See the rest of the guide for more information. The Japanese version also features a secret underground tunnel in the fourth stage, however this tunnel was removed when the NES version was released. The NES version sports the name Rush'n Attack in the US and in Europe.

Xbox Live Arcade

Screen
Cover

Ported by Digital Eclipse software and released for download on the Xbox Live Arcade in 2007. Just as before, the American version is called Rush'n Attack, and the Japanese version is called Green Beret, however the European version was given the Rush'n Attack name, possibly due to more players being familiar with that name from the NES version. The game can be played with the original graphics unaltered, or in an enhanced mode where the background graphics are presented as 3D models, and the foreground sprites are heavily filtered to give them a higher resolution look.
