trying to remember a game=Rolling Thunder
« on: August 07, 2011, 02:39:46 pm »
I think it was the late 80s or early 90s (operation wolf was around at the time, but that just means after '87 when I SAW the game).  

I think it was a 1 player game.  (I seem to remember that my brother and I could NOT play at the same time.)

You start with a pistol and on the screen was a first floor and a second floor above.  You have to shoot the guys on both floors before they shot you.  I think it also had a bunch of doors that you could go in and come out of.  You might go up to the second floor or get a better gun.  

I think the guy you were playing as had a blue shirt and black pants.  

Thanks!

Fantastic game with fantastic music. Most of it is pattern based and memorizable though. One of my top favorite arcade games of all time.

Ok, so on KLOV, it talks about a new version and an old version of the board.  What is that about?

I checked and can't find what you are referring to.

A PCB + Manual just sold on ebay for about $157.50.  I didn't know this game was so in demand.

I just played this game for the first time after seeing this thread and it's awesome. A lot of fun. I love games that take you back a few steps after you die. This game reminds me of some kind of james bond
