The Video Game Critic
This vertically-scrolling shooter lets one or two players play Rambo through several jungle stages. While the action is fast and fun, comparisons to the NES version are unavoidable. The graphics are much sharper and cleaner on the NES, and the animation is smoother as well. Fortunately, the 7800 gameplay is about the same, if not better. Still, the graphics do detract somewhat from the experience. For example, it's difficult to tell when an enemy soldier has been shot - it looks like he takes a few steps backwards and disappears. Still I found the control to be excellent, better than the NES. You use the left button for shooting, and your right button to throw grenades. The difficulty level is fair and the exciting gameplay will keep you coming back for more.

Here's a first. Actually, this could be an "only." As it turns out, "Ikari Warriors" is better on the 7800 than it is on Nintendo's NES. This version is faster, easier, and just more enjoyable in the end. That's about all you need for a quality product.
