We loved this game. It really sucked you into it back then with the story, music, emotion, humor, realism, sound effects, graphics. An outstanding experience!
Man, I remember playing this when I was about 9 or 10, and having no f'n idea what I was doing. Part of the problem was not having the booklet with all of the proper penal codes, and this was long before game FAQs existed. 30 years later, I'd love a revival of this series. Something akin to LA Noire but maybe in a more contemporary setting.
You could always write sierra and ask for tips. I remembering getting stuck on the pentagram part. I mailed them a letter asking for help and they did respond a few weeks later.
Great game. Got my copy from a k-mart bargain bin in 1997. I remember writing sierra because I couldn’t get to the crime scene at 1:03:18. Apparently you had to stop perfectly and get out of the car which took me forever to do.
Glad I'm not the only one who picked up on his distinct musical style during that funky opening sequence! I was delighted to see his name in the credits.
I booked Brian Forbes with 12025, (possession of a concealed weapon) that works as well, even though it would really require multiple codes, as he's not in control of his faculties, attacks a police officer, and has the concealed weapon. You can try to get him to take the breathalyzer too, but it will tell you his problems go beyond alcohol.
I too have always booked the crazy guy under 12025 because of the knife you find on him. I never thought to use 05150 because it's listed under "Vehicle Code" in the manual, which I assumed you only use for driving violations.
It makes sense if you have heard songs about "5150". It's a real reference to a mental health hold in the California Welfare and Institutions Code. I think the manual is intentionally vague on this point to see if people get the reference. Perhaps somebody liked Van Halen.
It's not quite as dark as Open Season. In this game, the serial killer is a cross dressing psychopath based on Jeffrey Dahmer. Not only this, but a lot of his character is borrowed from The Silence of the Lambs, which came out only two years before the game in 1991. Not only this, but in the first scene of the game, you find the body of a pre pubescent boy perforated with 9mm slugs tossed in a dumpster. In my opinion, that's more disturbing than any of the satanical stuff that was in PQ3. Not that it's a bad game, just that it's not as gripping as Police Quest Open Season. In my opinion.
Jon Anderson I guess. To me though Open Season is such a different style of game compared to previous Sierra games that it feels weird to compare it to its predecessors.
I was always fascinated by the Police Quest series, though I never really played a single game. I was more into Quest for Glory and the Larry series at that time... Great music on this...and so nice to see this gameplay
Same here, the first two were just a bit more "fun" and had a better look. The more "photo semi-realistic" aspect here is nice, but was never a fan of the "point and click" interface of the Sierra Adventure games as opposed to typing the commands and this one just got a bit too "gritty" and a bit too involved in the administrative aspects of police work. You spend the first good chunk of the game doing paper work. Marie getting attacked was also a bit too dark of a slant on things.
34 year old nostalgia here. I liked 1 and 3, 2 was kind of dull for me. I know ur chasing Jesse but it felt different than the other 2. Also loved KQ4, LSL1-3, and a slew of others. Whether they were point and click or type the command...i wish they still made games like this.
Man I never got to play 1-2 but my uncle bought this game when it came out like 30 years ago I’m 35 now but now about I’m about to make a career in law enforcement I felt the inspiration back then
I bought all the police quest games when they came out (actually 90% of all Sierra On-Line games). PQ 3 was the most frustrating, not because it was hard, but because I had the infamous game killing courtroom bug!
I remember this game but I don't remember having to type in case numbers and other numbers all the time. Taking notes playing this game must be imperative
The case numbers and arrest codes were Sierra's way of implementing copy protection - you needed these codes from the printed manual that came with the game.
I loved this game as a kid/teen. The only thing that is a bit much is the "good" ending. That Sonnys wife is okay is nice, but the "We Have A Baby" is faar to much soap opera for me 😅
If you make up the photofit of the bushy-bearded guy at the beginning of the game, you still get the old lady saying "that's him! etc etc" (even though she's not actually there) - evidently Sierra thought that people wouldn't play about like that and only wrote one script.
We always used to go to Egghead software in Maryland. I remember buying Life and Death, it came with a surgical mask and latex gloves, and Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade, the action game not the adventure game. I don't think when that game came out that the adventure game was made yet. We had a Vendex computer, man it was pretty neat growing up in those times. I remember when I had a 30mb hard drive, and just to install Mechwarrior 2 meant that I had to delete all my other games. (that was back in the DOS 6.22 days). Most of my 3.5" floppy disks still work, but just about all of the 5 1/4" disks are non-working.
Every time they call Sonny "Officer" (especially after he's back in Plain Clothes) makes me want to reach through the monitor and shake them. He's a DETECTIVE, dammit!
It's the Roland MT-32 sound module. They're getting fairly pricey today on the used market due to scarcity. You could set the sound in the installation to use MT-32 with the real sound effects with sound Blaster, or you could set it so that even the MT-32 handled the sound effects as well as the music.
This game went over my head. I couldn't understand shit. I was 12 at the time so I had to stick with Lucasarts games like Indiana Jones, Monkey island etc. They were much easier lol
I'm still trying to figure out how Morales got the promotion in the first place, considering she was such a problem officer and you even pretty much put her on report at the beginning of the game.
@@Ambaryerno funny enough i think the ending explains this as you know one guy in bonds department was investigating her the promotion could of been a mere trap for her to drop her guard overconfidence kills and if i gotten a promotion out of the blue and i know i did nothing to deserve it probably would raise a red flag the cop in question could of been on to her about the drugs too but needed a way to trick her into dropping her guard and i think this is what happened here...if she been a tiny bit bright and realized this i have no doubt the drug dealers plan would of gone without a hitch and bonds would of either failed the case or end up dead the cop investigating her took great personal risk doing this and the department too because that very much could of happened luckily Morales iq isent there so gg
Do you know what happens if you show the army recruiter the military star you find on the ground? Is it even necessary to show him Bains military record, what does that help you accomplish/do, other than him just giving you a diagnosis on his personality.
@@stepheno9569That's right! This is how the music was supposed to sound, though few people back then shelled out the big money for the MPU-401 interface along with an MT-32.
I think you get a game over later on, like if you don’t ticket the guy for impeding traffic then you can’t make a copy of morales key at the mini mall.
There's three dogs: dumpster chihuahua, the backyard dog at the crack house, the dog sniffing K9. The drug sniffing K9 is not in this playthrough but if you play the game, you go outside and then the police dog goes in and alerts you toward the remote and the fireplace.
Hmm I just got this on dosbox v0.74 but new to using it. My game doesn't sound as nice: There are sounds playing in your video that don't play in mine, and it seems like you have little music bits here and there that don't play in mine either. any suggestions to tweak music/sound? Also, I can't seem to get it to go to 4:3 ratio even forcing desktop settings :P Thx if anyone can help! I remember getting this for my birthday as a kid, such awesome nostalgia now that I'm 36 :)
Sierra games should have install.exe where you can setup your sound card. Soundblaster should work and Dosbox emulates it well. You can get the correct screen ratio by editing the .conf file found from your start menu under Dosbox.
Richard K now the fun part. Munt does not come with the mt-32 ROM files. You need to hunt those down. I found mine in a wing Commander forum that was listed in the description of a wing Commander you tube videos. Download and save those. In DOS box set midi to 1 in the config file. Follow the path for munt on where to put your room files so munt can find it
How would Jessie be standing on the porch of the crackhouse with Michael if he had died awhile back? Wasn't this crack cocaine ring established after his imprisonment and his death following his escape?
The car, including the interior looks just like a 1987-1993 Ford Mustang SSP. They were designed for the California Highway Patrol, from which Jim Walls retired from. That's a 2-door 4-seat car, but the back seat is useless. They were most commonly found in highway patrol/state police use who wanted a fast car and did mostly traffic enforcement. I don't think they would normally arrest and transport somebody in one, they'd have to call up another unit with a 4-door, e.g. Ford LTD Crown Vic or Chevy Caprice.
Yeah I remember thinking it was very strange for California to be using Japanese coupes for patrol cars instead of the Ford LTD or Chevy Impala 4 door sedans like every other PD used at the time 😂
@@straightpipediesel Yes you're right! But when I was younger, it appeared to be a two door Honda Accord to me. But now that I see the SSP Mustangs it makes sense.
I found out sometimes showing the judge the clipping and the picture doesn't work for some reason. instead she says "I wish I were convinced" I guess you have to also turn some things into evidence at the station for it to work..............and it crashes the game, she never stops saying it/it doesn't let you past it.
Reaches hospital at 1455 Drives home, reaching it at 2200. My man's got a 16 hour round trip commute? Leaves house at 1300 Arrives at station at 1306 ...what the actual fuck.

@@thesnare100 If you're holding up traffic and causing a line then, yeah, you can pulled over. (Unless you're farm equipment and ate incapable of going faster.)

They don't exist today. In most states, the things that they hold up to your face and tell you to blow in are not admissible in court, they are only used as a preliminary screen. There, the only breath test admissible is through a gas chromatograph that's usually fixed, because it's large, sensitive and needs gas tanks for calibration. The older model of the most popular brand, Datamaster, looks similar to the one in the game.
I know the game is supposed to be a bit of a simulation, But it lacks the fun of the first two games. It's not even technically accurate to put the sergeant officer on duty so soon after his wife is assaulted. Add the photographic work instead of artistic liberty's, doesn't stand up to the previous games.
I played a number of Sierra games in my youth but this wasn't one of them; playing it for the first time only recently, it comes off as dry and bland. I was never a big fan of Police Quest, but even the first game had a little more flavor than this.
This writing... (47:37) 2:22 Genre: Fantasy. 12:55 Subduing. 35:001:52:52 Acceptable targets. 1:02:30 1:19:39 F. Nostalgia. That's pretty much all this series has these days.
Buggy as hell. Right at the end and can't enter the court for a search warrant, all that time wasted. Good guide though, obviously didn't follow it to the letter.
there was a way to screw that up, as I recall, my uncle did it, if you show her some stuff to early, you can't go forward. Was like that in other sierra games too, like in SQ2, if you didn't get the glass cutter to cut yourself out of the glass case, you were sol, you had to restore to an eariler save and get it.

He did. He’s even credited with the soundtrack here.
Glad I'm not the only one who picked up on his distinct musical style during that funky opening sequence! I was delighted to see his name in the credits.
Thanks this brings back so many memories when I was a kid. I remember my favorite part was continually shooting that crazy guy in the water haha!

what if we could have some neural net based games made like these in 2020?
At one point I kept crashing in the police car during a conversation, because I was speeding, XD
wasn't able to finish the game
Care to do the VGA version of the second game?
That's already done... it doesn't exist.
Too bad he didn't have a cool sidekick. Pretty snazzy art after 1 & 2. Actually, snazzy as heck.
@52:28 "Gotta take care of some woman stuff." What's that mean? Does she have to change her tampon and put on some makeup?
12:08
1:33:50
Crowd control?
Mustn't they be in UNIFORM for that?
as stated in the game the LPD is understaffed so they can use whoever is on the street and on duty at a moment
28:58 portable breathalyzers didn’t exist back then??? Really????
They don't exist today. In most states, the things that they hold up to your face and tell you to blow in are not admissible in court, they are only used as a preliminary screen. There, the only breath test admissible is through a gas chromatograph that's usually fixed, because it's large, sensitive and needs gas tanks for calibration. The older model of the most popular brand, Datamaster, looks similar to the one in the game.
22:55 so what? he is allowed to speeding?
58:16
Maybe it's just me, but if the player is driving at 75 MPH down city streets, shouldn't he at least have the SIREN on!?
I know the game is supposed to be a bit of a simulation, But it lacks the fun of the first two games. It's not even technically accurate to put the sergeant officer on duty so soon after his wife is assaulted. Add the photographic work instead of artistic liberty's, doesn't stand up to the previous games.
So, Sonny looked like Fred Willard all along? Not sure how I feel about that.
I played a number of Sierra games in my youth but this wasn't one of them; playing it for the first time only recently, it comes off as dry and bland. I was never a big fan of Police Quest, but even the first game had a little more flavor than this.
Does anyone know how to gain the maximum points? I managed to gain 450 of 460.
42:00 Is this the same town where Charlie Brown and Peanuts gang grew up? Wa waa waaaa wa wa.... 😄

This writing... (47:37)

12:55 Subduing.
35:00 1:52:52 Acceptable targets.

Nostalgia. That's pretty much all this series has these days.
Should have let Patrolwoman Morales off the hook.
guess you haven't played through the whole game, if it's not shown here, she's no good.
Buggy as hell. Right at the end and can't enter the court for a search warrant, all that time wasted. Good guide though, obviously didn't follow it to the letter.
there was a way to screw that up, as I recall, my uncle did it, if you show her some stuff to early, you can't go forward. Was like that in other sierra games too, like in SQ2, if you didn't get the glass cutter to cut yourself out of the glass case, you were sol, you had to restore to an eariler save and get it.
They updated the graphics on this which makes it shit
This is the original game
I like how you just go around arresting blacks and mexicans. Very realistic!
Oh man... VGA graphics... I wish.
This looks good but I really like the EGA versions graphics, it looks gorgeous.
