C64 Midnight Resistance Levels 6 to 9 + Ending Sequence

Interesting trivia about the C64 version of Midnight Resistance. At some gaming expo in 1990, some cracker stole some disks from the Ocean stand. One of them apparently was the yet unreleased WIP Midnight Resistance, but which contained only five levels instead of nine. Soon thereafter this five level version was spread around by the crackers, and so a large part of the C64 community was under the impression that Ocean never bothered to convert the whole game. -)

I had the version of the game from the Night Moves compilation, which only had the five levels. I was so gutted when I realised (just now!) that I was cheated out of four more levels :(

@WanderlustZero I was under the impression that the version you are referring to (and me in the video description) was not commercially released.

What an epic trip down memory lane to my childhood in the early 80s and early 90s. And what a fantastic sound track too Thanks for the upload.

My tape wasn't a pirate, Dave. I can only imagine that for some reason they put the truncated game on the tape to save space, as there were 2-3 games to a tape, as with most compilations.

Missed this game back in the day, so it's one of those games I've always been meaning to check out but still haven't gotten around to it.

Great to see it here on YT. Looks like a real solid conversion.
