RoboCop 3

Peter Weller is...the minute man


Genre: action - gun

Publisher: Flying Edge

Year: 1993

System: Genesis


Gameplay Score: 2

Gameplay Notes:

Stupidly hard. Nearly impossible to avoid enemy fire. Walk like a tank which I guess is authentic to the movie and character You run out of ammo quickly and then you're a sitting duck An enemy that looks like R2D2 is too low to hit and it shoots homing missiles at you. Discovered that a 3 way gun powerup allowed me to kill it. Moves a bit slower than SNES version.


Level Design Score: 0

Level Design Notes:

Robocop curse - walk right. Slowly Enemies basically can't be avoided and they shoot before you see them. Just walk forward a couple steps, shoot a perp, then walk some more. Can't get to the end of the first level because of the . Two bikers come along who can't be killed and the bikes plow thru you dealing damage every frame which kills you. Even if you make it past there isn't enough time to complete a level.


Theme Score: 4

Theme Notes:

Robot make things go boom


Art Style Score: 2

Art Style Notes:

Decent graphics Nice big sprites Much darker and grainier than the SNES version


Audio Score: 1

Audio Notes:

Altogether bad sound Music is just a few chirps. Not much of a composition. Sounds worse than SNES version


Overall Score: 30

Review ID: 1204
