Trivia - Robocop

Speech
The digized speech from the title screen comes not from a movie but is a voice of the game coder Peter Johnson. He couldn't get a decent sample from VHS-tape and decided to do it with his own voice. It was treated through a Yamaha SPX90 effects unit.


Graphics
You can actually build a face of Gary Bracey (Ocean's software development manager) in the identikit minigame.

Awards:

Origins
Based partially on Data East 1988 coin-op.
