[Amstrad Cpc] Gryzor Longplay

(Ocean, 1987)
Lance and Bill have to rid the Earth of the very H. R. Giger aliens that have invaded it in this excellent conversion of the arcade coin-op Contra. This game boasts superb graphics and really shows off the graphic capabilities of the CPC. Along with some great sound effects the gameplay is also just right and it's a really enjoyable challenge. The 3D sections are quite impressive and it's well worth completing as the ending is hilarious.

[Axelino]

Yep

[thebunnyshed]

This and Renegade had frickin awesome graphics on the CPC. Good to see you complete it. I never managed although I did get to the heart! Damn!

Don't remember the music. Is that 6128 only?

My favourite gun was the beam weapon too

[Axelino]

No, in the title screen you can change (by pressing "esc" ) if you want in game the music or the sound effect!

awesome dude what game are u doing next ?

[Axelino]

Well, i don't know at the moment, my dream is switchblade but it is very hard and long, i hope one day to complete it.

I've tried prehistorik 1&2 and both games slowdown a lot and this is annoying to me, maybe the next game will be a platform.

Felt more like a kick to the balls.

I love how the ending advertises a soundtrack, yet the game only had ONE FREAKING SONG....

My goodness. I played this SO much on my Amstrad as a wee boy. I was totally enthralled with it, and shocked as hell when the World exploded at the end... But watching this long play I am struck by how SHORT the game actually was... Back then it felt like I was playing for HOURS when I finally got to the end.... Of course, I probably had been (starting again and again and again till I completed it)... I managed to get to the end twice in all the time I played it. Brilliant game!
