Can you dig it? Badboy publisher Rockstar invites mature gamers to "come out to play," in this beat'emup adaptation of Walter Hill's violent, urban adventure film. As in the 1979 cultclassic cinema, players become members of a New York City street gang called the Warriors, who are drawn far from the safety of their home territory to attend a large gathering, called by a charismatic Bronx gang leader named Cyrus.

When Cyrus is shot down in the middle of his passionate plea for gang unification, it leads to anything but, and searing rivalries flare in the ensuing chaos. Alone in the crowd and with many miles of enemy territory between them and their Coney Island turf, the Warriors must make their way back home by any means possible. This challenge intensifies immeasurably when false rumors begin to spread that it was the Warriors who killed Cyrus, and every other gang in the city starts gunning for them.

Incorporating material from the engagingly disturbing Sol Yurik novel (on which the movie was based), the game begins a few months before Cyrus' speech, giving players a chance to become acquainted with the personalities (and fighting moves) of each Warrior. When the fateful night of Cyrus' shooting comes, and players must battle their way back through eerily empty city streets and subway lines, they can expect to be confronted by the film's most vicious (and surreally attired) enemy gangs. ~ T.J.

    Pros: Clean clear graphics, smooth gameplay and great camera angles

    Cons: Difficult, is that a con? I would like more death thats always possible

    From the time I put the game in, I was not sure what to expect, all I knew is that rockstar made it and never let me down. Even though people looked down at state of emergency, they never said it was suppose to be like gta or life like, it was a fun ...game. On another level you have The Warriors with a story so intense that you will fumbling over your words with the graphics and gameplay alone. Read more Less

    The Warriors

    In their attempt to dress up a solid brawler, Rockstar actually hurt the experience a bit by adding endless, tedious minigames that pretty much overpower the game in the early levels. Read more

    The Warriors (PS2)

    But you're always waiting for something else to happen, for the game to become something more than running around and pressing X, square and triangle and for that famous Rockstar depth to emerge. Sadly, The Warriors is never more than running about smashing people's heads in to cool 1970s music and listening to clichd gang speak. We demand more these days. Read more
