Replay – Die Hard Vendetta

Several Game Informer editors are big fans of John McClane, but we're still disappointed that we haven't seen a genuinely great Die Hard game. Given the right developer, McClane's trip to Nakatomi Plaza could make for a tense and action-packed gaming experience. Instead, we have Die Hard Vendetta. Developed by Bits Studios (who also made games based on Constantine, Last Action Hero, and Itchy & Scratchy), it's a 2002 Gamecube title that did little to please fans of the film franchise.

Watch below to see Tim Turi, Andrew Reiner, Intern Jack Frontier, and myself play this disappointing (and Bruce Willis-less) shooter.

  • You guys should do a replay on Echo Night for PS1!

  • The Pooper.

  • I think there may be an error in the video.  It shows the Replay Roulette Title Sequence at the start of the episode and I believe that is usually just the Replay logo, Roulette is later in the segment.  Just wanted to let the Video Editor know.

  • Those were pretty bad.

  • Okay, I'm guessing there's about 20 comments below me pointing out that the title card was for Replay Roulette, not the regular Replay opening. Also, always nice to have the interns featured as guests.

  • Taken from Wikipedia "There are six video games based on Rave Master. The games are; Groove Adventure Rave, Groove Adventure Rave: Mikan no Hiseki, and Groove Adventure Rave: Plue no Daibouken were released on the PlayStation. Groove Adventure Rave, and Rave Master: Special Attack Force! (Groove Adventure Rave: Hikari to Yami no Daikessen 2) were both released on the Game Boy Advance, and Rave Master which was released on the Nintendo GameCube." Jesus.
  • I think it's time for someone to make a new Die Hard game.
    Also, Dan acts like a freaking kid when it comes to anime. Grow up.
  • I hardly say this but this game would make a hilarious and short super replay. I cracked up a lot during this ep, nice find!

  • You guys need to play Die Hard Trilogy for the PS1. It's extremely difficult, but it's fun.
  • Aside from a plethora of mobile games and crappy arcades over the years, Die Hard hasn't received a well-thought on game yet. Rockstar, I'm looking at you. You've made Max Payne, now buy the rights to John McClane and do that too. :p
  • I just watched Die Hard for the first time yesterday!  Coincidence...?

  • Staff
    Sorry about the bumper mixup, guys. Dumb, late night, drag and drop error on my part. I'm out of town and won't be able to fix it until Monday. Although, given how bad Die Hard was, it may have been for the best anyway. :P
  • Boy Dan sure had a little freak out during Replay Roulette. Does anyone at GI like anime?
  • the die hard game looked terrible, but ravemaster looks like something i would make my friends play at parties just to see their suffering.

  • Haha, funny commentary despite sitting through two crappy games.

    And anything anime really sucks. I'm with you on that, Dan. The big eyes, the cheesiness, lots of spiky hair, the stupid comic relief creatures... Ugh...

  • Don't forget Die Hard for the PS1. Those were alright.

  • Thank you for the last 2 seconds, Jason.

  • "Is that Mitt Romney?"

    BLAST HIM NAO

  • I love how much Dan hates anime and manga for its cliche storylines and ridiculous situations but he LOVES pro wrestling.
  • Great episode of Replay! I remember playing both of those games, and they were as terrible as you would expect.
