This game is also available on Super Nintendo, Gameboy and Gamegear. RoboCop Versus The Terminator is a video game released for a number of platforms and is based on the RoboCop and Terminator franchises. There is also a prerelease beta of this game with several fun changes. And if that wasn´t enought you will also meet, as end of level guardians, Robocops old "friends" ED-209 and Cain in the form of RoboCop2. Robocop vs Terminator is a new spin on an old classic, featuring these two action heroes from the silver screen who are pitted against each other in a game. You will come up aginst heavily armed Terminators and Terminator endoskeletons, as well as horrid Terminator spiders and a variety of scary killer crafts. The ultimate goal is to destroy the Skynet CPU, therby saving mankind from the machines. While cleaning up the streets of a city like Detroit may be the easiest part of game, in reality you only need to ask any Cincinnati drug crime lawyer how tough it is to fight drug and violent crime in any big city.īut in between you visit the Delta City Construction yards, the Toxic farms, the OCP offices, the UN complex, the Terminator outpost and the underground bunker.There are also a couple off hidden levels to find. You start off in the streets of old Detroit, cleaning away all the gun-toting punks who populate the streets, but by the end of the game you´re taking on the Terminators on their own territory. Slowdown or not, you'll agree that this is one of the most fun action games available for the Sega console.
Occasionally, when the action is at its most intense, the ammunition and characters experience a little slowdown, but it doesn't happen that often, and when it does, it is very brief. Beginners and veterans alike will appreciate the gradual skill level progression. Tons of bullets fly your way throughout the game, but there are plenty of continues and a long health meter to keep you going. The Terminator is challenging, but you'll make it through the first couple of levels without too much trouble.
Each of the weapons make distinctive sounds, and the windows breaking and the clanging of metal (such as when RoboCop jumps onto a ladder) sound very realistic. The levels are dark but not to the point where the graphics get muddy, and the backgrounds, though a little sparse at times, are fairly well drawn without being distracting. The characters in this game are realistically portrayed and will please fans of both film franchises. He practically sprints up ladders, and he moves exactly where your thumbs command. Unlike the RoboCop in RoboCop 3, which moves with all the grace of a bowlegged buffalo on crutches, this RoboCop is quick and smooth. The action is more brutal than John Woo's wildest dreams, and the selection of killer weapons would impress even the most jaded of fascist dictators.
While this type of mayhem and carnage may not be to everyone's liking, action fans would gladly trade their entire Dirty Harry video collection for this bloody good cartridge. When you blow away an enemy, he rips apart and his blood gushes like water, and running around blowing away Terminators and such is just about all you do. the Terminator is 100 percent unapologetically violent. Virgin sure did a great job of making the comic book into a game and how cool would it be to have a Robocop vs Terminator movie.As all Robocop fans will know, the plot of this game is based on the Dark Horse comics of the same name wherein a gang of terminators gets sent from the future to cause trouble in Old Detroit. I hope one day this is reprogrammed for the PC. The Sega Genesis version was the best as the Super-Nintendo had all the blood cut out of it. And you needed them as you were under constant assault from all directions. But with the help of scientists he was able to become Robocop. One of the coolest features of the game were the power-ups that modified Robocop's armour or game him massive new weapons. Robocop Versus The Terminator is a legendary game about a policeman who was killed by bandits. But not before taking on zillions of T-800s and T-1000s first. In order to stop the technology (and even himself ever existing) Robocop must travel to the future and defeat Skynet. The premise of the game came from the Dark Horse comics of the same name in which Robocop's technology is linked to Cyberdyne. And I played it with the infinite lives cheat too and it still took hours and hours. But it was absolutely impossible to finish. This game was probably one of the most violent and bloody I have ever played.
