Commando

This is the one you've all been waiting for, the C16 version of the C64 version of the film of the book, etc.

Elite has done a good job of converting this game, and the result is a fast, nerve-wracking shoot-'em-up that you'll never get tired of.

The first screen is tough. GI Joe has to storm the enemy positions to get through to the next screen, while under vicious crossfire.

Joe seems a little hard to manoeuvre, and certain parts of the screen are definitely no go areas.

The secret is to use your cover to the best advantage.
