Namco Classic Rocks again!

Another sequel to the ever-cool Time Crisis, In each Time Crisis game, there is a mortal threat to the world. The V.S.S.E, a covert "problem-solving" organization, must send its highly-skilled agents in to clear the way. The first Time Crisis had three stages with four screens each. The second and third installment has three stages each with three screens. The fourth installment adds a prologue with the three stages each with three screens. In the third and fourth installments, supporters from various organizations come in to assist the V.S.S.E. agents either in their mission, or jump in to protect their covert "problem-solving" reputation.

this new TC has much more to offer than the last one, new features as "bug killing", quite annoying actually, and my favorite, the machine-gun segment. Between the 3 rounds, the machine-gun segment comes twice, you shot everything in your way,without running out of ammo, and yes you don't have 2 reload your gun, and the third new feature is 3 screen battle, where you have to defend yourself form front, and both left and right side, can be pretty challenging sometimes. Beside the new things, the game has also those oldies we love it for!
