"What is so cool about this?"

This game, brilliant or bogus? Well really both, bogus in terms of game play and brilliant in terms of graphics. If you like brilliant graphics and a has very bad game play, buy this now, it will fit all your gaming needs. If you are thinking of buying this game read on.

As I mentioned above the graphics are actually quite good, there a colourful, good backgrounds, cars in the game look like they have smoke coming out the back. Although it sounds the graphics are really good and a lot of effort has gone into them, it hasn't, the backgrounds repeat more times than an episode of friends. The game is side scrolling. You won't notice the changes to the background much at first but as you progress through the levels you will look at the background and think "hey I saw that building two buildings ago" this is when you will want to turn of the NES and put in something good. The reason why the graphics are so colourful and detailed is because there is so few therefore the developers could put a lot more effort into them.

The sounds are even more repetitive, there honestly can not be more than 10 seconds of sound in this game, it just loops and loops and loops. It gets tedious. So a good thing to do if you buy this game, is to turn the sound on the TV off, or your precious NES may get hurt through frustration. This is not what you want to happen.

Story??? What story??, Well there was some story, well 3 lines at the start and that is it. I don't know what was going on in the game, all I knew was to jump and throw bombs at random cars and dogs walking out of strip clubs, not much of a story is it?

Game Play is where this game fails big time. It does not do anything to keep you interested and is very repetitive, throw bomb, no bombs left, run wildly around town, find bomb, repeat. That is not a fun game. It can be done way too easily, jump high enough and you have avoided most enemies in the game. This is not what a game should be like, it should be slightly challenging with something to keep you interested.

Do not buy this game, it seems like a flash game that you can play on the net, and most of them are better, if you find it for 50p you might as well buy it, you may have fun. This game was not for me, it was far too un-challenging. The final score is a 4, might have got a 5 or 6 had the graphics not looped.

- Pros

. Good Graphics

- Cons

. No Story.
. Un-challenging
