Obscure Game Theater - Rolling Thunder - NES

Now that I watch it again, the enemies sorta look like Rainbow Brite KKK members. That makes the game far creepier.

Maybe you should see if you can get Kinison here to take a stab at it and post it online. He seems well versed. ;)

These enemies really do look like the hell spawn of a KKK meeting at a crayola factory.

I love this game, its awesome and hard. Enough to keep you on your toes all the time. The sequel on the Genesis is cooler, except the the third one.

@TheDemoniusX I love Code Name: Viper! Never finished it though :(

Looks like the Klan decided to accessorize and display some color, as opposed to their drab-ass white for their whole supremacy racket...

The hero himself is incredibly strange-looking, with his pool cue legs and all...doesn't he kinda resemble an armed "Ed Grimly"?

Play "Code Name : Viper" the game steals the gameplay from this game to a T.

Am I the only one who thinks they look like rejected Spiderman costumes?

This is a great game. One of my favorite NES titles.

Duck and shoot is a common technique in this type of game (see also Codename: Viper). I like how the background art uses shadows to create the illusion of depth (see also Low G Man).

I remember renting rolling thunder 2 & 3 for the genesis when I was a kid. Those were really fun games with some pretty cool set pieces.
