It somewhat looks like the punisher but not it.

Doesn't just look like it, it is. Darn hard though. And I thought XYbots was hard, well I got a different opinion when I tried that game. Maybe I just didn't know how to play it though.

Well, this view reminded me of some other game from the past.
Line Of Fire on the C64, whoever remembers it. :)

I think the 3D view is of quite the same style like this one, but the C64 isn't as detailed as the Amiga version.

Line of Fire was my arcade favourite!:thumbs_up But it was in first person while this one seems to be in third person (If we control the guy seen in the screenshot)

Hey, this one is also available for the Amiga!!
I just found it and made a screenshot :)
Look here! The similarity is "pretty" obvious ;)

@Burseg: what's the difference between first-person and third-person? Well I know what's the difference in grammar, but not in computer games ;)

P.S. GEE, the graphics are unacceptably sloppy for an Amiga game! :mad

Format: 640x480

Argh it's not emulated by Mame! Amiga version is ok, but it's still a slightly degraded version of the Arcade version. The Amiga version has a cheat mode that enables you to move freely, I forgot how it worked but the game plays pretty much like a modern fps that way.
