This week, your prime directives include celebrating Robocop's 35th Anniversary with a look back at the classic NES tie in from 1988!

Conveniently, this is coming right on the heels of the new trailer for Robocop: Rogue City!

It's one of the most iconic action franchises from the 1980s, and as such it spawned a slew of video game tie ins. Surprisingly, MOST of those games were actually very well received! But can the same be said for fans of Officer Alex James Murphy who want to relive the excitement in the modern day?

Before we're set loose on the streets of Detroit, we catch up on our PS Plus gaming with a look at Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, The Overwatch 2 Beta, and more!
