Great game for its time. It is actually really impressive what they managed to make. It is a fare bit harder than the first one. I did struggle quite a bit to beat all the levels individually, so I ain't even gonna think about beating them all at once to get the final level :)) I am very much fine with what I managed to do, just like with the first game.
i like shooting wheels and flipping cars, this is the greatest shooter of all time
This sequel is a significant improvement over the first game. Recharging your weapon now only requires a single button press. The stages are more diverse and engaging compared to the original, with each offering two distinct paths to choose from. The enduring low-poly charm remains intact.
They definitely cranked things up a notch from Virtua Cop 1 as levels are way more dynamic both in terms of actual character movement setpieces and interactibility with a lot of items in the backgrounds reacting to being shot. The enemy count and overall tempo of the game has been increased a fair bit as well. Every level has two paths in it, so that also encourages at least one replay. It's absolutely a marked improvement over the first. That being said, I still kinda found it a bit meh. Maybe it's the lack of real distinct enemy types, maybe it's the kinda generic urban environment and okay soundtrack not really doing it for me, maybe it's me playing this after coming right off of the house of the dead high, idk. I do think it's funny that the enemy gang just has multiple large squads of dudes just hiding in a single file line behind various desks just to pop out one at a time. It's not an entirely brainless light gun game, as enemies do react quickly and this game definitely encourages taking out enemies that aren't marked yet by the sight just to get them out of the way so they don't get the upper hand later. It's just kinda bland I guess. Inoffensive-core. Though if I ever see an arcade cab of this out in the wild there's no reason NOT for me to give this a go. I'd just rather be playing HotD.
I still remember the good days.
Virtua Cop 2 is pretty much a better Virtua Cop 1!
Not only does Virtua Cop 2 add an extra character to the team, but it also features more dynamic stages, with alternate paths, and some driving sequences that can get quite ectic.
Reloading now can be done by pressing the reload button once, instead of twice, and the game is just simply pretty fun to play!
