Medium Stage Review of Virtua Cop 2 Playing Game

In my previous post I have already review the beginner stage of Virtua cop 2 game. I have already announced that there are three stages in the game. The game introductions have been also written by me in my previous post. So, I am going to review its medium stage of Vcop 2 game.

medium-stage-of-virtua-cop

The medium stage of the arcade game begins from outside of a house and end at another outside of the house. Main fight is in the house. In this stage you will get light gun and machine gun to shoot your enemies.

ready-to-fight-in-medium-stage-of-virtua-cop-2

The medium plot of the computer game has been also created very carefully. In each stage of the game you will get your report of “score”, “gangsters”, “civilians”, “shots”, “hits” and “accuracy”. So, make sure during the shooting that you have not to kill civilians and targets only gangsters by only on bullet. If you do like so then your accuracy and score will increase.

stage-report-of-virtua-cop-2

If you shoot civilian then you will loose a credit. In this plot you will get 2 scenes. After crossing 2nd scenes in the last you have to fight with your boss. In this stage boss are very active because they are not one. They will fire on you together. So, you have to shoot their all fire very sincerely along with reload your bullet. If you miss, you will loose score and will be killed. So, for the stage you should save your credit from beginning.

boss-of-virtua-cop-2-of-medium-stage

Lastly, the middle stage of Virtua cop 2 is very interesting than beginner. You will enjoy very much in the end of the stage when you will fight with boss. So, from my point of view it is hard from all stage and interesting also.

To handle very effectively machine gun you should care that no one shoots you. If done so then automatically you will loose machine gun and again will get light gun.

The entire scene is very interesting and you will get instruction also in the game. If you forget to reload your then you will get the sound to “reload”. Sound is also very melodious of the game.

Lastly, I can say the arcade game for computer playing is very interesting and much liking. It will cover your whole screen of computer during the playing.

Thumbs Up:

Call of Duty: World at War is an excellent game in the world war settings with some advanced gameplay than its former parts Call of Duty 1, 2 and 3. Call of Duty 4 can be excluded in t his comparison as it was set in the modern time settings. The story of game is excellent with many turns. Some new weapons have been introduced in this part such as flamethrowers and bayonets. Multiplayer game option is also available in which two players can play via split screen and four players can play online. Vehicles are usable in multiplayer games also. Player in the game has enhanced ability to swim. Nazi Zombies are an added attraction in the game. There are total six multiplayer modes available. Soundtrack of the game is also worth mentioning like its previous parts.

Thumbs Down:

Although Call of Duty: World at War is a great game with advanced graphics and good story, but those familiar setting and familiar weapons may be boring for some game lovers. Some critics believe that plot of campaign in Pacific locations hurts the continuity of game’s story.

Response:

Call of Duty: World at War received general positive review from game critics. Multiplayer mode is highly praised throughout the world. Almost all game magazines and websites praised it for its consistency and well designed graphics.

Although the whole game is indispensable but there are some small faults. One thing is that although the option of rewinding of save gameplays is available, yet it does not work the way player expects. Online mode is very slow due to large number of players. Al-controlled marines in t he game may disappoint you while you are expecting some help from them. These flaws are small but are completely dominated by the positive points of Halo 3.
