Fun fact: Back in the late 80s, Orion wanted a crossover of the two characters for a movie but was scrapped in favor of Robocop 2 due to James Cameron buying the rights to Terminator and sold it to Carolco Pictures and Tristar for T2, so even if things worked out, they still had to deal with Cameron making Terminator 2 from a different comedy and legal battles. Thus, a movie crossover was definitely impossible to make in movie form.

Next to AVP, this has been my favorite crossover and best thing to have come out of the 90's pop culture. Considering how the movies had lost steam lately and each entry having less success than the previous one, I think they really should make a Robocop Vs The Terminator movie as one last entry and the only idea left where audiences would see it since shared universes are really a big attraction nowadays. Was happy that their crossover in MK11 references their history in games and comics, and annoyed at the damn kids who think they are referencing Death Battle 😒

In the original Robocop film, he was supposed to be MUCH more agile. Peter Weller even studied with a world renowned mime, in France, to get the movement down, which all had to be changed. Unfortunately, the suit was just too cumbersome to move around in. Any shot of Robocop in the car, was because he had no robo-pants on. It's also why the now famous movie poster, shows him with just his foot on the car door frame. He couldn't get in.

It's weird that i either completely missed this game or just forgot about it. I just don't remember playing it.

There's so many amazing games lost to time that i sort of care more about that than what's new.

Surprised you didn't mention the awesome little twist from the snes version about how was setup by skynet to use his data uploader, how skynet trapped him in place all throughout judgement day and how robocop found himself in the future, partly responsible for humanity's destruction. It was a hell of a twist especially when I knew nothing from the comic books. I never played the genesis version so I didn't know the story just ended with a "prevented it from happening" scenario. Awesome games and worthy of playing both.

The Genesis game has some interesting Gameplay. The old Data East arcade game was a traditional slow protagonist shooters. Realtime seems to have known they should dump the quarter dumping style of the original and make the game fun and winnable. It's amazing how console developers failed to make the game winnable because Nintendo or whoever thought that if we rented a game and didn't beat it in a day because were completely frustrated by the game being cheaply spiking difficulty early we would decidedto buy the game instead of never wanting to see it again. They looked at Contra's home game sequels, but they seem to have also wanted to keep much of the feel of the Data East game. So Robocop walks slowly and flies when he hanging on a wire. For much of the game he's kind of got stupid weapons vs the enemies. Trying to play the game again, there was an sudden difficulty spike on the third boss. Robocop is required to jump and grab and doing so was not reliable. Failure to move could lead to almost an immediate loss of a life as there was moment of invincibility when being hit. I suspect once I got the motion down it wouldn't be a problem since the boss wasn't fast, but the way the robot life drained here (and under some flame traps) left the game with a rough around the edges feel despite the quality of the graphics and sound. Still, I think this was a pretty solid game on the Genesis. Unlike the SNES version. I don't know why they made it look so different when they didn't need to (Except the obligatory Mode 7 level).

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Different developers is one of the reasons why games were so different. Just look at the six different Batman returns games on the various systems all by six different developers. I sure did love the arcade Robocop game.
