Oh Night Stalker, the classic 1970s TV show that featured Darren McGavin as a reporter who hunts down vampires in Las Vegas, how cool it is to see a video game based on your exploits. Oh wait, this isn't about the show that influenced Buffy the Vampire Slayer? Okay, maybe it's based on the underappreciated (and cancelled) 2005 TV series of the same name. No? Well damn, I guess this Night Stalker is all on his own. Battling giant spiders, bats and ... robots? Oh, you've got to be kidding me. Why not just name this game Logan's Run or something, they shouldn't sully the name of a classic series like Night Stalker.

So here's what I gather from this game's cover art: everything bad seems to happen at night. When it's dark the robots come out, giant spiders attack and bats are on the prowl. If all these bad things come out at night, then maybe that's a sign you should take some Ambien and only go outside when the sun is out. Or better yet, move to a place where there's no risk of giant spiders and bats. On the other hand, if robots are going to attack then there's nothing you can do about it. Especially if they are those cheesy 1950s sci-fi robots that have lasers and speak in broken English. There's nothing scarier than being chased by Robby the Robot, take that from a man who has experience.
