Razing Storm: Difference between revisions

* [[Attack Its Weak Point|Take]] [[For Massive Damage|Down]] [[Humongous Mecha|Titans]]!

 

 

You play as two members of a special forces unit, identified as [[Code Name|Alpha One and Alpha Two]], to fight futuristic terrorists. Most of the game primarily involves the use of an machine gun that is effective against soldiers and lightly armoured personnel. At certain points, you will fight against the terrorists' [[Mecha-Mooks|death machines]]. These include the fast but weak [[Mini-Mecha]] "Raptor", a [[Spider Tank]], and [[Humongous Mecha]] known as "Kraken", forcing you to change weapons. Your mission is to eliminate the terrorist threat and destroy the enemy's headquarters, while battling the terrorists and their [[Humongous Mecha]] in the process.

* Cluster Shot (for [[Mini-Mecha|Raptors]] and the Mission 4 squad of [[Powered Armor|HACS]])

* [[Stuff Blowing Up|Rocket Launcher]] (for [[Humongous Mecha]])

* [[Kill Sat|Satellite pointer]] (to destroy the enemy HQ and the [[Spider Tank]])

 

[[I Thought It Meant|Not to be confused]] with the similarly named super move of [[Fatal Fury|Geese]] [[King of Fighters|Howard]] (Raging Storm)

* [[And Now for Someone Completely Different]]: In the [[Play Station 3]] version of Razing Storm, you play as one of the special forces guarding Paulo Guerra's prison. {{spoiler|He gets shot dead by one of Paulo Guerra's ''own'' special forces. Then you get to use the main characters again}}.

* [[Crosshair Aware]]: If a crosshair appears on an enemy, it means that it's about to shoot you (red: player 1, blue: player 2)! Hide as soon as possible, or just shoot them down first. Enemy rockets are highlighted by a yellow caution triangle.

* [[Decapitated Army]]: [[Subverted Trope|COMPLETELY SUBVERTED]]. The terrorists are more pissed than ever once you destroy their leader and HQ, and send in lots of [[Powered Armor]] troops, a [[Spider Tank]], and a [[Cool Airship]] to prevent your escape.

** The first [[Mini-Mecha|Raptor]] you fight in the game acts as a [[Mini Boss]] of sorts. Later, they come in as [[Giant Mook|Giant Mooks]].

** The Kraken is the boss of the first stage, that constantly tries to chase down and harass the player. The second stage has you fight against ''two'' of them, one at a time.

* [[Kill It with Water]]: The [[Spider Tank]] boss has an attack where it fires out... giant black exploding bubbles [[Doomy Dooms of Doom|of doom]].

* [[Kill Sat]]: You get to use this on the enemy HQ, as well as a [[Wall Crawl|Wall Crawling]] [[Spider Tank]].

* [[Last Ditch Move]]: When you defeat the [[Spider Tank]], it fires out a [[Macross Missile Massacre]] in a bid to destroy the platform you're on. Failing to destroy said missiles in time get you the [[Downer Ending]].

* [[Lightning Bruiser]]: The [[Mini-Mecha]] Raptors can take quite a bit of damage, have rapid firing lasers as well as a homing missile launcher, and they '''''[[Goddamned Bats|jump all over the goddamn place]]'''''!!!

* [[Luckily, My Shield Will Protect Me]]: Your shield will defend you from nothing less than [[Beam Spam]], [[More Dakka]], [[Macross Missile Massacre]] (unless it's the one from the [[Spider Tank]]), [[Wave Motion Gun|Wave Motion Guns]], and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|falling concrete]].

** Krakens ''love'' to use these on you with their multiple missile turrets..

** Once defeated, the [[Spider Tank]] fires out a ''ton'' of missiles (which you have to destroy) in a last ditch attempt to destroy your squad. Failing to destroy enough of them in time gets you the [[Downer Ending]].

* [[Made of Explodium]]: Many of the armored terrorists explode when defeated. Justified, as they're wearing light mechanical armour.

* [[Made of Indestructium]]: Your shield can withstand regular shots, missiles, lasers, plasma, ramming from a [[Mini-Mecha]] or [[Humongous Mecha]], falling buildings and even a [[Wave Motion Gun]].

** Your teammate, "[[Born Lucky|Fortune]]", is one of the few who don't die during the entire course of the game (where [[Anyone Can Die]]).

** Krakens are [[Humongous Mecha]] that move via [[Combat Tentacles]] and have an oversized elongated "head".

* [[Spiritual Sequel]]: To ''Crisis Zone'', no less.

* [[Spotlight-Stealing Title]]: The [[Play Station 3]] version is called ''[[Time Crisis]]: Razing Storm''.

* [[Stuff Blowing Up]]: The terrorists with light armour, the [[Powered Armor|HACS]], the [[Mini-Mecha|Raptors]], the [[Humongous Mecha|Krakens]], the [[Spider Tank]], the [[Cool Airship]] [[Final Boss]], and some parts of the terrain like generators, cars and other flammable stuff.

* [[Subsystem Damage]]: Krakens have multiple guns, all of which can be targeted and destroyed to make life easier. It's real [[Attack Its Weak Point|weak point]], however, is the [[Wave Motion Gun|main cannon]].

* [[Unexpected Gameplay Change]]: The sequel on the [[Play Station 3]] became more like a [[First Persoon Shooter]] than a [[Light Gun Game]]. No wonder it got poor reception.

* [[The Very Definitely Final Dungeon|The Very Definitely Final Stage]]: Stage 4, billed as a "bonus stage", sort of counts as this. You need to finish it for the better ending and to get your initials on the high score boards (if you manage to score high enough).

* [[Warmup Boss]]: The first Raptor you fight isn't really that much of a problem, although it jumps around a lot. Your rapid machine gun takes care of its missiles easily.

* [[Wave Motion Gun]]: Both the Krakens and the final boss use this on you. It's a good thing your shield is [[Made of Indestructium]]...
