红白机里的Schwarzenegger——异型大战铁血战士[Predator.nes]

恩,我知道你知道/看过这个电影,可是你玩过它改编的游戏么?
要不是我自己掏钱买了这么一盘卡,这辈子估计也不知道它—即使我现在有这么多的模拟器。
OK废话少说,开始玩。
插入卡带,Start进入。开始动画做的倒是不错。狂按Start跳过,直奔主题。


我敢说在一秒钟后你就会有要换游戏的冲动。这他妈的是什么啊?没有小岛,森林,更没有什么异型;只有一片一片的泡沫不断地压上来?主角——我们的加州市长——他本身的迷彩效果反而让他看起来像一个Hack得很糟糕的游戏人物——端着一挺只能发射出吸管那么细的子弹的重机枪去扎破那些泡泡...比魂斗罗差远了嘛!换游戏?不行,自己买的卡啊。硬着头皮再看看,至少玩过一关。

好不容易吃了个子弹[吃子弹时不小心碰到个泡泡还被弹回来好远,肌肉男有这么弱吗?],什么,还不如刚才的子弹有威力?郁闷~ 又费掉几滴血...终于熬到Boss了,中途吃到一个最强的子弹,只需击中一个敌人,其他的都会受攻击[类似Super Contra里的F弹]。

先看看它的招数:发出四个人头,然后隐身,如此循环。OK,30秒内将其击毙。

这时候才出来Stage o1的字样,原来刚才的是一个Intro,称作Big Mode[大模式]!接下来的是一个全新的画面:开始只能用Punch进攻,随后就可以捡到机枪,激光枪和手雷等武器。虽说操作感并没有好哪儿去,可是诡异的音乐和比Metroids更阴森可怖的背景还是让我惊喜了一下下。如此玩下过七大关卡[每关都有一个Intro],我不知道Continue了多少次——日本人细腻的游戏设定啊,你得跳上一个又一个梅花桩似的石块,稍不小心就会掉入幽谷深潭而丧命;还有那么多奇怪的异型叫你躲闪不及...不说了,大家亲身去体会一下吧!

下面是一个似乎是游戏开发人员对此游戏的评论,说得也比较有意思,只是这哥们似乎没有把Intro玩完便说This games sucks:

Predator - nes
You may have felt some of the hype about the new Alien versus Predator [a.k.a. A.V.P.] movie that was just released to theaters, but have you heard of Predator’s Nintendo Entertainment System video game? I bet you haven’t. In 1987, Twentieth Century Fox felt it would be necessary to release a video game based on their hit movie in hopes to draw children into this ever growing franchise. Well, aside from the game’s popularity the characters still stand the test of time.
About an hour ago, I was looking through my NES rom collection in hopes to find some clues on how to write my own NES coding for future reference by reading public domain scripts and original hacks. Opening the “P” folder, I expected to see games like Pac-man and Paperboy, but never in a million years would I have expected The Predator. I just had to quit my journey for public domain’s and play this game. Not quite optimistic on its game play (imagining Platoon’s platform), I only anticipated a great introduction…and that’s just what I got. After seeing the introduction, I wanted to murder that alien bastard! Invade my Earth will ya?! HUH! I’ll get Schwarzenegger after you! Now, for those of you who don’t know the back story for Predator, I’m going to explain to you what it’s all about…or at least what I have learned from the game, since I fell asleep in the middle of the movie.

Major “Dutch” Schaefer [Schwarzenegger] and his merry men of wrestlers fly deep into the jungle to rescue their allies, who are being held by evil guerillas. Jesse Ventura spits tobacco and calls everyone a pussy as they land their helicopter.

They find the guerillas’ quarters, and break out into a fight until the screen shot above became full of fire only revealing black silhouettes. Finally, Dutch’s men succeed in defeating the evil guerillas. But on their way back home, each of his men is killed…one after the other by an unknown creature.

Even Jesse Ventura dies! Though, he resurrects and was elected governor of Minnesota in '95.
Only Dutch survives and ends up fighting the creature, alone. Dutch later became governor of California.

What the hell is this?! No jungle, no bushes, nothing. I had to fight bubbles with my trusty machine gun that shot straws. At this point I was going to eject the game and proceed with the rest of the night but I promised myself that I at least try and attempt to beat the first stage. So, that’s just what I did. Since the bubbles lessened and the stage scrolled faster, I assumed that I was nearing the end…perhaps a boss would emerge. Imagining the boss to be a giant bubble, or Jesse Ventura spitting tobacco as an attack, seeing that it was the Predator himself was very impressive. Oh no, wait…they had to make it cheesy.

The Predator’s only strategy as a boss was to throw four heads at me and vanish into the background…repeat and rinse. This being one of the easiest bosses I have ever faced in all my video game years, I sort of laughed when I beat him. I’m pretty sure I even cursed the game for being a waste of programmers’ time. Overall the game play is disgusting; the graphics (besides the introduction) is appalling and the enemies remind me of a poorly hacked rom. Out of a possible 4 I give The Predator…a ZERO!
