name that game
« on: September 03, 2012, 03:15:45 pm »
Hey guys,  I'm trying to figure out the name of a gun game from the late 80s early 90s and I don't have much to go on other than what I can remember. All you could see was the cross hairs of the gun you had, there were buildings with bad guys that popped out . I'm not sure, but it could have been the arcade version of golgo 13. But I can't find anything on it. I know I have it mame, because I stumbled across it once but I didn't add it to my favorites. Any thoughts guys?  Thanks!

Now that I think of it, I don't even think you had a gun. I think you just used the joystick and button.

So it wasn't Operation Wolf?

No Gun? Sounds a little like Blasted, by Midway

Figured it out. The game is Empire city1931 and I just found out it had a sequel called Dead angle. If you guys haven't checked it out, you should! It's a pretty cool game. Dropped a lot of quarters in this one back in the day!
