About Desert Gunner

The rules of engagement are simple; If they are armed: OPEN FIRE. Unleash a deadly array of weapons from a convoy of the creme of the modern American military. This time don't worry about running out of ammo, instead worry about saving your own skin! The cities and towns around you hide a fierce and fanatical enemy. Come face to face with the deadliest of traps; Improvised explosives! At anytime civilian vehicles around you can become vehement bombers, Roadside rubble hiding enough explosives to mangle and destroy most modern machines. When you aren't directly engaging leftover cold war tanks and APCs, armed forces with RPG's dive out to meet you. The AK-47 remains a staple and releases a constant barrage of fire from all sides. Switch freely between vehicles and their many mounted weapons and engage the enemy with true arcade-turret style gameplay. 360 degrees to experience a vision of battle, of dire conflict as it plays out in the digital desert. The most modern weapons are only as good as the gunner who operates them, your wide variety of weapons and armor remain vulnerable to attack.

A moments hesitation; a folded flag.

There are two constants in the world: how much Shinobi 3 rocks and how much Desert Gunner sucks. I propose that we shall make use of international star system where a single star represents Shinobi 3 divided by Desert Gunner. I rate this game as no stars. It's worse than itself. Seriously, it's an old shovelware. If you thought that Delta Force: Task Force Dagger was a sellout, just wait until you see. Generic. Bland. Cheap. Glitchy, sorta. Just use turrets, feel no feedback, no fun, shoot at targets. No music. Sound volume all over a place. Graphics sucked for 2006, when it came out. Barely any control or much to do aside from aim and shooting, it's not like you can knock missiles out of air. Personally, I got only to level 6. Then convoy made a temporary stop and the tank in the rear ended up ramming vehicle in front until the tank itself blew up. I quit right there. Now I shall go and cry over me, being an idiot who brought some shovelware games on Steam at whatever year it was.

Desert Gunner is a poorly designed shooting game. Even the old BeachHead 2000 is more playable than it. Don't waste any energy on this game. The only thing you should do is press Ctrl X and see the scenery along the road. Pros: +Easy controls. +Official cheat codes. +Ground vehicle and building models are realistic. Cons: -The title music is not looped. It will stop playing forever after tens of seconds. -Although game manual said WSAD are alternative keys, but they are not functional. Arrow keys are the only way to switch vehicles. -The weapon chart is not introduce all weapons in the game. -There is no Old Migs in the game. It was labeled as Sukhoi Su-27 in the weapon chart. But in fact, it's not a Su-27. Everyone knows this is a Su-34. -Aircraft models are very crude. -Because your convoy is random in the every mission, sometimes you will get a weak convoy without anti-armor capacity. -Generally speaking, the first mission of a shooting game should be a training level. So player can familiarize the game. However, every mission of Desert Gunner is very hard. Enemies will come from everywhere. You have no time to check all directions before something blow you out. It will …
