Title: Help me identify this game!
Post by: BioHazard on June 06, 2004, 07:46:31 AM
I've been looking for an amiga war game for some time now.
the game looks very much like Commando's but with much better animations.
The game starts out with US soldier with a knife initially fighting what looked to me like Iraqi(soldiers with turbans). The US soldier kills the first enemy soldier by cutting his throat then picks up his gun(m16 Ak74 or whatever). then the US soldier make his way into buildings picking up grenade and magazines and clearing mines, killing any one he meets to save POWs. I played this game once with my friend long time ago but I can't remember the title and further details.
can you help me identify this game?

Did you have a team?
Was it turn based strategy or realtime action game?

No, you're all wrong, I remember that game too.

...and yes, of course I cannot remember the name of it, but I spent a rather long time playing it.

Sincerely,

EDIT:

For completing a level you would get bronze, silver og gold medal or some such, depending on how good you were, right? Or am I mixing games again now?

fireforce roxx but i hate the scrolling, could have been so much better... that was the only let down... :-(

anyway i recall i found a way to cheat weapons, holding down firebutton while u waited for the chopper iirc and u got unlimited ammo for the gun u had on the level.

something like that anyway....maybe hol has some info about it :-)

Hoya!

Except for the turbans, this could have been P.O.W. by SNK...

But since you have discovered the title... :-)

Looks cool anyway.

Be funky
