To be honest I'm surprised that the warriors wasn't made into a game sooner! Its theme of rampaging gangs beating each other up is perfect game material.
Well regardless of how long it took to come, all that counts is that its here now and that its tons of bottle hurling , graffiti spraying ,face punching fun !!
This is easily one of the greatest games to be based on a movie , not only in terms of gameplay but in terms of staying true to the film . In fact not only does it stay faithful to the film, it actually expands on it -the warriors adds a new back story to the movie that fits snugly besides the existing plot! It really is a commendable achievement.
In terms of authenticity the game excels. The game captures the grimy, gritty , down beat 70s look of the film brilliantly and features hilariously macho dialouge delivered by a cast who for the most part actually featured in the original film!
The gameplay combines the "crime em up" mechanics of GTA with a "def jam: fight for NY" like combat system , and its pretty easy to pick up-you'll be robbin bums for cash and breakin into cars in no time .However on an ethical level you may feel a bit opposed to playing a game in which mugging and vandalism allows you to progress.However if u can stomach the excess then you'll enjoy some great gameplay
On the whole this is one of the best games to be based on a movie.Its a grimy, tough, gripping classic.Great stuff.
