That's a real corpse you're seeing when you get game over.....

Yes, really. It's been confirmed that the body is of a civilian killed during the Bosnian war on June 8, 1992. The developer literally took a picture of his tv screen and used it in the game. I wish I was kidding.....

Also theories suggest that during the opening story the background shows a picture of holocaust victims. I'm not certain of this, but I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case too.

This is a bad game developed in very VERY bad taste. Just watch AVGN's video on this game, or other Youtubers talk about it and its disturbing nature. Don't bother trying to find it or play it though....

The music... oh God, the music!

Warning: Spoilers
This game is unnecessary. There's a five second loop out of some song that plays through THE ENTIRE playthrough... the cutscene, the game itself, the game over screen!

The game over screen is literally a dead body. UMM, WHAT!?! You heard me right... or read. A dead body. The gameplay isn't any better. You're shooting... something. The beginning cutscene is profanity-ridden for no reason. It includes Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee for no reason.

What. The. Hell.

One of the greatest moments in the history of the video game industry.

It should not come as a surprise to anyone that I am scoring this game a 10/10, I have truly never played a game like it before.

I've seen arguments suggesting that this is the best shooting game of all time, or perhaps the best console game of all time and I would have to agree with them. There just simply aren't any games I can think of off the top of my head that strike me as masterpieces the same way Hong Kong 97 does. This is a revolutionary moment in gaming and I can't think of any words to describe my experiences playing it. End of story.

Ok

I have played the game and it is fun, aside from the game over screen. The only problem I have with this game is that every time you die, you have to go back to the beginning of the game.

Oh my God!

My god, what a horrible game, this game is extremely generic, the images are ugly and disgusting, the enemies are images of very bad quality and their "animation" is themselves, they are the only ones that on a different side result in a lazy animation, this game is a shame, the Game Over screen, who was the idiot who decided to put that game over screen my god !, bad and disgusting game
