Andro
Dunos has taken a lot
of flak over the years. The main reason being
is that at 34Mbit it is one of the smallest Neo
Geo titles in terms of raw size, and it's a long
way away from from being a jaw-dropping visual
extravaganza.
Thing is, it's not a bad game at all. It's quite
good even - it just doesn't even vaguely attempt
to make the most of the Neo Geo's capabilities,
and that was the thing that caused so much confusion
amongst the gaming press and those who listen
to them.
Forget them. They were, are, and always have been
wrong. The Neo Geo is by very definition an expensive
format, and regardless of its price what we have
here is a perfectly acceptable 2-player shooting
game. It may not be as good as ASO
II (1991) or Last
Resort (1992), but it's still a good laugh.
It's certainly much better than Ghost
Pilots (1991).
Having missed out on a Neo Geo CD release, the
game has slowly become a cult classic of sorts,
and its Neo Geo ROM release has been steadily
rising in price, now fetching well over $200.
Funny how things work out. |
