Level 3 - Subway | Futurama | Walkthrough, No Commentary, PS2

The *Futurama* video game, released in 2003 for the PlayStation 2 and Xbox, is a delightful if somewhat flawed, interactive extension of the beloved animated series. Developed with significant input from the show's creators, including Matt Groening and David X. Cohen, and featuring the original voice cast, the game successfully captures the show's signature humor and narrative style. While gameplay mechanics received mixed reviews, the story, which involves the Planet Express crew traveling back in time to prevent Mom from turning Earth into a warship, is considered a highlight, even inspiring a DVD special feature. The game itself is a 3D platformer with third-person shooter elements, allowing players to control Fry, Bender, Leela, and briefly Zoidberg, each with unique abilities. Level 3, aptly named "Subway," plunges players into a grimy, futuristic underbelly of New New York, with Philip J. Fry at the helm. This installment is a quintessential blend of the game's core mechanics, focusing on third-person shooting and platforming as Fry navigates a decaying subway system. The level is masterfully designed with four distinct, linear segments, each presenting a unique challenge. Players will traverse abandoned tunnels and platforms, dodging hazardous black goo spilled by Bender and appreciating the desolate atmosphere created by derelict ticket booths and flickering lights. Combat is a central element, with enemies ambushing Fry from hidden alcoves and broken walls. Armed with his trusty laser pistol, players must strategically aim and move to fend off these attackers, with ammunition scattered throughout the environment for replenishment. Interspersed with the shooting are platforming sequences, requiring precise jumps over gaps and environmental hazards to avoid falling into danger. Beyond the immediate action, the "Subway" level encourages exploration through the collection of three hidden Nibblers and 75 money units, often found within destructible crates. This level perfectly encapsulates the *Futurama* game's charm, offering a fun and engaging experience that feels like a true, albeit slightly challenging, adventure in the *Futurama* universe.
