Robocop (cpc 464)

[Thunderwolf666]

All you fancy rich kids with your colour monitors. Spare a thought for us paupers with green screens :( Still, at least we didn't have to hook it up to the TV like those peasant Speccy owners.

I remember getting this, and was so pissed that it wasn't like the arcade game. It was ok though. And is it just me, or did Ocean Software have a habit of making most of their film licenses into platformers? Robocop, Batman, Total Recall, Darkman, Cobra, Addams Family, Hook, there are probably more but I can't remember them. Only ones I remember that didn't have platformers were Short Circuit and Highlander.

[sekon2008]

Omg the hours i spent on this . clss cant believe i forgot the music

[markyboy4466]

did anyone else spend hours trying to get up those steps at the beginning of the level, or was it just me lol

[jetsetbob]

Ahah! i have just run my WinAPE in order to check this :D but i spent only few seconds, i think the problem is the lack of a key to jump or to climb...

@markyboy4466

No I did as well, hehe.

[DAVIDRCGRAY]

graphics are not bad, far better than the NES version.

[elemekutuna]

i played it on my amstrad .

good old days

i was a kid then

thanx for sharing this

[andyukmonkey]

i was about 4 years old when i got this, lol. I always plumped for the cheat too because i sucked.

[pencilman12]

i think the game is very old

[andyukmonkey]

1987 i believe

[ukmarkh]

Quality game, the programmers did well with this one... the best 8-bit version by far.

[rainxxxx]

Dude this is legendary, had this on the 6128 plus, so many memories. If u by any stroke of luck know of anyone to have played ninja remix then i wud like to get in touch- i got stuck on a level about 18 yrs ago n it still bothers me...

[andyukmonkey]

ive not even heard of ninja remix, sorry

[andyukmonkey]

Ive never played the Arcade version. I did play an amiga game with robocop in a was amazed that he could jump in it when you couldn't in this version, lol.

[RICO1CAPRA]

yeah ive played the arcade version. it was pretty sweet

[JokoStudios]

i have one!!!

[mackie127]

the music in the arcade version was quality

[emjay2005]

Great stuff Andy :)

Linked to them via CPC Zone :D

[andyukmonkey]

is there a difference?

[batman877]

The 128k version (ie. disk version) had some digitised speech such as "Robocop!" and "Serve the Public Trust" - it sounded pretty good at the time!

[andyukmonkey]

ah right, yeah. The tape is 128k too if you happen to have a 128k machine. The disk version would work with 64k too. (and i do own a disk drive)

[kanfor]

by the way, i prefeer the disk version :)

[PersianPaladin]

Lol. Classic. I remember buying this game when it first came out all those years ago. Great nostalgia seeing it again. Thanks for uploading.

[andyukmonkey]

I think my camera ran out of memory before i finished the level.

I thought it got it all, but nevermind,
