Thunder Fox for the Sega Genesis is a port of the 1990 arcade game of the same name by Taito. The plot of the game is a cliched tale of a militaristic terrorists threatening to take over the world. Of course, since sending the army would be too risky in diplomatic terms, they have two shirtless commandoes codenamed Thunder and Fox. The game itself is your basic side scrolling action platformer in the vein of other classics like Rolling Thunder, and appropriately enough, Rush and Attack. The gameplay however is slightly different because the Genesis port removes the two player co-op feature that made the game fun, but it doesn't hinder the game too much. The stages are a bit lengthier than their arcade counterparts, which adds to the challenge, and some of the end bosses are slightly different (i.e. fighting an attack helicopter in Stage 1 instead of the tank as seen in the arcade version), but not too hard to defeat. The music which was rather upbeat in some points but quite fluid has been slowed down which gives it a serious tone in some cases. One feature gamers might take note with is that this game allows players to use weapons they pick up such as guns, assault rifles, and even bazookas as melee weapons which allow them to use the weapon's ammunition when a situation calls for gunfire. To end this review, if you are looking for a decent side-scroller with Rambo-esque action, Thunder Fox is it.Read full review
