PrinceWatercress plays Robocop (ZX Spectrum) - Part 3 of 4


This is where the difficulty heats up. If you can make it past these two stages, you've gotten pretty good.


Stage 5

The warehouse is quite possibly the worst level in the game, as this is one place where it can be easy to take damage.

Going in diagonal directions on the joystick lets you go up and down stairs, and look alive for power-ups...you'll need them! Thankfully, they're always flashing.

The three-way shot can be nice, as it always fires two diagonal shots in addition to the one that fires straight forward, but the shotgun will allow to take care of enemies a little more efficiently, especially the chainsaw guys.

The stairs do not protect you from the chainsaw guys; you can be clearly above them and they can still hit you.

Stage 6

Here, you'll try to arrest Clarence Boddinger, but you cannot arrest him because of the fourth objective. From here, you'll have to fight ED-209...with your fists. When you approach it, duck down to avoid getting shot at. When you get close, alternate between punching and ducking. Three punches later, ED-209 will be defeated...for now.
