RoboCop: Rogue Cityis a first-person shooter set between the second and thirdRoboCopmovies.
If you checked out towards the end of that description…well, I cant blame you.
Of course,Rogue Cityisnt a Triple-A game.
Many reviews of the game are already knocking the title for those shortcomings, and I can understand why.
Theyre often jarring, and theyre objectively issues from a purely technical perspective.
Just because developer Teyon didnt aspire to make a Triple-A game doesnt mean that they didnt have other ambitions.
Enemies limbs explode with all the fury and splatter of an expertly implemented Verhoeven squib.
Visually, this entire game is just one big Easter egg that is just waiting to be opened.
The same goes for the games upgrade options.
Mind you,Rouge Citys flaws arent limited to its technical issues.
Most notably, the games story is a bit of a disappointment.
Those games often feel like they couldnt have been made by any other studio.
Rogue Cityis nowhere near the Triple-A experience that those games are, but it was never going to be.
Well, Teyon treated that its for the fans mentality as a challenge rather than as a shield.
Call it a mid-2000s action game, butRogue Cityisnt just another mid-2000s action game.
