Let's be blunt about this: Dredd vs Death is a bad game, where the implementation flaws -- for example, the civilians you have to rescue from zombies repeatedly get stuck behind garbage cans, or being sent into a prison full of vampires with only a pistol and a few rounds where you hope that AI judges die so you can loot their ammo -- are so blatant that you often miss the vast design flaws. The whole concept of taking the decades-long Judge Dredd mythos and turning it into a tedious zombie-killing game, while making the Dark Judges look about as scary as a pack of girl guides is a huge missed opportunity.
Yet, at the same time, it's also rather fun. The first part where you're arresting perps in Mega-City goes to show just what the game could have been like if they hadn't copped out for the sake of making it simple enough to run on consoles, and just seeing some of the Mega-City locations and characters -- even if you're repeatedly shooting zombies with poor AI -- is still an entertaining experience. Beyond that, some of the mini-games are better than the levels in the main game story.
Overall it's hard to recommend to those who aren't Judge Dredd fans, but for $5 it's a cheap few hours of gaming and there probably won't be another Judge Dredd game for some time.
P.S. Why I can't I type space into the review window? It ignores my space bar so I had to type this in another program and cut-and-paste.
