Twin Strike Operation Thunder on Wii

Twin Strike Operation Thunder Screen Shots

Twin Strike Operation Thunder is a Shooting game available on the Wii.

Twin Strike Operation Thunder is a Shooting game. Shooting games present a world in which the character must shoot their way out of dangerous situations. They provide the player with an array of weapons tailored to specific tasks. This unavoidably involves a combination of fisticuffs and gun based fighting that dictates the violent nature of these experiences. Beneath this harsh exterior though is often an intricate tactile game - and this is usually what drives the player.

Returning Gamer review Mon, 19 Jan 2009

Anyone that grew up in Suburbia, especially around the Midlands, will remember Airwolf with romantic feelings of nostalgia, even though it wasn't actually that good. It was marginally better than Blue Thunder though - or was it? Having said that, it planted something in our heads that tells us helicopter games are cool. Not only that, it also told us that mediocrity is cool. I was a bit of wary of twin strike as I had never heard of it, no whispers or gossip, not a muttering, and I soon found out why. So what would I make of this one player title.

You get the feeling you are smack bang in the middle of budget land when a game fires up without any intro sequence. I believe the Wii term is 'shovelware'. But hark I hear you say, intro sequences aren't everything, and some shovelware is good - on to the game. Let me tell you what the game is about: 'You control a military helicopter - and you perform missions'. The missions take place in campaign mode, of which there is around 20, lasting 5-10 minutes, and there is also an arcade mode and some quite handy training to get you going. Arcade mode is similar to campaign, but with various smaller scale tasks to perform. For campaign mode you choose an accompanying copter i.e. one that picks people up. A few can be unlocked on the way and they are all passable to look at, it's easy to switch between them during the game also.
