Ikari Warriors II: Victory Road

"Ikari Warriors II" is just as badly playable as its predecessor with stiff controls being the biggest problem. The levels are just much shorter, which is a big plus in this case. Graphics are a mixed bag. Looks ok on still screenshots and the sprites are bigger than before, but the sprites are not well animated and the color scheme of the background graphics is strangely monotonous. The story wins a 'plain stupid' award with the heroes being transported into the far future to rescue Earth from aliens. Well, doesn't matter anyway.

When we last saw Paul and Vince, they had saved the Colonel and were about to head for home in a special plane given to them by the General. But then, while in flight over the ocean, the sky suddenly blackens - the ocean begins to churn - and the plane goes spinning! A booming voice fills the cockpit: "Hear me, Warriors! Zang Zip, the War Dog, has enslaved the people of Earth. Only you can save us from his grip of evil!" Caught in a time warp, hurled thousands of years into the future, Paul and Vince know they have no choice but to meet this impossible challenge head-on. After all, they are professionals... they are the Ikari Warriors!
