Lethal Weapon

PC
Genre:  Arcade    |     Year: 1992    |     Publisher: Ocean Software Ltd.     |     Developer: Ocean Software Ltd.
Game Review (written by Animegx) Added on: 11/07/2009
Even though lethal weapon is a 1992 game I still find it fun to play. It is great that the developers let you play as Riggs or Murtaugh within the game.
The two characters are the same, but with two differences which makes it easier for us to choose to play as. Since Riggs as fast shooting, but low jump while Murtaugh has a slow shoot rate, but high jump, you can easily see which is best for the missions you are given.
Altogether there are five missions, but to reach the 5th mission you have complete the first four which makes sense and gets people to play the game more.
Gives us a nice challenge in an old style shooting game which is still played today in updated versions and graphics.
People may think that only five missions in the game are boring and short, but each mission is long and is close to the film which the characters came from. If you have seen the film you will easily know what each mission will be about after the next, but this still gives us a challenge as how to complete the mission as the game version is a lot harder which again makes us play the game for longer and make it last.
I find the terrorist mission the hardest out of the four missions you have to do before the final missions where

you have to go after Jack Travis which most people, if they have seen the film(s) will know is the main villain in lethal weapon three.
The terrorist mission even though it is not the final mission I find the most annoying out of all the missions due to you have to stop them from blowing the entire city up.
The game has some cons though which viewers or players of the game find disappointing such as the way you kill your enemies. Firstly in most of the missions going up and punching your enemy was a lot easier and faster to kill them with then to shoot them with which makes the game lose its magic touch a bit due to in real life a gun would be a lot easier and faster then running up to your enemy and punching them.
Try it to spend few hours in rainy day.

Lackluster platform game based on the movie of the same name. Technically it is very good, with smooth scrolling and nice sprites, both of which are rarely seen on PC games back then. But other than that, it's just another standard jump'n run without anything special.
