Game
Gun.Smoke follows the Capcom theme of the 80s. It's really cool looking, but it's insanely difficult. Most people can make it through the first couple of stages without too much trouble. Comanche Village is tough, but doable. However, when you hit Death Mountain, all bets are off. The main problem comes from the gunslingers who always appear behind you and are very difficult to avoid. Only with extremely fast reflexes and an encyclopedic knowledge of each map will you ever beat the game.
Difficulty aside, the game is a lot of fun. You are a gun man who is trying to save the people of Hicksville from the evil gang of crooks, the Wingates. The game is a scrolling shoot 'em up, and as you kill off your opponents you receive money to buy better weapons, more ammo, and various other useful items. Each stage ends with a boss, and when you kill them you'll receive bonus reward money.
Music
Gun.Smoke's music is very nice. The sound is quite fitting to the Western theme, and quality is above average, like most Capcom games. Each stage has its own sound, and even each boss has their own theme, which was a nice touch.
Ripping
Ripping NES music is a very arduous process that is beyond the scope of this site.
