This worked to the advantage of the game, which offers some brief, but skipable cutscenes to setup the situation that you need to survive the onslaught of battling an army of humanoid robots. The game itself sort of follows the movie, focusing more on the setting and the action than the characters and plot. It’s noteworthy to point out that the head of Play Mechanix, George Petro, was the principle developer on Midway’s Terminator 2: Judgment Day, thus TS ended up “staying in the family,” so to speak. Ignoring Big Buck Hunter, Terminator Salvation was the first light-gun gun to come out of Play Mechanix since they developed Aliens Extermination for GlobalVR in 2006 It would also be the first light-gun title (again, outside of BBH) to carry the Raw Thrills name since they had released Target Terror in 2004. Doing something that you can only do in arcades, their unique arcade edition was released 10 months later, and it quickly became one of the best performing games on the scene. The home console video game didn’t fare any better, but Play Mechanix and Raw Thrills didn’t let those factors deter them and they continued development on the game. The Terminator Salvation film was released in May 2009 as the 4th entry into the franchise, but while it tried a different approach to the series, it struggled as both critics and viewers panned it. The Terminator franchise is one of the few Hollywood properties that offers up such action on a platter, where it has been translated into both video & pinball games over the years. The concept of killer humanoid robots makes for an easy translation into the arcade format, particularly where light-gun games are concerned.
