[edit] Plot
The daughter of a high ranking Grant City official (a Senator) is kidnapped and Jack Slate must rescue her.
[edit] Gameplay
The game is very similar to Dead to Rights II and retains the series' signature usage of bullet time, disarming moves and the ability to use an attack dog. Similar to the sequel, this game no longer retains the original's minigames and heavily favours action instead.
[edit] Critical Reception
Dead to Rights: Reckoning has been criticized for it's overly repetitive gameplay, which involved running around clearing rooms punctuated with an occasional boss fight; poor camera and controls; recycling levels from Dead to Rights II and a poorly conceived multiplayer function built around auto-aim. [1] The game received a 5.7/10 from Gamespot and a similar score of 54% from GameRankings.[2]
