There Was a RoboCop vs The Terminator Game for Sega Master System?!?
28What did Bob Ross call them, happy little accidents? Well, I had a happy little accident recently when I was out game hunting when I discovered a game I literally had no idea existed on a specific platform. As a child of the 1980s I loved the Terminator and Robocop movies, so you can imagine my shock when I discovered that there was a Robocop vs the Terminator Game for, of all things, the Sega Master System! Who knew?!?
The story is pretty simple. In the near future, the worlds of Robocop and The Terminator merge into a single reality. You, as Robocop, must save mankind by destroying the Skynet supercomputer in the possible future in which machines rule the earth and Skynet is supreme.
The story is set a few years after RoboCop is created. SAC-NORAD contracts Cyberdyne Systems to build Skynet, which is modeled after RoboCop's neural networks. When activated, Skynet becomes self-aware and launches a war against mankind. In the future, Skynet sends several Terminators back to the past to cripple the Resistance.
RoboCop destroys one of the Terminators and travels to the headquarters of Omni Consumer Products (OCP), the technology firm that created him. After defeating an ED-209 unit reprogrammed by the Terminators, RoboCop plugs himself into the OCP computer system, which allows him to reassemble himself in the future. Now RoboCop must fight through the Terminator outposts and make his way to Skynet to destroy it.
I cannot wait to spend time with this title as the description looks and sounds amazing. I've not played the 16-bit versions on the SNES or Sega Genesis so I am going in completely blind. My expectations are pretty high, as I know the comic books which are the source materials for this game are fairly highly regarded.
Have you ever seen a game out in the wild you didn't know existed? What title was that? Let me know by leaving a comment!
