This uselessness also extends to my AI team members. Other weapons feel useless in comparison. With the shotgun, I can blast away enemies in one shot, even from a long distance. The unavoidable shootouts wouldn’t be a problem if the gunplay were actually fun. Shooting, constant shooting: every mission ends in a chaotic gunfight. Missions and storylines are randomly generated during each run. The hub map lets you choose between several levels and missions. Unfortunately, the dull shooter gameplay can’t keep up with this interesting idea. By levelling up, you take perks and weapons with you into a new run. If Baker dies on a mission, the campaign ends and you start over. In order for Travis Baker to rise to Crime Boss, he must capture and control as many areas of the city as possible. One of the few highlights of Crime Boss: Rockay City is its rogue-like single-player mode. But this trash is just too trashy, even for me. Again and again I’m confronted with gems such as «It’s crime time, motherfucker!» And after successfully completing missions, my team members regale me with near-Confucian quotations: Who is the bruisers? We is! Who is the loser? They is. Gang lord Hielo, played by Vanilla Ice, uses «bitch» in what feels like every sentence. The scripts match the subterranean quality level of the actors. The lowlight of the star ensemble is a comatose Chuck Norris. I can’t explain this miserable performance any other way. His lines sound as if he read them at home, in bed, just after waking up. He’s supposedly the sheriff of Rockay City. What’s really shocking is Chuck Norris’ "acting". The only positive that stands out is Damion Poitier, who convincingly plays his role as an advisor to drug dealer Travis Baker. Sadly, the quality of the acting on display is also lacking. It looks like someone randomly shuffled the game’s video library. Throughout the game, I’m endlessly bombarded with qualitatively questionable cutscenes in which Chuck Norris and his action buddies discuss all sorts of weird things. But after only a few minutes of playtime, a lingering disappointment sets in. Damion Poitier – known for stunt work and games like Payday 2Īs a 90s kid, my hype levels were pretty high.Michael Madsen – known for Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill.Kim Basinger – known for LA Confidential, Final Call.Michael Rooker – known for The Walking Dead, Guardians of the Galaxy.Danny Trejo – known for Machete, From Dusk Till Dawn.Vanilla Ice – white rapper from the 90s, known for Ice Ice Baby.Chuck Norris – known for Walker, Texas Ranger and memes.The game world is full of shady characters and brutal gang lords, portrayed by an all-star cast of mostly nineties action heroes. And not just the drug trade, but every illegal activity in Rockay City. Your goal is to gain control over the whole city. In Crime Boss: Rockay City, you take on the role of Travis Baker, aspiring drug dealer. I dont reccomend this game, even considering lower price with discount.Lousy work from an all (ex-)star ensemble Story, cinematics, voice acting is extremly bad. Problem is, the missions are so repetetive, you probably wouldnt want to play this game over and over again. Rogue-like mechanics in the single player mode is supposed to be one the selling points of this game. I dont understand why cant you play story campaign in CO-OP. Even in multiplayer, you play CO-OP against these dumb AI enemies, which is not very entertaining. It feels like youre shooting some zombies with guns. Playing campaign with dumb bots as your teammates is really painful. There is a stealth mechanics but no matter what you do, it ends like a shootout. There is a This was supposed to be one of those dumb fun games but it turned into a cringefest. This was supposed to be one of those dumb fun games but it turned into a cringefest.
