C64 - Chase H.Q. 2: Special Criminal Investigation

[xDeFRASHKatx]

when i was a kid my amstrad and spectrum 'buddies' teased me at school for the blocky graphics in this version.........i told them to fuck off.

There is a cheat for this game which allowes you to fly an attack helicopter

I remember reading the ultra-high "Sizzler" rating for this game in Zzap! 64 and rushing out and purchasing a cartridge version. Even as a 10 year old I was soooo disappointed. This game stinks, the gameplay is BORING, the soundtrack repetitive and all the traffic is the same car on each level! Turbo Charge was WAY better.

God this tune sounds like music from 'Flimbo's Quest' perhaps a missing level or something, lol...

[TheBobyard]

oooooooooooooooooookkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkk amiga way betteer

[edzzzwin]

I bought the cartridge in Amsterdam! :P And it works excellent in my Commodore 64.

[evilleaper]

@edzzzwin yeah i had it on cart in around 1990 i think it was

[KongoXIIV]

Kicks the originals ass...This is what you got when a game made for the C64 WAS made for the C64, not a spectrum port. :-/

@KongoXIIV

You Sir, earn a big thumbs up.

[zakkattakk89]

man i havn't played this since i was about 5. haha i love the way the c64's music sounds... my fav music from c64 days is speedball loading tune.

[jpalmz1978]

nice one....i thought the gfx were improved by cartridge xtra memory.....yeah music is kind of funny and doesnt match the game :-))

[edzzzwin]

The wrong bandwidth messes up the graphics in this video.

[bigboyusa3]

puke me!!!

[jpalmz1978]

had this on cartridge for the c64....nice gfx for the machine (mainly due to the extra memory of the cartridge option)

[edzzzwin]

@jpalmz1978 , I like SCI on the C=64 to. But there isn't any extra memory used the improve the graphics, because the game also is put on disk and tape and those versions look & play exactly the same. The game actually uses the same game engine as US Gold's Turbo Out Run from 1989 on the C-64, btw.

Turbo Charge from System 3 has much better graphics and that one is available on disk and tape only, although a prototype of a Turbo Charge cartridge is rumoured.

Is it me,or the music,while nice,doesn't fit with the rest of the game at all?

It sounds like it belongs to a platform game or something.

This must be running on the C64 Turbo Outrun engine. The games look pretty much identical.

[slinkyskunk]

The graphics and speed of this game are sooooo much better than the original Chase HQ C64 port

[SethSquall]

Same here. I found this today. For years I've been going, "ARGH what's that game I used to play".

[SthlmHenrik]

@SethSquall Same here :) I only remember calling it "car chase" in Swedish :) The whole thing about driving a sports car and shooting at the same time just blew my mind... :)

[DontSoakTheRoach]

classic...first game i ever played...this started it all...fuck me i hated those bikers with their grenades!
