    • Dead Man's Hand, a Western-themed FPS, have a stage called "Sunset Rider". A few of it's bosses are also expies to existing bosses from the arcade game, like Flat Iron being one for Chief Scalpem (a Native American who fights exclusively with flung knives in a valley, while running all over the place), "Numbers" to Simon Greedwell (accountant for the bad guys, greedy assholes who cares only for loot), "Big Guns" Grissom to Paco Loco (Dumb Muscle, uses predictable attack patterns, gets an explosive death) and the Twins to the Smith Brothers (outlaw brothers Dual Boss who fights in unison).
