Horrible games: Operation Secret Storm

Thursday, February 24, 2011

What if President George H. W. Bush had launched a secret attack on Iraq during the Gulf War...by going in and sorting the whole business out with his own two fists? Then Operation Secret Storm would have some basis in reality.

Your eye is probably drawn to the evil frowny face on Saddam Hussein's hat. This signifies just what sort of evil leader the brave commando-president must overcome. After that you probably picked up on the fact that this is yet another gem from Color Dream's vault of unlicensed nightmares. 

This game is ridiculously hard to come by, largely because the absurd premise drove up demand for it. I mean, George H. W. Bush isn't exactly the first president that comes to mind when you think relentless action hero. But Operation Secret Storm depends on President Bush and his "thousand points of light" to save the day.

Like the last Color Dreams game we looked at (Secret Scout and the Temple of Demise), Operation Secret Storm dishes out uncomfortable helpings of racism along with just plain broken game design.

Check out the gameplay after the jump.

I got to the bird fight, and I just couldn't stomach any more.

Double Dragon physics with Bible Adventures graphics and gameplay. Yeah...a lot of memories with this gem. There's actually a glitch in northern Kuwait. Where if you keep hopping to the left of the screen, the game gives you precious moments of your life back.

It looks like it has similar gameplay to Secret Scout. I haven't played this one, though maybe I should...

Also like to say that as a self-proclaimed connoisseur or horrible games, I love this feature.

Nice. I love how the music just jumps around when different enemies appear on screen. They didn't even try to smooth it all out.

George HW Bush was a Navy pilot and the Director of the CIA. He's seen his share of action.
