SHADOW OF THE BEAST 2 CRACK INTRO

Ultra rare crack intro for Shadow of the Beast 2 by Psygnosis.
Code and music by Buromaschinen.
Sorry for the lame quality of the video (and audio, my brother did that ugly noises on the background, sucker!) but I had to shoot my 1084s with my camera to put this online as I don't have an .ADF version of this. Still have to believe the super fast fill rate for the starfield, that makes it a must see.

Fake as it may be, I do love the visuals and especially the music.

Fake. The scroll text is the Wikipedia review of SOTB2 :)

@8bitbubsy Ooh, what a Sherlock Holmes. ¬_¬

@8bitbubsy This is "by one step too complex" for ECS realy. =)

Also notice how fast the cracktro decrunches itself, also you hear a fake "on" switch sound, then just a second after the cracktro is running. Do you really believe this is a real one? :-P

The dots zoom in a lot, they are probably not static bobs sprite. If you pause the video frequently, you'll see that the vector balls sometimes almost fill the whole screen. Do you really think he drew so many depths of that sprite?

And yes, this piece *is* pretty hard to do on an Amiga 600, unless you're hitchhikr or some other Amiga coding god.

@8bitbubsy Oh... don`t fuck there. Copper do X+Y plasma easy. 1 layer blitter scroll + 2-3 shadow copy. sinescrolling pallete is easy. vector dots is not realy vector dots of course - this is 1-layer bobs. So this piece of code is not hard to do on Amiga600.
