Familiar with the film Top Gun that starred
Hollywood's finest actor Tom Cruise as Maverick? Now, after some years, this action-packed movie is put into the realm of computer games. Though I really admire the film, Top Gun the video game has a couple of glitches that I think hard core gamers will find unbelievable. One conspicuous glitch of this video game is the graphics. The jet fighters do not look cool and the environment -- man, these are composed of bland-colored clouds! When it comes to sounds, the sound score in the intro of the video game is the only sound that is familiar with the great movie. Throughout the entirety of this game, the sound becomes repetitively monotonous and the conversations between pilots are also redundant.
When it comes to game play,
Top Gun is, unfortunately, not that cool enough. The mission contains little or no challenge at all. The moment you finish one mission, the next one will just be reminiscent of the previous, only the jet fighter you are riding changes. The controls of this game are very simple that no skill is virtually developed. Though there are numerous number combats, as I said before, your interest will evaporate after the 3rd mission because things will just be repeated. Hence, I do not want to further comment because I would rather watch the flick version over and over than play this video game.
