Rolling Thunder

This time it’s Rolling Thunder, one of my favorite arcade games of all time. I love its look, its deliberate approach to action, and its absolutely fantastic soundtrack. You have to watch the enemies, use the doors, manage your ammunition, and know when to move. Usually, I remember that last part just after getting shot.

The Genesis received Rolling Thunder 2 and Rolling Thunder 3, but never the original. That always felt like unfinished business. So, now that’s fixed!
