Terminator 2: Judgment Day, also known as T2: The Arcade Game, is a 1991 arcade Rail Shooter developed by Midway Games and an official tie-in to the film, Terminator 2: Judgment Day.Like in the film, players assume the role of the T-800, re-programmed after its capture by the resistance and sent to the past by the human's resistance leader, John Connor, to protect his younger self from the T-1000, an advanced Terminator prototype made of liquid metal and impervious to all damage.Seven stages are available, spanning from the futuristic warzones of 2029 to present-day (1995) Los Angeles. Oddly enough, a two-player mode is also available - the resistance probably sent a backup T-800 alongside the original.The game was ported to multiple platforms, including the Super NES, Game Boy, Sega Genesis, Game Gear, Amiga 500, and MS-DOS as T2: The Arcade Game. In 2023 it got a home arcade release by Arcade 1Up.Not to be confused with any of the Terminator 2: Judgment Day games released by other publishers (mostly LJN Toys) on consoles and home computers.The franchise would release another arcade shooter almost two decades later with Terminator Salvation (Arcade). | |

Multiple Endings | |
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Whether you completely destroy Cyberdyne Systems in the second mission depends on what ending you get: If you destroy all of Cyberdyne's equipment, you get the good ending, indicating that Judgment Day is averted. Leave one piece of equipment intact, and you get the bad ending, indicating that research at Cyberdyne will continue, and that Judgment Day could still happen. Also, John's picture turns red as well. | |

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Video Game) / int_1c8c34de | comment |
Invulnerable Civilians: Subverted with resistance fighters in 2029; if you accidentally kill them, points will be deducted from your bonus score. Sarah and John Connor can be seen running around in a few stages. They couldn't be killed by bullets either (yours, or the police), should they be gunned down they'll fall over for a second before getting back up. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Video Game) / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: The game adds a few additional elements absent in the movie: The first half is set in the future war of 2029, and depicts the player(s) T-800 fighting other enemy robots alongside resistance fighters. As well as the process of them teleporting to the future. There's a massive shootout inside Cyberdyne labs with the player T-800 shooting policemen left and right, unlike the film where they're spooked by the T-800 and sent packing. The steel mill finale has numerous SWAT officers actually making it into the area and trying to arrest John, unlike in the film. And you'll need to gun down everyone. | |

Set Swords to "Stun" | |
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Video Game) / int_259dd888 | comment |
Set Swords to "Stun": The player's T-800 presumably had a Thou Shall Not Kill order from John, just like in the film. And yet the 1995 stages have them shooting at human mooks regularly, where they're presumably just maimed by bullets and explosions (somehow?). | |

Adaptational Badass | |
Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Video Game) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: The T-1000 can take far more punishment than it's cinematic counterpart. For instance, in the film seven shotgun blasts from Sarah sends it staggering backwards, followed by a grenade to the stomach from the T-800 is enough to send it plummeting into the vat of molten steel. In the game it absorbs hundreds of rounds and multiple explosions, shrugs off multiple grenade blasts and keeps on coming until you grab a grenade launcher and blast it into the steel. John and Sarah in the game are almost as durable as Terminators themselves, where they keep moving after getting hit by bullets or explosions. Somehow. | |

Spared by the Adaptation: By default, characters killed in the film (like the foster parents, and Miles Dyson) don't die in the game, due to being Adapted Out. While the game ends with the T-1000 getting melted alive, there's no indication that the T-800 decides to follow suit in order to complete his mission. The game just ends at that point. | |

Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Video Game) / int_bdc94cd9 | comment |
Compressed Adaptation: Despite the expansion in the game's first half which is set entirely in 2029, most of the game's second half seems to skim over major events of the movie, going straight for the action scenes and leaving out most of the film's character interactions and development. To be fair, it's made for arcades. | |
