Although it looks similar to dozens of other action games you have played before, the more you play the game, the more you realize that it has a lot of neat subtleties and detail that sets it apart. The action then begins with our hero about to prove, once again, that one beefy commando can dispose of enemies in approximately 1.5 minutes each. But Rambo, being human like the rest of us (ugh), fell into a trap and was captured.

The action takes place in a jungle deep within Afghanistans, where Rambo enlists the help of Afghan Freedom Fighters to lead him to the Russian base. In case you have missed the movie (lucky you), here is a brief plot: our beefy commando John Rambo is forced to leave his -err- meditation in a monastery in Southeast Asia (uh huh, sure) to rescue his handler Richard Crenna from the Russians.
Review 3: One of Taito's best games, Rambo III is a fun top-down action game that is very faithful to the testosterone-filled movie it was based on. Just don't take this serious and it can be fun. And if anyone can tell me why the enemies start spinning around once Rambo killed them - please let me know. But anyway - this game is really playable - at least for half an hour or so. I've never been able to see one of those Rambo-movies - to be honest I turned off my TV after 5 minutes or so since I just didn't see the point in it. I'm sure there's someone to rescue or anything like that, but I can't say I would have the slightest idea of the background-story behind this one. don't we all like to play one of those stupid little Action-Games that don't make much sense sometimes? Just run around and kill 'em - um.

If you liked the movie you will most definitely like the game. A big selection of useful items is also available so the game is a bit different than other games of similar type. You will have a lot of weapons at your disposal and not only that. The game may look dumb at the first look, but it’s far from that. Your mission is to free your commanding officer, but first you have to escape the prison camp yourself. Review 1: Based on the movie, this action game places you in role of the famous John Rambo.
