Game Review & Impressions
---------------------------------------------------
If you're watching this video and thought, "This game seems oddly reminiscent of Rolling Thunder", you'd be absolutely right; this is virtually identical to Namco's arcade classic, albeit fleshed out with a few additional ideas for the home console market.

Assuming the role of a secret agent, you're tasked with busting a major drug cartel and stopping the export of illegal narcotics to other countries. In practice, this involves shooting a lot of generic military goons with your trusty pistol (or SMG, once you find some ammo) and rescuing hostages held captive behind the many doors secreted in the background of each level.

For something that's an unashamed knock-off, it turns out that Code Name: Viper is actually a decent game. It's brutally tough in places, but if you enjoyed Rolling Thunder, this isn't bad at all.
