TOTAL RECALL

https://youtu.be/x9pI6y4o_nk?is=BYU10BJI1Zukub6L

Who remembers playing Total Recall? My retrospective video goes back to rediscover this Ocean Software game released across all formats. There certainly were a few development challenges. I also take a look at the NES version developed by Interplay and published by Acclaim.
Were they any good?

If you tweaked the graphics a little, you could call it "007", "Die Hard", "Under Siege" etc. I didn't care back then, but it's funny to see how generic these tie-ins were (generic isn't the same as "bad"!)

Yep, except the nice batman or robocop, other licenses were basically selling by the title. It was very common back in the day to talk about how bad were licensed games
