Description of Platoon

Another faithful coin-op conversion by Quicksilver that was published by Data East, Platoon is a side-scrolling action game based on the hit movie of the same name. Nothing fancy here: shoot everything in sight, and find power-ups and ammos along the way.

A fun game that's starting to show its age, especially when compared with newer releases such as Guerilla War. Good for nostalgia only.

Fun game with good music. One of the few movie licensed games that wasn't shovelware. I remember I often got lost in first jungle level.
