Aliens, big guns, and robots.  What more could one ask for from a game?  Explosions?  Fire?  Well, this game has all of that, and its quite fun actually.  The plot is fairly simple.  You (and maybe your friend, if you are playing two player) are the lone survivor(s) of a devastating attack on earth by a race of aliens.  You use your massive arsenal of weapons to destroy any robots or aliens that happen to stand in your way to victory.

    The layout of the game's levels can get quite repetitive sometimes.  Run around, fight a boss.  Run around, fight a boss.  Luckily, the programmers added in aerial view levels, in which you search for all the bunkers in the level and destroy them.  Finally, you kill a boss at the end of those levels.  These above view levels are some of my favorites.

    This game is pretty violent, but the only time you ever kill a "living" creature is when you fight the aliens.  The only other enemies are robots.  Sometimes you can command a vehicle, such as a tank, to aid you in your quest for alien eradication.
