CibbuanoSega brings side scrolling fun to the Wii
December 30th 2006 09:41
Back in the old Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) days, game developer Treasure released an interesting and addictive side-stroller named Gunstar Heroes. Thirteen years later, and countless titles following the same gameplay, Sega is re-releasing this title on the Wii. When I first heard of this title, it did not really strike me as one which really made an impact in the old-gen days of gaming. Still, this game looks to be a good title with high resemblance to the Metal Slug series (from what I can see!).
Gunstar is easy to play, though difficult to finish and should appeal to gamers who like simple 2D graphics in a comic like atmosphere. Multiplayer functionality is also present in this title, with players being able to work alongside each other to complete missions and support each other in difficult instances. Weapons are also various, ranging from rifles, flame throwers to lasers…although what the whole storyline of the game focuses on is quite bizarre. Players essentially play a Gunstar twin, who must save the world from an evil villain who has stolen a whole heap of mystical gems. Moreover, it is the player’s aim to recover them.
