This time you are shooting terrorists at the air port in a Virtua Cop inspired on-rails shooter. This is the strongest game of the collection. The same level designs are repeated constantly and the game even forces you to play a tedious bonus mission which has you escort hostages to the helicopter. There are only 18 levels but they are a massive drag. It really helps with your little Easter egg hunt that when you get near a wall you will be able to see through it and observe if the room contains a hostage, enemy or maybe a useful crate of goodies. Since the camera is panned from what seems like a a 45 degree angle, not directly about your character not directly behind. Its also kinda cool that you can see through the walls in this game. You can save the game per level but if you don’t have all 3 of your lives from the get go I really wouldn’t bother as you’ll find yourself reloading the memory cart quite often.ĭie Hard does have some neat design features you can shoot environment panels which can fall on enemies and kill them just remember you’re also fragile to these obstacles to. You can of course cheat and use invincibility but then you pretty much ruin any point to playing the game. This was a common design for older games, especially in consoles prior to the Sony Playstation, but it would have been a lot more fun if youĭidn’t have to worry about a life handicap. You’re limited to a set number of lives and once all of those are expended it’s game over and right back to the start of the game. There are multiple weapons and grenade types to use but I found myself having to play this game incredibly cautiously. Its literally an Easter egg hunt find the red enemy on your radar and shoot it, wash rinse repeat. While this game is entertaining to begin with, it becomes a bit of a bore very quick. If you fail you have to restart the entire process again. Once all the terrorists have been taken care of you must run to one of the many lifts (elevators) to diffuse a bomb. In this game you take on terrorists in the Nakatome Building, each level has you explore a floor of the building and kill absolutely every terrorist in sight whilst also saving the odd hostage. Is this game really as good as we remember, or has it gone the way of the film franchise? Also this is Die Hard, one of the coolest film franchises ever, so why wouldn’t people want to play this? Well time has passed and the dust has now settled. We were all excited for this because 3D was becoming big as developers looked to leave the 2D style of game in favour of the blocky 3D models.
