You have about 6 Lives and if you get shot with no lives left then you die. When bad guys show up they will have a crosshair on them to tell you to shoot them and they have arrows which go anti-clockwise while the screen zooms in at the target and when it's finished reaching the centre then the enemy shoots you. You can also use the standard controller or the PlayStation compatible Mouse. On to Die Hard 2: Die Harder which is a On-Rails shooter much like Virtua Cop and also it's compatible with the Light Guns that are the HyperBlaster on the PlayStation version but it's unfortunate that the game does not support Namco's G-Con 45 controller. Die Hard 1 is fun but it just gets more harder and harder that you'll be desperate for extra lives. Always watch out for Hostages cause shooting one will cause you lose points. Sometimes you'll be faced with loads of enemies which can damage you easily so the best idea is to wait for one guy to come to you so that you can pick them off easier. Whenever you fail at reaching the bomb you'll lose a Life and you have to restart the whole stage again. While enjoyable the game does surprise you with a bomb sequence where if you think you've finally finished a stage you'll have a 30 second timer to find that elevator before the bomb explodes which delivers some heart pounding moments that you don't want the building to blow up. You'll also find different weapons lying around inside crates or large boxes and also some enemies will drop them such as Grenades, rifles, machine guns and armor to protect you from damage. You control John McClane with the D-pad and using X to shoot, Circle cycles through your other available weapons, Triangle jumps, L1 and R1 strafe and L2 and R2 buttons do a side roll. Each level has a set number of enemies and hostages to be sorted out before you need to find the elevator with a bomb to defuse and take you to the next level. I look at Die Hard 1 first and it's a Third person shooter where the camera the behind the player and your goal is to run around a closed building one floor at a time and then shoot down the terrorists while rescuing Hostages. All 3 of these games are very faithful and also resemble many of the locations seen in the movie. You have Die Hard 1 which plays as a simple 3rd person shooter, Die Hard 2: Die Harder which is a On-Rails Shoot-em-up and finally Die Hard: With a Vengeance is a driving game.
#Die hard trilogy ps1 review movie
Believe it or not unlike many other movie licenses this package is actually great to play.ĭie Hard Trilogy consists of 3 different games which all have different perspectives. This game is a 3 in 1 compilation which fans of the movies will not be disappointed about. One of those kind of games is Die Hard Trilogy. Most Movie licensed video games are just complete rubbish cash-ins which attempt to make a quick buck but however very rarely there is a licensed game that is actually good. Release Date: August 31st 1996 (North America), November 1996 (Europe), December 13th 1996 (Japan)ģ solid Die Hard games in a single game is a superb and fun deal that Movie fans can really appreciate.
