Gun Force II Longplay (Arcade) 60 FPS

Follow me on Twitter @ Get Great Retro Scene News @ Developed and published by Irem in 1994 Before Metal Slug, there was Gun Force II. This shooter bears an uncanny resemblances to the classic Neo Geo series of games, and no wonder: many of the team who worked on Gun Force II would later leave Irem to form Nazca. The core gameplay template is very similar in that it features frantic shooting action, pilot-able vehicles, as well some of the best 2D artwork seen in a video game. Unlike Metal Slug, however, players can climb ladders and hang from obstacles in a manner not dissimilar to some of the later Contra games. While it does add an extra dimension to the combat, it does make the controls more fiddly than they should be. Even so, it's an amazing game to look at, as well as one that's pretty decent to play!
