GenesisOverview
Caliber Fifty, also written as Caliber .50, is a top-down shooter set during the Vietnam War (or, in the case of the Genesis port, twenty years after) in which the player must make their way through enemy-occupied territory solo.
The game was first launched in arcades by SETA Corporation, building from the success of similar themed military shooters from SNK (Ikari Warriors) and Capcom (Commando). Caliber Fifty offered 360 degree directional shooting, and included power-ups and grenades to increase the player's damage output. It was eventually ported to the Sega Genesis in 1991 by Mentrix, though this version was only released in North America.
