RoboCop: Rogue City (2023 Video Game)
6/10
Looks like a PS3 game at PS5 Prices
10 December 2023
I don't know what the Dev back story is on this game. Was it developed for the 360 and PS3 and legal problems ensued holding up its release? Were they adamant about using Peter Weller and his prior commitments held him up till the 2020s? I have no clue but I know this game should never have been released for anything higher than $20 bucks. I enjoyed the shooting the crap out of thugs parts but grabbing biker punks off of their bikes and flinging them into another biker is a gas. Even more glorious is punching some blue-haired, Faux punk rocker with your metal paw in his snarling face and watch it become an explosion, then a flying, puddle of crimson. I have no love for the modern punk rocker they're jokes like Green Day. Green Day is to Punk Rock like The Bay City Rollers were Rock 'n' Roll. You kiddies can Google them. Besides fighting punks you fight Robots and some BIG ROBOTS. Ontop of that you get to investigate kind like using your Bat-Vision...or kind of like it and you analyze PCs and Work computers and it can be fun but it's done with graphics that could've been done on smart-phones 5 yrs ago. You can't just walk in a building like on PS4s + PS5s it has to cut seemingly to load the next section which modern systems do seamlessly and to top it all off they charge the same as any A title. Wait till it's on your PSPlus or Game Pass then you won't be disappointed unless you're a Graphics snob. Then you just have the sweet, cheesy dialogue of Murphy's partner Officer Lewis (Nancy Allen in the original film) who looks at Murphy's Helmut + Dark Visor and says, "Oh No, I know that look!" I don't know if that was meant to be funny or an unintentional guffaw but it's there. Enjoy.
