Atari Lynx prices, all games & how to spot a fake

A side-scrolling cop brawler with a Dirty Harry pastiche premise and not much beneath it.

Knight Technologies developed it and Atari published it in 1992. The contemporary VideoGames & Computer Entertainment review is unusually useful on why it exists: the writer had been asked by a friend for a Lynx game “where the player controls a guy with a gun” and found Atari’s catalogue “strangely thin in this particular genre”. Dirty Larry filled that hole and little else.

The same review is worth quoting on quality: “not much more than an extremely simplistic kill-’em-all contest”, lacking the humour that carried Kung Food or the name recognition of Batman Returns — though it praised the Xenophobe-style stereo placement of the sound effects. Single-player, never re-released, priced accordingly.

What the press said at the time

“Though it's generally a well-designed game — as evidenced by the careful Xenophobe-style stereo placement of each sound effect — Dirty Larry: Renegade Cop is not much more than an extremely simplistic kill-'em-all contest. It doesn't have the zany sense of humor that carried Kung Food.”
