comment
Robo Army is a 1991 Beat 'em Up arcade action game developed by SNK.Neo Detroit, 20XX A.D - robots developed by Dr. Fron Jeed are the backbone of security and maintaining peace. But a robot uprising from it's malfunctioning AI causes the robots to overthrow their creators, and soon Neo Detroit is overrun by hostile robots, who began mass-producing themselves and take over every single sector of the city.It's up to two Super Soldiers of the elite unit, the "64th Air Division Robo Army", to save Neo Detroit. Enter Maxima and Rocky, two Cyborg and unstoppable fighting machines (player one and two, in that order), who stood in the way of the dreaded robot army...It's worth noting that Maxima is notably the inspiration of a character from the same name in The King of Fighters, both of them being Cyborg fighters sharing the same name.

Non-Indicative Title: You'd expect the titular "Robo Army" to be the army of hostile robots created by Dr. Jeed, right? Wrong. It's actually the two guys the U.S. military sent to stop them, as explained in the game's opening. Oh, and they're not robots either : they are actually cyborgs.

Defeat Equals Explosion: Most of the mooks and bosses blows up after getting beaten, since they're, you know, machines. And since Rocky and Maxima are mostly machine as well, they do explode as well upon death.

Half the Man He Used to Be
 Robo Army (Video Game) / int_91697559
comment
Half the Man He Used to Be: Due to the enemies in this game being mechanical, sometimes robots will have their entire upper bodies smashed to bits... but continues moving around as a pair of legs carrying half a torso. Also it's slightly harder to see, but landing a chop on any low-level enemies will split them vertically before they explode.

Cyborg: Maxima and Rocky are human soldiers whose bodies are outfitted with robot tech after they're wounded in action. It's less visible with Rocky, who got modified to the point where whatever organic features he had is now replaced with machines, his brain being the only organic part he has left.
