{"product_id":"die-hard-nes","title":"Die Hard - for NES","description":"\u003cp\u003eDie Hard puts you in the bare feet of John McClane on the Nintendo Entertainment System, developed by Pack In Video and published by Activision in 1991. Dozens of terrorists hold the building, there are hostages inside including your wife, world class weapons in the wrong hands, and the Los Angeles police know nothing about you or the terrorists yet. You are a tough New York cop, alone, tired and short of time. What makes Die Hard stand out is how seriously it treats that setup: it is less a straight shooter than a game about being badly outnumbered inside somewhere very large.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe terrorists are intelligent. They do not stay in one place and they track you from level to level, so the building keeps shifting around you. A feature called RealVision limits what you see to what your character can see, which turns every corner and corridor into a question. You move between floors by stairs, elevators and air vents, using them to escape gunfire or to arrive somewhere nobody expected you. Explosive weapons include Uzis, flash bombs, C4 explosives, a rocket launcher and more, and ammunition is worth spending carefully. Die Hard also has multiple endings, so a run can close in more than one way and there is a reason to come back and try again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDie Hard keeps its following because the tension is real: being hunted through a tower by enemies who move on their own still feels tense long after the hardware stopped being new. Players also like how much of the film's spirit survives the translation to a one player console game. For collectors, Die Hard is one of the more ambitious licensed games of its era on the Nintendo Entertainment System and a cartridge that always gets picked up and looked at.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenre:\u003c\/strong\u003e Action Adventure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e NTSC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Year:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1991\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDeveloper:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pack-In-Video\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCartridge Only: No Box or Manual\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease note that this listing is for the \u003cstrong\u003egame cartridge only\u003c\/strong\u003e.
