Acclaim is one of those companies that has an odd history. Many of its terrible games were hidden under the LJN and Flying Edge labels, and it had a long relationship with Midway and WWF/WWE.

Dynamite Cop is an Amazing Beat’em Up for the Dreamcast
Dynamite Cop is very similar to other 3D beat’em ups. It reminds me of the Die Hard arcade game, which was awesome! This game is just as good and leans toward humor a bit more than other beat’em ups. You fight groups of ridiculous characters that only get more strange and ridiculous as you go.Continue reading “Dynamite Cop is an Amazing Beat’em Up for the Dreamcast”
