Lethal Enforcers: the Gun Fighters

Still sizzling from the arcades, the sequel to Lethal Enforcers is going to the home systems. Instead of the modern-day setting, you are transported back in time to the era of the gunfighters. In the Wild West, you are the shining pinnacle of justice. Unfortunately every madman and hired gun is out to blast your sorry butt into a grave. Look for this shooter to be blazing its way to home systems in the near future.

Overview

There are laws in this city, and you're about to deliver the message to the garbage ruining the streets. Grab a handful of Justice with Lethal Enforcers from Konami. A direct port of the hot arcade game, the Genesis version of Lethal Enforcers follows closely on the heels of the popular Sega CD version. A one- or twoi>layer title, you can play Lethal Enforcers with a three-button or dowivmoded six-button control pad, or the Konami Justifier, a copy of the arcade pistol-shaped controller designed specifically for home use. The game will be offered with a Justifier. You can play two-player games using a Justifier and a control pad, or purchase a second Justifier designed specifically for two-player games.

Lethal Enforcers has a simple objective. Get them before they get you. Each of the five rounds puts you (and a friend in two-player mode) up against hoodlums wielding guns, bombs and knives. Clear a round with a high enough hit ratio and you rise in rank. Do well in the practice rounds and you also rise in rank. Take a hit and you lose a life. The action is non-stop and perfect for gamers who think happiness is a day at the FBI training range.

Hot Hints:

1. Remember to reload. Point the Justifier off-screen and pull the trigger, or press Button C on your control pad. Get caught without bullets and you'll take a hit.
2. Though speed is important in the target practice rounds, so is your shot-to-hit ratio. It is better to shoot slower and not miss so much, than to blast away and hit nothing.
3. The Magnum is a much more effective weapon than the standard six-shooter. The shotgun is even better. You can hang on to either, once you have them, as long as you don't get hit.
4. Shoof whatever weapons the boss throws or fires before you attack the boss directly.
