I loved this game on my amiga! I bought it for the SNES last year and it wasn't syndicate, just some cruddy shoot 'em up, a bit like cannon fodder but without the playability.

ha ha, sounds about right, the conversions never did work, playing that game without a mouse would be a mare!

i have an amiga, maybe i should buy it for that, just wanted to get it running on my pc if possible

How can this thread have got this far without anyone mentioning the flame thrower???

I used to thoroughly enjoy taking out a crowd of innocent bystanders with the flame thrower, and watching them all run around on fire!!! )

For those that are interested, there is an ongoing project to make a remake of the original, which can be found here: http://freesynd.sourceforge.net/

yes the flame thrower! ha ha

for me i loved running people over in the car type things!

Must admit I've not actually tried it yet, it's one of those things you find at work and keep forgetting to look up when you get home.

I really must check it out, along with an ALien Breed remake!!!

yeah it's quite cool, although i had trouble moving around the screen, it's still early days though.... great find mate!
