4.0 out of 5 stars Cartoony Wild West fun!!
This is a very fun game...provided the game's computer does not cheat. However, at certain points in the game, no matter a good a player thinks he or she is, the computer takes a cheap shot. Other than that, this game is worth playing. I used to play the coin-op version at a local pizza place and now that I have it for the SNES, I can play it for free anytime I want...

4.0 out of 5 stars Cartoony Wild West fun!!, June 25, 2009
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sunset Riders (Video Game)
This is a very fun game...provided the game's computer does not cheat. However, at certain points in the game, no matter a good a player thinks he or she is, the computer takes a cheap shot. Other than that, this game is worth playing. I used to play the coin-op version at a local pizza place and now that I have it for the SNES, I can play it for free anytime I want. There are four gunslinging studs in this game: Steve, Billy, Bob, and Cormano. Steve and Billy are pistoleers. Bob and Cormano are rifle/shotgun toters. The best character to use is Bob. He is pretty quick with pump-action rifle(s). His rifle shot is more accurate than Cormano's, but if you are looking for power, Cormano's shotguns are a little more powerful than Bob's rifles. If speed is your game, then Billy or Steve are the best....but you have to be a crack shot with the pistoleers or you can get killed quite easily. 4/5 because the computer cheats, otherwise a lot of fun! Definitely worth playing!

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent retro SNES game, July 24, 2003
This review is from: Sunset Riders (Video Game)
The first time I played this game was at an arcade when I was 7. The place was set up so all the machines had unlimited continues, which was really nice. Anyways, 3 of my friends and I literally spent hours just playing Sunset Riders through again and again. It's that fun.

The thing you have to understand about this game is that it's a simple side-scrolling action game, like maybe TMNT, but it doesn't try to be anything more! It's just simple, fun, classic gaming. Don't go in expecting it on the caliber of Zelda or Final Fantasy. But it's just as fun, or to me because I have the memmories to associate it with, it's more fun! And it's cheap too. So just get it.

5.0 out of 5 stars retro, May 4, 2010
= Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sunset Riders (Video Game)
i had this game when it first came out and i loved it since then.
the game is pretty sort, but difficult.then i lost it one day and i didnt play it agian for about 6 years. i bought the game from amazon and resived it three days later and i still love this game. there is a pick from four different charectors two are single power shots and the other two are spread shot. the power ups in the game make it a bit easier but even the best will die a hand full of times. the computer does cheat but most dont mind because the game is just simply to much fun. It a game that one can play over and over and not get sick of it like most newer games.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nintendo Hard, March 19, 2010
= Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sunset Riders (Video Game)
This game is a no holds bard it's hard, but than again most early Nintendo games were. This game good it's interesting the arcade game this is based on was made the same hear a similar arcade game was made C.O.W.boys of Moo Mesa. Personally I would rather play C.O.W.boys of Moo Mesa, but I'm sure the rights or something were an issue if not the graphics. None the less this is a good game really hard and at sometimes kind of unoriginal in it's design or just blah! All and all 4 stars it's a fun game!

2.0 out of 5 stars Pretty dumb, you could skip this one, November 7, 2002
This review is from: Sunset Riders (Video Game)
Sunset Riders is just like any of the TMNT (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtls) games except this one has cowboys and it's set in the old wild wild west.

You play as 4 different sherriffs (Bob, Billy, Steve? and Cormano) and your objective is to take down the most evil and dangerous men in the wild wild west.

O.k. this is what makes this game stupid, the enemy to hero ratio is completely off. There are always a lot more enemies than heroes on the screen for the most part and that makes this easy game a little confusing and a little too challenging seeing as how if you get hit like once or twice, you die and when a screen full of bad guys shoots 8 bullets in all different directions, it's kind of hard to didge.

Turtles in Time is a much better 2 player game but if you're looking for a slight change of pace, here's your chance with this cowboy shoot em up.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the Genesis version., November 16, 2003
By 
This review is from: Sunset Riders (Video Game)
To start off their are two versions of this game, the SNES version and the Genesis version.
This game looks terrible in comparison with the Genesis version,
less colors, terrible sprites and ugly sounding music.
The only plus would probably be that every boss has their own little voice intro but that really isn't important.
The snes version is so much harder, you die in about 4 or 5 shots, period. In the genesis version you have continues and more bonus games. One downfall is that you can only choose between two characters on the gens version, but i think that they are the best characters of the four.

Skip the SNES version and go straight for the Gens game.

Best of luck too you.
