I really don't know how I feel about this game. It just feels kind of average. You'd think Predator would be a good game, especially as a side-scrolling platformer (which shines on the NES). It just feels unremarkable to me.

Maybe I'd like it a bit more if I knew the Predator series better, but I really don't. Stuff like references or the soundtrack being in the game in classic NES 8-bit form or other cool things like that would probably fly right over my head. Either way, I'm not scrambling to pick it up.


---[ Wikipedia Description ]---------------

Ready for the world's shittiest Wikipedia description of a game?

"Predator is a 1987 side-scrolling action game based on the film of the same title."

There ya go. But wait, we're not done yet. Now to check out the Gameplay description:

"The player starts off with no weapons and must collect them as the game progresses."

Holy crap, someone must have been up all night writing up this one.


---[ Series Information ]---------------

Squiggy Seven: First Impressions is a series where I blind review random NES games in an effort to learn more about the hidden classics on the system. I have gotten into retro collecting for the NES and I am on the hunt for those games I've never played that I'm missing out on.
