Purusit Force: Extreme Justice
Genre: Action/Arcade
Publisher: Sony
Developer: BigBig Studios
Release Date: January 29, 2008
Pursuit Force: Extreme Justice is really a game of highs and lows. There are a ton of great
things to love about this game, and in almost all cases, those great things are equally met by things to hate. For instance, it's nice to have a story full of twists and turns, but on the other hand no character evolution; and while some of the mechanics are rock solid and tons of fun, others are broken.
Whether or not you'll enjoy Pursuit Force really depends on what you're looking for in a game. As a sequel, I'd personally say that it is a much more complete and ultimately better game than its predecessor. Big Big Studios really knew what made their game great and showcased those parts to the fullest. If you own a PSP and are looking for a great portable game, you could do far worse than Pursuit Force.
I mentioned that the story had a lot of twists and turns. That was an understatement. You'll play as the Commander of an elite police squad. (If you haven't guessed, they're called the Pursuit Force) As the game sets out, you're knee deep in the ceremony of marrying the beautiful and talented Jessica, who series vets will recognize as the helicopter pilot for the first game. The beautiful moment is ruined, however, when a group of convicts, returning from the first game and freshly broken out of prison, decide to crash the party and let city know they're back. Another returning group is the Warlords, a Russian mercenary group led by General. From pretty early on, it's obvious that the sudden reemergence of these gangs you helped to defeat in the first game is no accident. They are here for blood. Two other gangs quickly join the fray and it comes down to you vs. everyone else. On top of all that, you have a new rival police group known as Viper Squad to contend with, as well as breaking in your rookie members. Eventually, you'll battle on hovercrafts, make your way on across a speeding train, snipe enemies out of a helicopter, and even save the city from a nuclear explosion.
