The Die Hard series was originally a hugely popular movie franchise, but since the conquering of the cinematic world, Fox decided it might be good idea to create a video game based on action hero John McClane (Bruce Willis). Back in 1996, Fox Interactive made their first delve into the industry with Die Hard Trilogy. Such was the success that four years, a sequel was to be born. The game? Die Hard Trilogy 2: Viva Las Vegas.
While there is a new Las Vegas based story line to get stuck into, game play remains highly similar to its predecessor. Once again, DHT2 is actually three games in one. You can choose to be the third person action hero, the shooting sniper, or the mad taxi driver, dependant entirely on your own preferences.
