Stage three is where new enemy types are finally introduced.

The blatant insincerity in which it pretends to give you "freedom" is insulting. The bad part is this: no matter what order you free the prisoners in, the agent you're looking for is always the last. It's bigger than the first stage, sure, but there's only three areas with three prisoners, and you just travel through corridors fighting the same generic soldiers from before. Stage two displays a promising tone shift, presenting a prison where you must free an agent. Again, sounds thrilling, but just hide behind objects when the enemy fires, then pop out and destroy the helicopter in two hits. Afterwards, you're treated to a third-person "boss" fight with Rambo taking on a Hind D. I'm not exaggerating when I say the stage layout is literally shaped in the letter L lying on its back, emphasizing the laziness that went into creating this level. Except you can bypass all this by casually walking to the right for ten seconds, then move north, and face the wall obstacle. The first stage, for instance, has trucks with soldiers hopping out, bullets raining from watch towers, a foe or two tossing grenades from cover, and at the end, a giant wall spraying projectile fire. Rambo III is such a "mediocre" product in so many areas, that it goes beyond the realm of logic, and eventually lands into the refuge of laziness. However, play a couple stages into John Rambo's burly, romantic tale about lost love, and you just might feel offended. At a glance, Rambo III appears to fall into the "generic, yet playable" category, as it's simply offering an ordinary, top-down shooter experience. It's rare to find one that's not terrible, and when you do, it's average at best. Most usually play horribly, often look bizarre in their attempt to mimic styles and characters from the films, and more times than not, deviate from the source material to a ridiculous degree. It's really not much of a secret that video games based on movies during the 1980s and 1990s are embarrassments to both mediums.
