Rolling Thunder 2
System(s): Sega Mega Drive
Developer:
Genre: Run and gun

















Rolling Thunder 2 is a run and gun game by Namco, originally released in 1990 for the arcade and ported to the Sega Mega Drive in 1991 (though Europe got a release in 1992). It is the second game in the Rolling Thunder trilogy (the first game was not released on a Sega platform; the third was released exclusively for the Mega Drive).

Geldra, the evil organization you destroyed in the original game, returns as Neo-Geldra under new leadership and is destroying the Earth's satellites. You play as either Leila or Albatross, two operatives of Interpol's (in-game) Rolling Thunder task force. C jumps, B shoots. Shots cannot be aimed and you cannot shoot while in midair, though you can crouch with Down to shoot low. If you are in front of a doorway, hold Up to go in and hide; releasing Up makes you come back out.
