Action packed!
If you're familiar with the Turrican series of games then you'll love Midnight Resistance. It features 10 levels of similar gameplay with hordes of enemies coming at you from all directions and enough mega-firepower to deal with them all. You'll be leaping, jumping, climbing and crawling everywhere as hundreds of bursts of gunfire blaze across the screen. The fire-fight just doesn't let up for a second for the entire game. And you'll love it.
Having said that, it's a very weird and surrealistic game. You're supposed to be a member of some Drug Enforcemant Squad, according to the instructions, but the enemies are often demonic and the 'story' takes you through industrial cities, laboratories, forests and outer-space to battle giant, disembodied brain stems and free you're family from mad scientists. Very weird indeed.
But that was all the rage back in 1990, when arcade games were filled with bizarre imagery and disorientating level designs to keep you off-guard. Like other games of the era it is very, very hard; a dastardly ploy to make you spend more and more money to get through the game. But when you had this much fun, it was worth it. Definitely one to hunt down.
