Some good finds - I'd seen other versions of the Target Renegade - the Amstrad CPC played very similarly to the Spectrum version I showed before, there was also a Commodore version, which had slightly better, less blocky graphics, but much more elementary gameplay (basically 'walk right and punch') so the zako dont have the same grab you and knee you repeatedly kind of domination like they did on the CPC and spectrum. Finally there was also a version made for the NES which just plain sucked and had very little resemblence to the other games. It did however have an interesting female sub-boss - a kind of gigantic hooker, twice the height of the player - she slams him to the ground and stamps on him with her spiky boots! I'm sure I have some screenshots somewhere, so I'll try and dig them out.
Yeah, I know way too much about this game, I've had this particular weird zako fixation for 20+ years :S I've played the pc remake a bit too, it was a fair effort, but the overall gameplay still wasnt right (walk right and punch, just like the commodore).
I really like the look of those zako, I just love bad girls in shiny black pvc! Hard to pick a favourite, but I'll go for the second from left, even after a points deduction for wearing pants :)
Two more nice finds, I had an amiga myself, but I've never seen either of those two games before - if that was just part 1, I'm looking forward to seeing what more you have in store :)
