Amiga Longplay [369] Jim Power - Mutant Planet

http://www.recordedamigagames.org

Played By: ScHlAuChi

There is one reason why i did this LongPlay - and that reason is not the dull and often frustrating gameplay.
Unsurprisingly it is the music by Amiga legend Chris Huelsbeck that saves this game from being garbage.
The music is really what drives this game and is kind of wasted for a medicore title like this.

Its also worth to mention that there is a PcEngine/TurboGrafx version of Jim Power that has a fully remade CD
soundtrack - its worth to hunt down the game just for this :)

I still can never ever understand why someone would prefer the Atari ST sound. The Atari ST has one of the weakest sound chips ever built, which is easily outperformed by many 8 bit systems, including C64, Game Boy and NES. I mean, it's just square waves! No variety in sound shapes, nothing. It's almost as "old skool" as the horrible PC speaker... BLECH!

@porcorosso81 Thats rubbish talk!!! You talk like the new age "gamers" that believe the most technicaly advanced processor or graphics chip will deliver better games! Its about the feeling dude. The tunes Atari ST has given us are beyond awesomeness. And being inferior from other sound chips makes it even MORE awesome. Fine examples: Mad Max, Lethal Xcess, Wings of Death, Stormlord... The magic produced cannot be compared even with the legendary Amiga. Both different, both awesome!

@Solosap As it turns out, there is a recording of an orchestral arrangement floating about somewhere. I believe it's in the vidya intarweb playlist. I'll link directly to the file, but well.. youtube.

I love to playing all levels of this game just for music, I have been finished it maybe 10 times because it's a really nice arcade game, great gameplay and music of course it's so PURE and UNIQUE!

Damn, Hulsbeck, you never, NEVER disappoint! :D

@porcorosso81 I think the main thing that people like about the atari ST version is that something THAT crappy just played a great soundtrack such as this without messing it up too bad. It could have been like the Amstrad version that had NO music whatsoever.
