Amstrad Cpc tribute - Robocop - (with sound)

[VincentGreece]

masterpiece, great soundtrack

[JayArgonaut]

No sampled speech?

[shatterhandbr83]

The music sounds a lot like the MSX version which I used to play and love back when I was a child.

It indeed an awesome piece of music. I loved that game when I was a kid, finished it like a dozen of times, even though the game looked like shit for an MSX game

[bobv6]

this is goin back 20 years or so and i can still remember the awful music lol , great game , back in the days when it took forever to load a cassette video game , superb

[vhsanddvds74]

This in game music is wicked.

[Jermyn78]

I was disappointed when I first played this as I was expecting a conversion of the arcade game!

[StephenSuttie1974]

Cool music. Nice wee game.

[manahhh]

Mike lamb, Dawn Drake, Jonathan Dunn ,and others ocean´s best pogrammers

nostalgic times

[cv643d]

The music in the Gameboy version is great too!

[kanfor]

OMG!

This is AWESOME!

I´m crying!

[Link8312]

I loved this game.

However, the only version I had was not only cracked, but also patched for infinite health, and this cheat could not be disabled...

[AnthonyJFrame]

Music is still kinda funky now listening to it again!

[b1ueocean]

bought this in WHSmith's back in the day for mean £10... was boxed up nice.... loved the music :)

CPC464 colour was my first computer. Thanks to it breaking down once (ended up reading the book and all the programming stuff) I now write computer software :p

[neuraljam]

omg, I remember this! I loved this game, the Amstrad CPC 464 was my first computer, love it heh

[macdeath69]

this game was Finishable, unlike many CPC games...

Music was great and graphix too...

as kickass as the movie.

[vertiis]

Ha ha, i remember this game, fuck, no ED-209 at the end of the level, you just had to survuve to the end!! Programming this into 128K was tough

[b1ueocean]

programming all of these 8-bit systems period was tough... no C/C++ or Java... just Z80 Assembly Language :p

[schnubbel76]

the way the bad guys fall out of window after getting killed, looks absolutely the same way like the guys falling down in "Batman" on CPC. It's also from Ocean.

Wonder, how many other games they made with the same routine.

btw: good ol' times.

[magutipeluti]

Sure, both games were programmed by Dawn Drake & Jonathan Dunn...this is the way that makes those games use the same graphic style.

[arekfu]

amstrad had really difficult games!!!!

[coubette]

Lol all thos old games omg !!! I remember ^^ the sound was weird but we were so happy to play with xD

[Telum27]

One of the best amstrad games ever and amazing music! You must listen the full title song.

[dazzadooby]

I had a CPC6128 and loved this game although it was very easy. I also amazed my mates with my ability to complete Thundercats with more lives that I started with. Although that was a speccy port, it was incredibly challenging.

[khisanth75]

top movie license this on the superb amstrad,shows a how a film tie in should be done.

[FloweryBee]

When I was 7 - my dad got me my first computer (amstrad cpc 464) green screen aswell! Never saw colour games until I had the megadrive some 5 years later.. But this game was rock-solid, music is fantastic. I never ever completed an amstrad game. But the long load-time is well worth the wait for the robocop title-screen alone! :D

[81runFROMwhat]

does anyone remember when this first came out and it came in massive box? opened it up and there was one cassette inside! i love this game.

[TheSaintST1]

But I remember that they were part of a wave of Ocean Games movie licences that were absolutely amazing - Robocop, Batman the Movie, Total Recall. I loved the music to Batman the Movie - thank god for emulators...!!! - outside of Ocean, Ghostbuster 2 was ace!

[dubzy81]

they used this music in a tv ad right? and on and on and on and ariston?

[PsychoJay75]

This was my first computer when I was 10 years old. Brings back a hell of alot of memories. Dont have it anymore but Im still rather nostalgic. I play these games on an Amstrad Emulator on my PC. Good times...

[siresofnothing]

Yep - that music's made me ridiculously nostalgic and happysad. Those were the days.

[quepasofeo]

Amstrad its the best! Born in 80 and have one at my 8s

Butrageño, Goody, Gonzalez, mario bros! the original version.

[eltiomaik]

GOD..I was 6 when my parents bought to my borth a cpc...

[lusitano666diabo]

great game!

[81runFROMwhat]

was anyone else lucky enough to get the one with the big cardboard box? and inside it had the one cassette?

one of the best amstrad games there was.

[bicarbonatoalfredo]

esa musiquita despues de un rato cargando el cassete, ke recuerdos, saludos desde granada

[kyletitterton]

Rugged! Could have watched it all day! The music, the graphics, the gameplay! One of the few Amstrad games I could actually complete. More please...

[Krwler]

I couldnt even complete this 1 lol!

[batman877]

Fantastic clip - the CPC version of Robocop was definately the best of the 8-bits...

[apiticandemore]

I'm going to cry.... this is gorgeous... sweeeeeeeeeeeet times...

[bobfresco]

agreed!

i don't know whether it's nostalgia or not, but THIS was the golden age of gaming...it was awesome! Games today, they're TOO good, and take ages to even learn how to play..these games were simple but awesome.

I wonder if the 9-14 year olds of today will look back in 10-15 years time at today's games and feel the same way we do!!

[323157]

Reading these posts has got me seriously thinking about the effect these games have on people- i literally was overwhelmed just hearing this music!! Given that I dont normally get overwhelmed by anythin short of 4 models naked in a hot tub these days, i wud say its had a profound effect!! Did anyone play ninja remix???

[323157]

im joining in with those tears.

[afuzzyduck]

and on,

and on,

and on,

and on,

and on,

and on,

and on,

etc...

[HBKLIQ]

i always loved the song in this game, batman the movie was class 2! endless hours i spent on that old machine, remember burning rubber

[chriskargbo]

oh this brings me back to my youth. thanks to ever posted this up

[djlink345]

Excellent - When that melody kicks in I love the Amstrad Robocop level one music almost as much as the title sequence - well posted

[turks22]

Amstrad cpc 464 rules! I use to play this game all the time!

[rsuc]

great i owned an amstrad and this game i remembwer the music was ace and it being used in an advert for some washing machine years later!!

[derikasan]

memories, memories, thanks for broadcasting it

[pychoncy]

I played this game a lot on my MSX (although being a ZX Spectrum conversion). It was a bit hit in the late eighties. Robocop and Batman The Movie are the best movie to video game adaptaions of the 8-bit era.

[magutipeluti]

Yes finkster, i love too 8 bit music...and ocean did so well on his age of golden 8 bit.

[finkster101]

Tight, I just watched the whole especially for the music. Love that 8 bit sound. I have a casio vl and it sounds like this.

[jbaudrand]

Thanks for broadcast it!!!! but, please mix sound to mono before posting it to youtube, you will increase mix quality (the drums are to low)

[andyukmonkey]

I maintain that the Amstrad had the potential to be the best home micro of the 80-90's if only more games were of robocop's quality.

[kalateur]

im still remember when i bought the Speccy Version(128k), started to play and after 2 tryings, i finished the game!!

[elquetemonta]

Yeah!
