Editorial Reviews:

It's tough being a good cop in a bad town. Just ask Jack Slate. In Dead To Rights for the Game Boy Advance, Jack is stripped of his good-guy image and must dish out some vigilante justice in order to clear his name. In this action shooter, someone has killed Jack's father but has also set up Jack as the killer. You must help Jack escape capture and find the real killer.


User Comments about the Dead to Rights

If you can get past the control scheme, you'll find Dead to Rights pretty easy and quick to get through, but you'll have to get to that point first if you don't throw your GBA against the wall in frustration first.


Everything that made Dead to Rights such a smash on home consoles, including the incredibly violent disarms and kills and police dog attacks, have either been toned down or removed entirely.


All in all, GBA owners who may have been looking forward to Dead to Rights on the GBA should leave this on the shelf.


Dead to Rights for the GBA is one game that should never have been made.


There's no blood at all in the game either, except in some well designed cut scenes with text.


A game that was built on it's shooting and gunplay action is translated here with a completely unreliable shooting interface, which combined with the overly complicated control scheme makes Dead to Rights mindnumbing to say the least.


It's almost impossible to translate all the bloody mayhem and gameplay of the home conversion to a 32-bit portable, and this conversion proves it.


And you'd think with a complicated control scheme that all the super cool martial arts moves you could perform in the home versions would be here, but they're not.


Avoid at all costs.
