I often need to remind myself that Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings are not recent movies.
It’s the same as being a kid in the 80s, which I was, and thinking The Seven Year Itch was a recent movie. Now, I had seen that movie on TV, because my parents liked it, and I thought it was funny, but never did I think of it as “recent”.
Still, you can’t tell me that Harry Potter movies didn’t happen in the last ten years.
I remember how much anticipation and agony people were complaining about waiting for it, that it couldn’t come soon enough.
I recently picked up a new game: RoboCop: rogue city… It hits all of the nostalgia about the original movie so far. Marching through an office building blowing off people’s hands and ripping machine guns off turrets and mowing down rooms full of enemies in all the gory, bloody detail… It gives me all the warm and fuzzy feelings.
The sound track is on point too.
Hard to believe it’s source material is from 1987.
The game almost looks as good as the movie did.
It’s not as polished as big name titles. People will talk and their mouth won’t move, some of the idle animations for NPCs is very repetitive and robotic… But the visuals… MMM.
If you liked the original, and want to partake in some thug killing mayhem as Murphey himself, I’d recommend it.

Holy hell, the last movie was released in 2011.

It’s actually only $9.99 right now with the Steam spring sale, normally $49.99…fuck. I might have to play it.
That game is a blast to play. Some bugs like you said but well worth the 20 bucks or whatever I spent on it.
I refuse to ever call Harry Potter a classic.
But it is a classic
