Hi there!
The night before the grande finale of the EURO 2008, I found time for a another quick one:
Renegade that is, a conversion of a Taito arcade game! I'm not sure if it was the first, but it was defintely one of the first wave of brawlers. When you've seen one of them you've seen them all I guess, so this one didn't excite me that much. I don't even know what I was fighting for this time, but I'm sure some evil guy did some really evil things
So you're relying on your fists once again, fighting everyone in your way to the endboss. The graphics are pretty ugly, especially the women in mission 3. The music is above average though.
The game feels a bit short, because after the mission 4 boss it already said:
Well, I think that's a genre that was just too young on the 8-Bit machines. Sometime later on the Genny did it really shine with Golden Axe and Streets of Rage.
Some future day the "Playing..." series may see its sequel "Target Renegade", but first it will continue with something rather comical I think.
Greetings,
Manuel
