Future Cop: L.A.P.D. began life as a sequel in EA's hit-and-miss Strike series. But as the game's development progressed, it became apparent that the game really wasn't at all like the previous games in the series. Instead of cruising around various real-world locales in a helicopter and blowing up terrorists, Future Cop puts you in the seat of a mech that can transform into a hovercraft. You stomp (or hover) around eight different sections of Los Angeles, blowing up everything in your path. OK, there is one major malfunction with Future Cop, so let's just get it out of the way before moving ahead. When you die, you return to the very beginning of the level. Now, these levels aren't short in any way. So when you finally do get blown up, you'll have to trek through the level and destroy everything all over again. It really makes playing the game incredibly frustrating, occasionally to the point of turning it off in disgust. |
