Virtua Cop PC Game 1996 Overview: Players take on the role of police officers and use a light gun to shoot criminals and progress through the game, with penalties for shooting citizens.
Features of Virtua Cop:
Participants assume the role of police officers – either Michael Hardy or his partner, James Cools. Played in a first-person perspective, players must use a light gun (or a joypad in the Sega Saturn version) to shoot criminals and advance through the game. Players begin the game with a reloadable chamber of six bullets and a set number of lives. Taking enemy fire causes the player to lose a life; power-ups can be shot to grant the player a special weapon or even an extra life.
… Despite some initial skepticism over its introduction of D polygons in a genre that previously used realistic digitized sprites (most notably Lethal Enforcers), Virtua Cop went on to become a commercial success and received critical acclaim for enhancing the genre with its D graphics, camera system, realistic animations, and ability to target specific body parts with realistic consequences. It was influential on later shooter games, with D polygons being adopted by subsequent light gun shooters such as Time Crisis and The House of the Dead instead of the digitized sprites previously used in the genre, as well as inspiring the first-person shooter GoldenEye 007.
