Mega Drive version
Unlock all weapons
Pause the game and press . Now during gameplay, pressing +++ will cycle through every weapon in the game[1].
Get 54 lives
Pause the game and press . You will be taken to a special room with director and programmer John Botti telling you how to perform the weapons cheat above. Finishing the room will lead you back to stage 1[1].
End stage
Pause the game and press . This will end the current stage and start the next.
Run faster and jump higher
Pause the game and press [1].
Immortality
Using the jump higher cheat above, start the first stage, move to left of the screen, jump and hold . You will be taken to a special "immortality room" with a photograph of the developers. "Finishing" this room takes you back to the first stage, this time with immortality[2].
Fall through the floor
Pause the game and press . Now pressing HOLD will cause RoboCop to fall through the floor (which for much of the game means he'll die). Being damaged appears to turn this code off.
Turn the blue jumpsuit enemies into women
Several games from this period were requested to cover up women's bare skin or replace them as enemy characters entirely. It is not known if the developers of RoboCop Versus The Terminator were asked to do something similar for this character[1].
Debug mode
In addition to showing details about the game, this offers an alternative means of the "falling through floor" code above, a level select and a "photograph freeze" mode, in which holding START stops the entire game (making it easier to take screenshots).
