Will's Game of the Week: Shatterhand

This is a classic side-scrolling beat em up that has escaped us somehow over the years. At VGXPO we finally got our hands on a copy from one of the dealers, in a true deal: $2. Why 2 bucks? Because the cover of the game has been peeled off leaving the white backing, but the game itself is in excellent working condition! A winner is you!

The game turns on and then it begins, you are a man in walking from left to right punching the bejesus out of everything that moves. I absolutely love this game already...

Area A starts out and all I can think of is the Armadillo Tank song from their cd we bought after we saw them live down in Philadelphia for the VGXPO.

To my surprise there are unlimited continues and so far my favorite stage is Area C. Area D is the hardest so far with the stupid helicopter bombs, and the rising platform from hell which is my current downfall.
