. Yes Joe, that's because they're too stupid to think about firing upwards. 'Wait, I'm up here yet they're still firing downwards?' Joe suddenly realises. So he makes a mad dash to the top of the screen losing a life in the process. I can't stay down here like a sitting duck!' ponders Joe. Level 2 – Another trench, a river with a bridge to cross and enemies which move around with rocket launchers. It then suddenly dawns on the player that the game doesn't scroll like the other versions. Yes OK Joe, I think I'll leave out the 'Super' here from now on in bud. Unfortunately for Joe though, he cannot walk diagonal. Well OK, Joe just has a tommy gun which is fine. I hope the jerries have a few lying around' (which they don't). 'Hmm, where's my grenades?' Joe then wonders. 'Best dispose of them quick' Joe mutters. Super Joe starts off at the bottom of the screen and finds himself being immediately shot at by enemies in trenches. The game starts off with an OK title screen which has the large Commando logo splashed along the top. There's not much else to it about the plot, so onto the gameplay. The aim of the game is to kill all the enemy soldiers on each of the 5 levels to complete the mission. Super Joe (a strange rank for a soldier) has been thrown deep inside enemy german territory, I suspect it's somewhere south outside of Europe. Most people are familiar with the coin-op.
