"You're Busted!"

I got NARC as part of Midway Arcade Treasures 2. It is probably one of the best games on there! Let me tell you why.

Story: 8/10
Okay, you are a special officer in the Narcotics division. Lots of crime has been goin' on downtown, and your out to bust some bad guys. The main villain in this game is Mr. Big, the head honcho of the drug dealers. You have to take him out as well, while collecting as much evidence as you can along the way.

Graphics: 10/10
This game is pretty old. It was made around 1987, but the graphics are great! Nothing looks pixelated, all animations are smooth, and it looks real cool when you shoot people with rockets. Can you say... "BOOOOOOOM!?"

Gameplay: 10/10
Short and sweet. Shoot, rockets, jump, duck, and move. How simple can you get? It's easy to bust lots of bad guys, because all you have to do is get right next to 'em! Your guy will shout "FREEZE!" or "YOU'RE BUSTED" and you will get bust points. It's that easy!

Replay Value: 8/10
Adventure shooters don't usually have replay value, you went through the whole game, and you don't want to do it again, right? But this one is just too addicting! You want to keep beating your high score and busting more bad guys!

Sound: 10/10
The music sounds good! It gets you in the mood for shooting bad guys. All the screams sound good too! Guns sound real, and my favorite... "YOU'RE BUSTED!"

Difficulty: 9/10
No, the game isn't super hard. I gave it a 9 because it suits players well. It starts of simple, and then gets harder. But the last levels can get ridiculously hard. Thank you, unlimited continues!

Extras: N/A
Most arcade games don't have extra stuff, so it isn't fair to rate here.

Buy? Rent? Stay Away?
This game is part of Midway Arcade Treasures 2, so BUY THAT! I don't see it in arcades so just get your hands on it if you can.

TOTAL: 9.

"No one had the guts... until now."
