Released: 1997
Shock Troopers is a run 'n' gun title that didn't see release on SNK's home consoles.
+ The eight playable characters and ability to choose your route from the get-go encourages multiple play-throughs.
+ The controls are rock solid and there's no understating how great the 'clicky' analog stick works for multi-directional firing.
+ Unlike some run 'n' gun titles, there are no second-rate weapons and each one make you feel super powerful.
+ Level design is outstanding with many twist and turns, and the destructible scenery brings the game world to life.
+ Graphics are remarkable with rich texture detail / sprite scaling and the cut-scenes add weight to the unoriginal story.
+ The music has many adrenaline pumping tracks and the snare drum sound is impressively realistic.
- Frequent slowdown when too many enemy sprites are on-screen at the same time.
