A silly review of Recca

You might enjoy the description of Recca on www.romhacking.net, a site of game hacks and translations (in this case the highly recommended and already mentioned Recca Pure):

Damn. I mean..Day-amn! This is a shooter. I mean…an NES shooter…Faster than any other NES game out there. This game makes the concept of Blast Processing about as slow as Stewart Smiley. And it's TOUGH. Like, so tough it walks up to R-Type on a beach and kicks sand into its face. And huge bosses. Gotta love huge bosses. Treasure made their living on huge bosses, and this game has huge bosses. It's not by Treasure, but HUGE FUCKING BOSSES!! Roight.

Except for the non-sequitur reference to Treasure, it's spot-on...

It's not that hard though. I've finished Recca, but not any R-Type. Not even Final (Not that I've actually tried though

)
