The Warriors, You should come out and play this, Another great Rockstar game.
This isn't some rip-off movie licensed cack that some developers release, the intro is a word for word scene for scene remake of the movie's intro using the in-game engine and the classic Warriors theme music and this level of detail continues throughout the game, The first half of the game starts before the events of the movie showing how the members of the warriors met and how they came to be known by the other gangs etc this adds to the story greatly, the second half follows the movie with cut scenes word for word scene for scene.
Graphically it's good but it wont win awards for the best ever looking game, all the characters are recognisable (if you have seen the movie) and the environments are good also the voice acting is great, although if you don’t like foul language don’t get this, the game Uses Dolby Surround it's a shame that a Dolby Digital 5.1 or a DTS soundtrack wasn't used as in Gta vice city as I feel the soundtrack and other audio in the game deserved it.
Game play is great, it's mission based with the first half of the game trying to build up you rep to get invited to the big Meeting which is where the plot of the movie starts, Missions for the first half vary from tagging comps to trashing rival gangs businesses, there are bonus missions that when completed give items and power ups such as steel toed shoes for more powerful kicks or the ability to use the homeless to fight for you if your out numbered by to many rival gang members and it's the many fights that you have that makes the game shine, fights range from one or two people to up to 20 in a group and not just rival gang members, police and the general public can get involved also, punches kicks and grapples feel like they really connect and the combo system is simple and easy to use, weapons are found around the environments and include bricks, bottles and planks of wood, as the game progresses knives and baseball bats can be used, you can tell the damage you or your follow warrior members have taken by just looking at them with blood and cuts etc clearly showing on the character models the same goes for your rivals etc slamming your opponents head against a wall leaving a big blood stain on it or throwing them under a tube shows how brutal the game can be so Keep the kiddies away.
all in all this is a great game even if you haven't seen the movie, there is even a bonus game once you complete the main one which is a kind of a double dragon remake using the warriors it's only 5 levels long but it's rather good, not to mention other modes that you unlock doing bonus missions etc such as one on one fights gang fights survivor which is to see how long you can last, even a capture the flag style mode using a girl, anyway as I have said get the game even if you haven't seen the movie you will enjoy it and if you are a fan of the movie then there is no question you will be a fan of this to.
