Films

  • RoboCop (1987)
    • This first blockbuster film gives us a satirical take on an apocalyptic future, poking fun at Reganism while presenting an action-packed adventure.
    • RoboCop 2
    • Bigger, dumber, and sillier, this second film was hampered by studio interference and lost much of what made the first film interesting.
    RoboCop 3
    • This was a more kid-friendly, and far less interesting, third film which essentially killed the franchise for two decades.
    RoboCop (2014)
    • An attempt to reboot and revive the franchise, 2014's film was a soulless cash-grab that lacked the RoboCop magic.

Video Games

  • RoboCop (1988 Arcade Game)
    • We go back to the arcades to check out the first video game for Detroit's savior.
  • RoboCop 2 (1991 Arcade Game)
    • Data East returns with a second adventure for Detroit's protector, but this one lacks the freshness or interesting ideas to make it stand out.
  • RoboCop 2 (1991 NES Game)
    • Painting by Numbers brings us an NES (and Game Boy) adaptation of the second film, but it's absolutely not worth playing at all.
  • RoboCop Versus the Terminator (1993 SNES Game)
    • Interplay brings us a game based on a comic miniseries that has a great story... and not much else going for it.
  • RoboCop Versus the Terminator (1994 Genesis Game)
    • Virgin's interpretation of the comic series finds it's best home on the Genesis, even if it's still a flawed experience.
  • RoboCop Versus the Terminator (1994 GB)
    • The final adaptation of this comic series is a sad and uninspired affair that would have made anyone that purchased it in 1994 quite sad.
