Description

In 1991 Rogue Trooper, the haunted-bio-chip-assisted genetic infantryman of 2000 AD comic book fame, became the aforementioned starring protagonist of his own Amiga and Atari ST game courtesy of Krisalis. It's an infuriatingly difficult blend of traditional platforming and first-person perspective flying levels reminiscent of Space Harrier. Reaching the end of the much more interesting platforming stages to capture footage for the video version of this article nearly sent me to an early grave. My reward was progression to the seemingly endless and goalless airborne shoot 'em up segment. With absolutely no indication offered regarding the correct route to successfully completing the task, I gave up, feeling so disillusioned I literally-metaphorically turned blue to match Rogue.
