ooh naughty vending machine

Fairly enjoyable game despite its age. I am yet to complete chapter 1 - the siege of tobruk, have flown 3-5 missions and am having fun so far. I am playing with an xbox 360 type wired controller-gamepad in arcade control mode so idk how it would feel on keyboard. There is also a controller simulation mode available which offers greater control. I recommend using a controller for this game.

You play as DeeDee an independent pilot who works as smuggler and similar flight related odd jobs now bought into the fold against the Nazis during WWII. You are paid to fly covert , off the books pilot missions. I play on pilot difficulty. There are four difficulties rookie, pilot, veteran and ace. So far the weapons i used on the planes were guns, bombs and missiles.

p.s - i am playing this game for the first time. I also like the comic book style used for telling the story,

The story tests (in fun tests section) are highly recommended by me. It is hard not to mull over the results.

Although at first(before buying) i though the game was about cooking and how life is for immigrants and their children(my sister moved to Canada with her husband and daughter and is now a Canadian) when i played it i saw that it also showed me things from a parents perspective, their thoughts, struggles, triumphs, love and loss. The attention to details of South Indian culture are good as per a friend of mine. The game can be a tear jerker for some. Also it is set in the 80s.

This game is fun and good despite it feeling out of place to ride a bike using w,s,a,d and controller being tough to use for melee combat, aiming, and sprinting. I decided to use keyboard and mouse finally. The game is about a few decent men trying to stay decent in hard times post zombie apocalypse. I have seen a bit of theradbrad's walkthrough before playing this which helps with decision making and makes the game enjoyable.

You play as one of the three bounty hunters often hired to hunt down the felons and keep the peace in a post apocalyptic future where street gangs and selfish MNCs run the world. The game has a neat feature like taking cover which was new for me in a run and gun game. There are melee weapons and throwables like grenades. I encountered various guns like shotgun, SMG and assault rife available at various points during my playthough. In coop your partner can be revived and vice versa.

The game is fun to play with a friend. You can invite a friend to remoteplay with you. Sadly not possible to invite 2 friends for remoteplay, but possible to locally have 1-2 people to play with you.

Official description :
You are an elite battle cyborg who is sent in to investigate a series of anomalies on a mysterious island. The merciless alien known as the 'Xirxul life form' has been awakened by unwitting scientists and now: all humanity is in danger!.

my word:
This is a run and gun game similar to contra. The games is a lot of fun when I use 40 lives and Weapon select cheat, the level design is good and the bosses are fun to fight. the enemies are well made too. the game cost me 64/- on sale and can be played in online COOP. i cancelled my refund and decided to give this game another go because of the good level design. music is okay too. It is fun even in solo mode.

official mission briefing
--------------------------------
Year: 26XX AD. The Galuga Archipelago off the coast of New Zealand is ground zero for a mysterious meteor shower. Six months later, the Red Falcon terrorist group invades the island, and unusual gravity waves can be detected emanating from the area. The Earth Federation sends in the GX Army for reconnaissance, but contact has been lost. With no other viable options, the Earth Marine Corps dispatches its most elite soldiers - Bill Rizer and Lance Bean of the Contra unit - to investigate and neutralise any potential threats. The conflict that follows turns the once-peaceful island into an all-out warzone where the fate of mankind hangs in the balance.

my review
--------------
the game is fun to play while being more forgiving than the older games. you get a lot of continues. the game unlike previous iterations has difficulty levels, you can play on easy, normal or hard. you can also chose one-hit deaths. the game offers variety of perks like special weapon retention on death and options to start with a special weapon type to name a few. perks have to be purchased from the perk shop with credits earned from playing the game. additionally the game has a story mode,arcade mode for up to 4 players co-op and a challenge mode. Story mode gives an idea about what is happening while you run and gun where as the arcade mode has pure action without the story. Challenge mode has different challenges set out for you to test your mettle.

Remoteplay doesn't work properly, the second controller isn't detected properly in story mode. It shows keyboard and mouse as second controller in story and arcade mode remoteplay i'd recommend waiting until that is fixed before buying this game.

possible solution for remoteplay p2 not working in story mode
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

by CoPilotLindy:

My friend and I had the same issue but we figured out how to work around the bug:

Instead of Story mode, go into Arcade Mode. For whatever reason it'll force the remote player into P3 slot, but that's fine. Both of you select your characters and start Arcade Mode into the first level. Once the level starts, pause and quit out back to the main menu. Go back into Story Mode now and it should just suddenly work with the remote player as P2 (at least it did for us). But heads up that you have to do this every time you restart the game from Steam if you want to continue in story mode. Disappointing this wasn't caught before release, clearly people were going to use remote play to do coop.

This would have been fun even without the sexual content. the game is humorous. you have to shoot a bunch of zombies to progress amongst other things. Just like the game's name the sex part is mostly comic and wee bit lewd too imo.
