Out Zone

Still, while the other Toaplan games I covered may be known names and classics, titles like OutZone prove that even the obscurities deserve to have a light shined on them, and can even be better than you may expect, if you dive in and take up arms...

Out Zone is the sort of game that makes me love modern rereleases. A game stuck in arcades for decades, I had no expectations going in and found myself not wanting to put down my controller. Out Zone features fast-paced arcade action that players can jump right into but which will take a ton of practice to master. If you love classic games like Ikari Warriors or Commando, Out Zone is the game they wanted to be. Absolutely check it out.
