Time Commando

One of my favorite childhood games!

I admit... I would normally give this thing a 5, but my rating is mostly due to nostalgia factor--playing this game as a kid and whatnot. I will most likely pick it up whenever I can--it's too classic for me not to! Plus, fond memories of watching my Dad play it. Also, has some interesting levels and devices. Perhaps, it might best be rated at a 3.5 or so--controls can be a frustration, as they aren't as tight as videogames nowadays.

So, you like punishingly hard games? Maybe with horrible tank controls? Where you control a guy who sometimes just can't land a hit? Where AI visibly cheats and avoids your punches and kicks with ease, while landing 2-3 hit combos on your face? Where you lose your life upgrades after death? And say, you like when savepoints are one or two per level, and sometimes hidden? Well then here's your new favourite game! Seriously, for the very first time I regret buying a game here.

I played this game long time ago when I was a kid, for me this game is the essence of what a video game can achieve: - Good athmosphere through levels - Great adventures with bonuses - Lot of weapons and ennemis - Very good graphics for the time - Fun fun fun ! I recomend it, even if I feel nostolgic studios are not doing game like this today...
