DOS games: Raptor Call of the shadows (Elite mode)

[LANmineTFC]

This is a DOS game? Pretty slick for DOS. Awesome :D

[marciofernandaheitor]

You can press BackSpace in BUY room to make a LOT of money. =D

[LiquidRequiem]

Omg...brings back so many memories...<333

[621bubble]

I remember myself playing this game when i was like 7.... good old memories coming back :D!

[rttzball]

noob, nice vid. I love this game...

[lullemans72]

i must have been 7 or 8 at the time. there was also a similar game with space ships in outer space, but i cannot recall what that game was called..

[JPDueholmDK]

@lullemans72, Maybe Tyrian 2000?

[lullemans72]

@JPDueholmDK YES! BINGO! thanks for that man!

[magn0z]

I think this was the first game I ever bought :3

[bullmeatt]

my characters name in this was "POWERPOO" me and my bro would play it nonstop every day and we had all the best weapons and tried to get enough score to go passed the 8 digits to see what would happen.. I cant remember if we did or not

[eprod90]

finger always on fire and gogogo! xD

[henrysinaga]

I remember the most expensive weapon, it was a blue laser

[code123ns]

heh... I still remember the sequency in which ships came :)

[AMVDawg]

Back then I only had the demo version... but now thanks to the marvels of the internet I have the full version xD

[irishbowlingteam]

This was the first game I ever played. I was 4 and I could navigate on DOS.

[panays4u]

<3 <3 <3 epic game! :D

[fristytron]

sound fx & music!!!

[fieldy409]

im playing on veteran, my hand hurts.

[DoughboyJonesmk2]

I wish video games were still like this, those were the days...

[Novetrix]

Finally, a video with the MIDI-version of the music. All the other versions I've heard were Ad-Lib.

[tiga2001]

how come it sounds like your midi synthesizer is different. Is that something you can change in DOS-Box?

[omnibusim]

Oh man I used to play this game SO much, I had all the enemy aircraft positions memorized!

[SuperJM9]

I'm on the last level of the DOS version. It's nearly impossible in elite mode, especially the boss at the end.

[tiga2001]

@SuperJM9 Yea, I had to get 5 shields and 5 bombs for the final boss on elite mode, then blast the final boss with twin lasers.

[bigtommygunz]

tis game was fooking sweet!!

[Karasu24]

Ah, those were the days! When this first came out, I was like:  WOW!

[2LTDarcius]

omg... thankyou for posting this... i forgot all about this game after all these years. noobs today have no appreciation for classic badass games like raptor!!

[fragilefreakout]

i'm going to remake this game using the heroes of world war 2 engine... u guys think it's possible?

[TheOrichalcon]

Oh and thumbs up if you used to make it to the endboss with 5 shields and then just ram the son of a bitch to death.

[TheOrichalcon]

The game eventually resolves into a pattern from what I can recall. Even on elite, it ends up being simple to memorise the best routes and simply fly it every time. Watching this now I can remember some of the best paths to take to ensure maximum cash.

[5796John]

that would suck if you smashed into the boss ship :o

[op3l]

omg... good times... good times...

I'd play the demo version OVER AND OVER...

[OdinTheTrueGodOfWar]

god i would kill to play this game again

[ben9dot9]

@OdinTheTrueGodOfWar Try on DotEmu.com you'll find it

[Metalfreakk19]

just cant beat retro shooters

[m14g]

Just hold the fire button and kil everything

[dakkar182]

@DeShaadman woah... I've played Tyrean, but i've never heard about the others. Thanx for the info!!

[batsu300]

looks easy when just see the vid but i remember it took me at least 2 hours for the first stage in elite, and i rember jumped around alot after i beat the final stage in elite.

[bullmeatt]

were can i download this game? used to play it all the time when i was little and also doom lol

my account name was powerpoo lmao i was like 5

[alanmmartini]

@bullmeatt hey dud, i found in my backup the game.

.megaupload /?d=MJ7MN2L8 (just stick the parts together)

It doenst work in a Windows 64 Bits & probably in high resolutions, so maybe you got to put a smaller, but worth =D

cya

[ANNABECKDK]

@alanmmartini why doesn't the link work.

I stuck the word together, i tried adding three W's in the beggining and ending with com but the link still didn't work.

Could you pm me the link or something cus i can't get the one you posted to work

[ANNABECKDK]

@alanmmartini OK i got the link to work and i downloaded the file.

It's a rar file and when i double click on it it tries to play it on windows media player.

How do i get the game to work?

[avobe]

the best game of the apogee

[xionicle]

...That was an awesome game... (I finished the elite level when I was 4...)

[guitarprince08]

i loved this game honestly... hahaaha... those were the days...

[dingyibvs]

Backspace for single lasers!

[defekt2009]

the ingame music is so cool!

[dakkar182]

can please someone tell me of other old games like this? And I mean old.Not new like r-type

[xSpringfieldx]

Im thinking about recreating this for iPhone...

[kirbyksn]

I think this vid's music sounds better than the ones already on youtube.

[kirbyksn]

WOW! You're very good!! Could you upload this game's musics?

[DJRevan]

Does anybody recall the name of the game, which was a horizontal shooter, probably around '95 or '96 and the story was about a COUGAR, who was a pilot, saving the world and stuff(The intro was animated and Stallone made a cameo in it) :) Please, I've been searching in my memories for months now, with no success at all :( I'd appreciate any kindness :)

[coolversionofyou]

@DJRevan tyrian????

[DJRevan]

Tyrian is a vertical shooter :) But thanks for answering!!!

[V0ree]

All of the musics were very cool in the game!

[peace143]

OMG! I miss this game :(

[constipationnow]

LOL i relaly want to make house remix of that track hahahaah

[Majki182]

Total mayhem!

[Burakx]

COOL GAME!

[SaFiUk20]

Cool mate, I love this game :)

[nwpgunner]

+10000

[xionicle]

Good old times...

[GaiaOnline777]

I have a demo cd with tons of games on it. I loved this game. There is a way you can get unlimited money by getting the dumb fire missles exiting to the breifing room selling them and doing it over and over again. lets you have enough money to buy every weapon.

[XHeiko]

That trick was even better to gain more than 5 shields!

[raynor009]

i remember playing this with my friends ahhh good times

[B4ZEoo7]

by the way has anybody the full version for this?

i only got like 8 bravo sector levels and 3 tango levels and thats it. :/

[B4ZEoo7]

hah i still got this game :D

i loved the awesome weapon upgrades in this game, really great game for its time! ;)

[marquis0r]

adlib is "better". more original

[Pommes1983]

Last year I remembered this game and I decided to buy the fullware CD from 3D-Realms and it was no failure. It is still one of the best games ever!

[kroollik]

Used to be one of my favorite games when I was a kid!

[downhillgames]

Word up!

[gyiyg996]

i lost the demo CD that had this on it, along with a bunch of other Apogee and Epic Games titles, like Hocus Pocus and Epic Pinball ,etc.

this is a great game, but tyrian wins my heart out.

[kaargen]

Nice, reminds me of aerofighters.
