Released: 1989
Rampage is an action game that was first released in the Arcade in 1986.
+ Has a whopping 132 stages and your constantly depleting life bar gives the game an edgy survival element.+ Includes all three monsters from the Arcade, and recognising what items harm or heal you requires quick thinking.
+ Unlike the NES version (1988), continues are limited which is more of an incentive to try and beat your high score.
- Gameplay is mind-numbingly repetitive and there's barely anything new that gets introduced to keep you engrossed.
- Offers very little in the way of scenic variety and without different things to see you never feel like you're progressing.
- Controls can sometimes be unresponsive when bashing buildings, and the hit detection is spotty when punching choppers.
- Graphics and textures aren't as detailed as the NES version, and it's harder to distinguish items from one another.
