| COPS 2170: The Power of Law |
 |
 |
|
In the future the government watches over everything for the "safety of the public", society is under their complete control. Cyber links are implanted into each newborn child, marking their host with a unique ID. Cities have turned into monstrous urban centers giving the term urban sprawl a hazardous new meaning. This is the world our protagonist, Katrin lives in. She is a recent graduate of the police academy, an excellent student, and an exceptional athlete. On this morning, she wakes up thinking that this day will be just like any other; unaware that her new assignment on the recent terror attacks plaguing the city will place her directly in the path of an evil genius. COPS 2170: The Power of Law is a hybrid of RPG and Tactical Strategy. The central storyline unfolds in the future where the cyberpunk culture and a highly-urban oriented society have populated North America. Players will control Katrin and her team of up to 7 police agents attempting to eliminate the criminal element in their metropolis. [Strtegy First]

Loaded Inc
A good game. I enjoyed playing it, but felt so frustrated initially that it left a bad taste in my mouth.

75
Warcry
Once you get used to the quirks, it's worth playing for a challenge in fighting overwhelming odds, and you feel like you accomplished something when you finally beat the more difficult missions.

64
GameZone
The dated graphics, repetitive sounds, and high difficulty make this game more frustrating than it has to be.

60
PC Gameworld
Horrible writing, voice acting, graphics, and gameplay combine to make a less than memorable game that should only be purchased by the extremely hardcore strategy gamer.

50
GameSpy
If the A.I. was better and the combat system wasn't so clunky, Cops could have been the next great tactical shooter. As it is, however, it's a game in need of a minor overhaul to make it the great game it could have been.

50
Cheat Code Central
I would recommend checking out a walkthrough just to get to the first mission because if I didn't have to review this game the disk would have ended up smashed on the other side of my office in the first fifteen minutes.
45
Worth Playing
Mediocre at best, and nail-bitingly frustrating at worst. A couple of interesting concepts lay mired beneath poorly executed game design.

45
Gaming Nexus
I’d be able to overlook the weak plot and acting if there were a decent game in there to back it up. However, due to frustrating game mechanics and tedious play, I’m not able to drum up any enthusiasm over this title.

45
Game Chronicles
Due to bad camera, bad AI, bad combat, and bad dialogue, this game just isn't much fun to play.

42
GameSpot
This is one of the worst turn-based tactical games in quite a while, thanks to bad gameplay, horrendous storytelling, lackluster graphics, and more.

41
Gamers' Temple
There are just far too many better options out there when it comes to strategy games, so why bother with a poorly designed one that is in the end an exercise in frustration?

40
GameShark
Gamers who just happen to be both cyberpunk freaks and strategy addicts might find some real value from COPS, but overall this is a very disappointing title that most gamers would be better to pass on.

34
My Gamer
There’s no tutorial to ease you into the game, the manual is overly cryptic, there’s no adjustable difficulty level, and combat seems almost intentionally tedious.

30
AceGamez
There is a very tiny weeny fragment of game hidden beneath this shambolic detritus but don't waste your time by searching for it. Cops 2170: The Power of Law is outdated, outclassed and outright appalling.

30
IGN
The interface needs work, folks. The mechanics need work. The fun factor really isn't there, and there isn't even a compelling story to make it worth wading through a game that feels like it should have come out as shareware several years ago.. I liked the music, though.

PC Gamer
In the future, everyone holds their pistols sideways "gangsta-style," which I find hilarious. [May 2005, p.69]
