The structure of the game gives it good speed running potential.

Alien Soldier needs to be mentioned.

It was hard as hell at 1st but then it started to sink in how it worked. Still way challenging but that's a good thing to me.

Elevator Action returns is awsome also, but i loved Rolling thinder so there you go.

Btw... was rolling thunder 3 released in japan on the megadrive?

For some strange reason no. It was announced in Japan but only released in the US.

Meh, I didn't like Alien Solider all that much. WAY too many damn bosses. Same flaw Contra: SS had(although I did S-rank that game eventually, so it must have been some fun >_>)

Meh, I thought Alien Soldier didn't have enough bosses.
Also, I'd like to say that Aladdin for GEN is pretty damn good.

Alien Soldier is a platform game?

Strider77 · Post by **Strider77** » Fri Aug 31, 2007 2:05 pm

I'd classify it as one, it has platforming areas, although alien soldier is way offbeat and kind of a bizzare game to start with as far as structure goes.

Doesn't the Dreamcast have a 2.5D platformer starring a girl that only came out in Japan? I don't remember the name but it looked interesting.
