Few games on the TurboGrafx are genuinely awful. Vigilante is, easily, one of those games. It is a repetitive game that relies on the worst tricks in beat-em-ups, even to beat the first level, only to face several other bosses that can ignore your attacks (and, as an extra F U, regenerate health).

There is nothing redeeming about a game like this, with bland visuals and undercooked gameplay. Vigilante is a perfect example of a game designed to bleed you dry in the arcade, with little effort added to make it a viable home port.

I hate everything about this game, with every fiber of my being.
