Story:Desert Strike: Return to the Gulf, commonly known as Desert Strike, is a shoot 'em up video game released by Electronic Arts (EA) in February 1992 for Sega's Mega Drive. The game was later released on several other formats such as the SNES, including a much upgraded version for the Amiga home computer. The game was inspired by the Gulf War and depicts a conflict between an insane Middle Eastern dictator, General Kilbaba, and the United States. The player controls a lone Apache helicopter and attempts to destroy enemy weapons and installations, rescue hostages and capture enemy personnel, while managing supplies of fuel and ammunition.Show more

"Desert" and "Jungle" Strike were two games I had as a collection on a CD-ROM back in the mid-'90s and they were quite novel for the fact that you just flew a helicopter in an isometric view, going from mission to mission in something of a campaign-structure, as far as I can remember. - I think it was somewhat challenging, but at least pretty fun and varied seeing what would happen next with every mission.
I knew about 'Urban Strike', but did not know "Soviet" and "Nuclear", which also look a bit different, existed. - Regardless, I think they should all be on GOG because they were quite solid old games, from a time when EA was rather known as Electronic Arts and Gremlin Interactive was still around. I honestly expected they would already be on here, but perhaps EA is still the factor as to whether or not they will appear on GOG. - I hope they will!
I remember renting these games for my dad's hand-me-down Sega Genesis so many times. We loved military chopper games back then. I was so in awe by the graphics and the "realistic" cutscenes. The game controlled relatively fluidly as well, I felt like I was really piloting an apache (as if I had any idea). I had just never been exposed to something so grounded in current affairs. This is a classic game worth preserving.
