-
- A few tips and a few personal comments, contributed by Kevin Gorasia.
-
-
- When you're going down to the end of the map at high speed and the
- helicopter is right in your path quickly press right and when you're
- near the middle of the helicopter press left you will go back to the
- path you were originaly on, and even better the enemy heli will not
- fire any missiles at you because it will be too busy turning round
- to get an aim. While it is turning round you will be zooming past
- it and will be at least a mile away before it gets round to firing.
-
- Also it seems that your Apache is more manouverable then the enemy
- apaches. I don't know why, but they just are.
-
- To dodge missiles when you're approaching an enemy heli approach in
- a zig-zag pattern which is done by pressing left & right continousely
- and at the same time when you're close enough fire a couple of Hydras
- that will destroy the heli to smitherines.
-
- Also I do not know why Jungle Strike was rated so poor (64%). In a
- review it said that the heli could not me manuvered properly, but
- when I played it (remember I am a complete novice). I managed to
- do quite a lot of fancy manouveres. One of which is described above.
-
- Also the FMV is bad, but now that bad. I mean Desert Strike didn't
- have any FMV and so it means that it is Gremlins first try to
- produce with FMV (Full-Motion-Video) and I think they have done
- quite well. Don't get me wrong there has been better FMV done in a
- few games. The reviewer didn't rate the game by the companies own
- standards, but by the standards set by others. (Top viedo-Game
- publishers). To finish off Gremlin should get at least some Credit.
- I wouldn't of written whis review and a few tips if I thought that
- it didn't deserve it, by the way I would of felt much better if
- Jungle Strike when it was reviewed scored at least 75%+.
