An interesting "Virtual Magazine" that mixes Max-Payne style comic panels with Full Motion Video. The disc image is in Bin/Cue format. The program won't run on 64-bit Windows but will work in a virtual machine like XP Mode or the like, and contains a Macintosh version as well. As long as your virtual machine thinks the virtual drive you've mounted the game to is it's own main disc drive, it will work fine, and you can also burn the image to a CD for less software hassle.

"TWO YEARS ON THE FORCE...THREE MORE BEFORE PAROLE" - John Copeland spends his waking hours in a blue uniform, fighting crime on the Virtual Police Force. Jo, his boss, is a tough cop who sees through his eyes and hears through his ears, directing Copeland through dangerous missions from her virtual reality relay station. At the end of the day, Jo goes to her apartment on 5th street...Copeland goes to his home...jail. Pursuing the smugglers of biological software (called wetware), Copeland stumbles on the nastiest hitman ever to face the Metro. His name is Viktor, an "Extractor," and what Copeland sees next is likely to cost him his life.

MAIN STORY - The main story is a video comic book with fantastic artwork, live action scenes and interactivity, allowing you to visually affect certain scenes by determining the action of the hero, John Copeland, Virtual Cop.

CHARACTER INTERVIEWS - At any point, you may browse a large list of questions to ask the Characters of Virtual Cop. For example the first question is "Is a Virtual Cop a Real Cop?" By Clicking on icons of Copeland, Jo, Kallid or Dan, you will get a different response.

COP FILES - Cop files contain a sleu of context-sensitive exhibits, allowing you to explore the world of Virtual Cop. Loaded with blueprints, tactile simulations, articles, mug shots and terminology, you get an opportunity to go deeper into the storytelling process.

Suggested Strategy - Each component of Virtual Cop (Main Story, Character Interviews, Cop Files) contain part of the story. For the most complete story experience, we recommend going through all three components of this on-going series. Unlike traditional media, Cyber-Mag provides a richer understanding of the story and its characters, while providing a comprehensive world-view, which will continue to unfold over future episodes.

Amidst a disastrous mission, virtual officer John Copeland finds himself "off the net," free and clear of his virtual link to the cops. Before him stands arch villain Viktor, a deadly wetware extractor no one has seen and lived to tell about. Faced with execution by Viktor, Copeland betrays his team leader Jo, and goes on the run, donning his dark and secret alias, "Angel." Trusting that Jo's feelings for him will restrain her from throwing his termination switch. Copeland sets a death trap for Viktor. Capturing the extractor's original target, Barth, who is enhanced with experimental military wetware, Copeland confronts Viktor as well as his own dark past.
