Revolution X is a 1994 mounted light gun game from Midway Games. In it, you play a revolutionary who fights against a military faction known as New Order Nation (NON) who have criminalized all things fun and are arresting anyone between the ages of 13 and 30. You set out to stop them and all their heinous actions against the youth with your assault rifle and explosive CD launcher. Yeah, it's just that kinda game.

For a side-scrolling shooter, the game was pretty impressive, using live action technology and camera zoom-ins and outs to create a rather frantic experience. The game was, of course, also notable for its use of Aerosmith pretty much just as a marketing vehicle for the band (and oddly, it worked; many people who never heard of Aerosmith before became fans of them due to their exposure to the game). While Revolution X was very successful at the arcades, many game magazines and review sites put it as one of the Worst Games Ever on their lists. Though this is probably due to the ridiculous premise and live-action graphics more than to actual gameplay, which isn't as bad as they make it out to be (being a Spiritual Successor to Terminator 2 the Arcade Game, YMMV, of course). It may also be due to its horrible ports to Genesis and Super Nintendo. The PC, Sega Saturn and Play Station ports fare slightly better, probably due to the fact that they had more tech power behind them.
