Zeus presents Robocop 3 (un-emulated) for the Amiga A500, a true classic from the golden era of amiga gaming which must not be forgotten alongside the software house and all programmers that were involved in making this game.
Year of release: 1992
Here we have the third installment of the Robocop trilogy and Ocean made a huge change in direction with this one introducing polygon 3D graphics and i must say for someone who's was never a fan of early 1990 polygon games,...this looks fantastic.
Ocean have always had my respect going back to their early 8-bit games, i so wish they had done Street Fighter 1 instead of those useless pricks at US. GOLD / Tiretex.
The moment the games starts to load with the stylish brand name logo's, you know it's gonna be good.
The first level starts with Robo behind the wheel where he must destroy the enemies van before heading off to the warehouse, pressing F1-F8 results in many different camera views...F6 being Robovision where everything looks more linear (gaps between the resolution lines), the normal view is the Test Drive view, now this is how "Test Drive III - The Passion" should have looked like unlike the awful end result pc users were greeted with and thankfully us Amiga owners never saw the light of.
Level 2 is the warehouse where you must shoot down the baddies whilst avoid shooting the hostages,...all in 3D it looks very cool but tricky to move round corners.
In a later level you also fly around in 3D a lot like a fighter simulator (41:24),...sadly i didn't last very long. You also have a couple of stages where you must fight one-on-one with a warrior which even though i knew what i needed to do, i had no fucking idea how to do it, so as you can see i showed a portion of the stage before i level skipped to the next.
A bonus level is also present (27:00) where you must shoot down all the spotlights thus revealing the baddies by their cars and shoot them all,...pretty cool.
This game is very beautiful and oozing professionalism throughout, the music is haunting and dark but so is the game, there are even movie looking sequences between the levels, but sadly this does not mean it's a real joy to play, in fact i did find it quite boring half way through and most amiga fans will not like this game at all, it won't be a game i can see coming back to in the near future unlike say Chaos Engine, Hybris or even Target Renegade on the speccy, it just doesn't have the "come back and play factor", but as said it's a beautiful looking game,...Ironic really considering Robocop 3 film was the worst of the trilogy.
Level skip and infinite energy trainer were used so i could upload virtually the whole game for your viewing pleasure.

Hope all you amiga fans enjoy this upload.
Please note: NONE of my game uploads are emulated in any way whatsoever, they are 100% original recordings by myself taken directly from the original hardware the game was intended for, that way you know you're watching the real thing.
I will also always state weather i am using any cheats in the game, if not mentioned then i am not using any.
