It is the year 2040, and things are out of control in the city of Mertropia. The Madison corporation is executing an ambitious scheme to take control of the world, while at the same time the Free Orbital movement is engaging in terrorist activities to suport its own cause. Someone has to care, and that someone is a legendary superhero who has existed since the dawn of recorded human history. He is "the ghost who walks" - the Phantom. Based on the syndicated animated TV series, itself inspired by the long-running Hearst Publications comic strip.

If Super Metroid on the SNES wasn't enough for you, then this may be the next game to try. Decent action, nice graphics, and excellent atmosphere.
