"One of the best Genesis game ever!"

Okay, to start off, Rolling Thunder 3 is the third game of the Rolling Thunder games. I have not play 1 or 2 but I understand they are not as good. This game has decent graphics for a Genesis game, a good story, nice sound and a great gameplay. It beats some games even from the more advance consoles like Dreamcast or the PS/2/

Graphics-8/10
On the Genesis, graphics are hard, but it's pretty good. 3D environment with a 2D base characters/monsters. The bosses are nicely done and the enemies itself. Even the guns look good.

Story-10/10
I really like the story, how a guy name Jake advances through the land and seeks....seeks what I wonder? Play it to get it (Good luck finding it though =P). If you play it, you'll know why it got a 10/10. It gives you an RPG kind of feeling where you want to play on to defeat the boss or something of that line.

Sound-8/10
The sound is good, from the screams of dogs dying, to the explosions of a gun. The game as attracting tunes for you to hum while playing. Although it lacks in stuff during the cutscenes, during gameplay is fairly great. Also, apparently, the bosses tend to mumble rubbish when you first see them or when you attack him. The main character tend to say only 2 thing...well one unless you count screams as words.

Gameplay-9/10
The gameplay is great, although the game itself could have been a lot longer than it is. 10 Levels for you to advance and doors for you to explore. Guns for you to choose from and even bombs. Hard levels, easy levels, it all fun. If you feel that a certain level you cannot beat, you can always try to look for a code for the level either here on Gamefaqs or another site. Every time you die, you acquire a number password that allows you to return to that level. I personally don't recommend using a password to skip a level (you also miss out the story and if it's one of the levels that has a boss or something like that, you miss out) but I understand that some of the levels could be hard to beat, so yeh, your choice.

Overall, this is a great game to play for the fun of it. It is short, but some of the levels are very hard to defeat (try level 9....) and the final boss....gosh don't remind me. If you got time to look for it, please do, shouldn't cost much and should be fun. Have fun. =)
