Commando: Steel Disaster
Here is something that is sure to test your patience and that might even drive you insane. We are talking about a game called ‘Commando: Steel Disaster’, which, despite the name similarity, bears no acquaintance to Capcom’s long-running series of Commando games.
In this action-packed game, you play as the heroic Storm and are pitted against an evil mastermind Rattlesnake and his minions, who are hell bent on dominating the world. Storm is a very vibrant figure in Commando and has many interesting moves at his disposal for fending off the enemy. He can run, jump, duck, and also roll to dodge enemy fire. He starts off with a simple gun, but as the game progresses he can equip himself with more sophisticated ones. It is important to have at least one powerful weapon to outmanoeuvre the massive boss who appears at the end of each level.
The nonstop drama certainly keeps you on your toes, but there are a few very memorable moments. The enemy appears faceless and the levels are unbelievably difficult. You are also made to face the same opponents for a very long time, who seem to appear from just about everywhere. Even successfully getting through the first few levels is brutally hard. You need to have extremely fast reflexes to stand any chance. The fact that you have only one life and have to restart from the very first level if you lose is simply demoralizing. Every other game has its own way of rewarding you and also gives you multiple lives. The graphics of the game, however, are lively and vibrant and complements the characters and surrounding nicely. Still, unless you enjoy inflicting yourself with pain, it might be best to steer clear of this title.
