This thread has been linked to the game 'Starsky & Hutch'.
Rented it last night.
It's alright, very samey but amusing for 2 player rental action.
1 drives, the other shoots at the car/power-ups.
The end.
Viewer rating figures per level/episode, do skids to increase Wow! factor and keep ratings high. Higher the ratings, you unlock stuff (didnt bother to find out what though).
Has the original Starsky & Hutch theme tune and Antonio Fargas still playing Huggy Bear 30 years after the show ended.
Graphics are ok, some jaggies.
Level starts, you follow target car shooting at it.
Destroy car before end of level/you run out of viewer rating points.
Repeat.
*shrugs*
It's nothing fantastic but alright for an evening's rental

I think he has lesions rather than legions.

Probably, although his legions are mostly dead or falling apart or so athritic they can't move or forever snoring. There's still one lively one, but she's blind and has no limbs.

when I saw it advertised on this site, I didn't hold out much hope for it being any good. a shame really.
perhaps they could do a wicked 'bullitt' game

I reckon Antonio Fargas goes home and recites entire episodes of Starsky & Hutch on his own, until he falls asleep with his legions of skank-hos.
Ever heard of a game called Crazy Taxi??? There wasn't much to that but it was incredible. There are games out there in things called "arcades" which don't need to have 14 hour plots and multiple save points to be enjoyable. This would seem to be one of those.
Besides, light gun games are thin on the ground, don't knock 'em when they arrive.

No need for whoops, that's the thing with your reviews, short sharp to the point and usually right.
Don't worry, have more important things to spend my money on :)

Er...whoops?
Ever play Die Hard Trilogy on the PS1? It's like the driving bits in that.
It may do something else on later levels, I just couldn't be arsed to find out.
Rental first, definitely

Cheers Goaty, that's just put me right off.
Meh, there're still boring car bits in Enter The Matrix, I think.
Apart from the chasing car and shooting bit you mean.
