I need a name of a game :)

[Everblue]

I remember a particular game which I would like to play again, but unfortunately its name escapes me. Here is a brief description:

1. You play a soldier in some arabian desert

2. The game is a side scroller.

3. You had a choice of different weapons such as rifle, health, knife etc.

4. The first level started (I think) by dropping off a helicopter, then there was a truck and you had to hide under it. You could crawl and shoot I think.

5. You could enter tents to get more ammunition etc.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Maybe someone can help me remember a game too.
There was a game for the A500 that I had a demo for when I was a kid, and I really liked the demo, but never came across the game.

The game is a side-scrolling shooter similar to Contra, Metal Slug, Turrican, etc.
It involves a futuristic hero who travels through time to different places and periods in history.
The demo had an Egyptian level.
That's all I can remember.

That sounds like Titus the Fox to me... (Although, not really a futuristic hero)

@Kedawa

Fireforce

This thread made me think of Airborne ranger so i just copied my airborne ranger adf file to my minimig and hoops seems like i am hooked to this wonderful game, thanks a lot   ;-)

[kedawa]

I checked out Assassin, but that's not it.  Strider is one of my favorite games ever, at least on MegaDrive/Genesis, so I know it isn't that either.

I'll have to keep looking.

There's also this other game I've been thinking about.  It's like Rastan or Black Tiger, but I think it's exclusive to the Amiga.  It isn't Barbarian.  I believe the hero wore armor and may have been a viking.

 Is Leander the title of your second game?

[kedawa]

Nope.  Leander does look pretty cool, though.

@ Kedawa

The game you descibe might be Deliverance - a platform game featuring a Viking slaying all manner of beasties and naked women strung up in a castle.  Agreat game with strange motion sickness inducing scrolling! :lol:
