Based on the "hit" 1995 film, Judge Dredd came out on a bunch of different platforms, including the SNES, Game Boy, Game Gear, and DOS/Windows. What sets it apart from MANY other adaptations from films is the fact that like... the film is only the first half of the game? The devs decided "Fuck it" and went on to incorporate elements from the comics as well, with an eventual face-off with Judge Death. While perhaps not a quintessential run and gun platformer, I recall really enjoying the sound effects in particular and it just felt a little more serious than lots of other games that were similar in design.

It is not a hidden gem nor does it seem to have a cult following. Price Charting has it around 10 bucks for a loose copy, and about 25 for it complete in box. As far as my limited research goes, it was never re-released or anything of that nature.

It is a mediocre game for a mediocre film based off an amazing source material that probably could have had a dozen amazing games by now, but I don't know if it even has one that is better than mediocre? Were you THE LAW in Judge Dredd?
