![]() I was seriously debating if this game counted as a Run ‘N Gun game and I think it does, but I will understand why people might disagree. The gameplay is slow and a bit too repetitive. However, Cyber-Lip is not as good and that’s why it’s in the number 10 spot. The gameplay is very similar to Contra or Metal Slug which makes sense because the people who made this game will eventually go on to make Metal Slug. This supercomputer went rogue and took control of all the military androids and is attacking the human race. veteran soldiers who are sent by the federal government to destroy a supercomputer.

Technically any game in which you move around and fire a weapon can be considered a Run ‘N Gun game, so I had to narrow it down. The hardest part of writing this list was defining the Run ‘N Gun genre. I thought this would be the easier list, but I was wrong. ![]() The results were a tie between Top 10 Licensed Games that Wasted Their Potential (which will be done eventually) and Top 10 Run ‘N Gun games which I’m doing today. I left it up to my Twitter followers by posting a poll. I had a bunch of ideas in my head, but no strong feeling about which list I wanted to do next.
