Video Game Reviews of RoboCop for Xbox
Customer Review: PC version review (same game)
Summary: 2 Stars
Amazon US doesn't list the PC version of this game. But it's pretty much exactly the same anyway.
First off, I hated how hard it was to stay alive in the first level. I went searching for codes on the Internet and surprisingly there is no codes, F.A.Q's, walk throughs, help guides ...nothing! (Ignore a code that says if you pause the game and type "best kept secret" it makes you immortal. It does not work at all)
I managed to find a site that had a download to run during the game that gives you max energy, power and ammo (invisibility). Found at [...] download that trainer thing. I give it 5 stars for working flawlessly.
Now that I couldn't be killed (except when I got squished in a thing) I was free to test out Robocop. I thought the game was pretty good. I played a level each day cause I'd have enough by the end of each level. I loved getting to level 3 and confronting ED-209. the graphics are decent 3D stuff. The quotes are amusing for a while, especially when you kill a good guy and Robo says, "sowwwwwwreeeee"
However, a few of the levels I really grew tired of. Playing out like a Duke Nukem/Doom kinda game, it kinda got annoying on a level down in a mine where you have to destroy all the boxes before a certain door will open. A map would really help navigation out instead of wondering around till you wing it. The levels are too big to become instantly memorable so that you know where everything is in future. Sometimes they're just confusing as hell or annoying.
CONTROLS
The controls aren't that bad. You use your mouse to aim and shoot. The right button can be changed; I used it to open doors. You use your arrow keys to move. And various other keys do different things; Like a zoom feature. Or press 1 on the num pad to make Robo twirl the gun around. "Can you do that, dad?"
GRAPHICS
Compared to similar sort of games like Duke Nukem, GoldenEye, Wolfenstien ect... this ones nice on the graphics in its own way, the 3D graphics look awesome on some stages, others there quite boring. Tho, some stages have had more time and effort put into them. In some stages sometimes you can shoot various things like lights, signs, cars and things, but on other stages there just a graphic. Ed-209 looks great, but there are some things added for the hell of it I think. I didn't understand what a giant rat in a sewer was about. It's like someone developed a rat on their computer and decided to put it in a game just to see what it would look like.
The videos look dodgy. I'm ok with it that they're just to tell the story. But they looked like they where made and then there was no room left to add them to the game after it was completed so they got compressed to hell to fit on the disc.
SOUND
A lot of people complained about the sound of this game. I didn't complain about much of it. I didn't take much notice of the music, the quotes where amusing for a while. But in the end I was just playing without the sound on. It doesn't help with anything you need to do.
LEVEL 9
Overall the game was OK until the last level. For starters, it took me a few minutes to work out what the hell I was supposed to be doing. It seems Robo freezes in spot while you wait for the bad robot to climb into his diplodocus neck, robotic machine. You cant skip this bit which sux for this reason; Once you've killed the robot by standing in the middle and shooting at the red things on the neck when it's shooting its lasers at you; the robot dies, it plays a video and then you have disarm the bomb going off in one minute. You walk to 8 different machine's and choose which code you think de-activates it. If you get 3 wrong, the whole lot restarts and you have to do them again. I thought I might find the correct codes out first, write them down and then restart the level and get them right. But nope! After waiting boringly for the robot to start up, I finally got back to the bit to disarm them, and what do you know, codes aren't the same! That really sux when you can't finish the game without LUCK on your side. There is no skill I could find to it other then a good memory, you just have to be lucky to get through it. Other wise the clock runs down and Robo says, "OH, S###" and the whole city blows up. Yet some cop is still alive to say "I wouldn't want you on my team, go back to the police academy" then you have to wait too long for that robot to start up again when you start the level again and for me, I have no patience, i want to get into these things instantly, not be made to wait.
OVERALL:
The game was fun to begin with. I thought it was cool. That was until I clocked it. And realised it has no replay value. Once you beat the game there is nothing to do. Why it lets you save it after you've beaten it is beyond me, cause all it does is lets you see the crappy 2-second ending of a TV report and then goes back to the main menu when you load your saved game. What's the point of that? You can go back and re-do missions you didn't get all the stuff for, and maybe when you do that and get them all 100% complete it unlocks something? But quite frankly I don't care if it does or doesn't, I'm done playing it. Once I beat it, I had no desire to play it again. It was cool while it lasted, but nothing to redeem it like other shoot em ups have had. Plus, something other then walking around shooting would've helped the game a bit. Like driving, boating, flying, something other then 9 levels of the same thing.
Something that I heard about this game was that they had ignored the movies part 2 and 3 and said this was like they hadn't existed. This was the follow up to the original movie. Honestly, I couldn't tell AT ALL. I didn't see anything that looked familiar at all apart from ED-209 and Anne Lewis of OCP. (so ignoring the fact she got killed in the sequel is reason enough to say that stuff is it?)
