StanJr Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Picked this up today and was pleasantly surprised. I don't know what I was expecting, but this is a real Coleco gem. Is it fair to compare this to Commando? They seem very similar, but I think Front Line may be better. You get to be a tank, there is no flicker, the sprites are colorful, but not garish (like the backgrounds in Commando can be). But is it so different from Commando that they cannot be compared? Anyway, I am pretty impressed by this game. Anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NovaXpress Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I prefer it to Commando and Ikari Warriors as well. Coleo didn't try to do too much with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic George 2K3 Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I'm not sure I enjoy either game, though I did stumble across Front Line at a tag sale somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 I like Front Line myself. I always had a soft spot for the arcade game and while the Atari version isnt spot on, it's a darn good translation. Without some sort of special controller the over all experience is going to be different, if you'll remember the arcade game had that big ol knob you would turn 360 and push down on to fire, but Front Line was a fav when I was a kid.

kyle Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 Both are alot of fun! But commando seems to be a bit harder and has a little more gameplay value to it and better graphics. So i would say i like commando better than front line. But the tanks in front line rule! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
