Elevator Action II 1995 Taito
1995
Elevator Action II (c) 1995 Taito.
Terrorists are on the loose and it is up to a special counter-terrorism squad to infiltrate their strongholds to snag information and terminate them before it's too late. Features excellent graphics and sound, 3 selectable characters, an expanded arsenal of weapons and an excellent challenge. Definitely improved over the last game and highly recommended for 'Rolling Thunder' fans!
