Gameplay from Ghouls And Ghosts playing on the Amstrad CPC 6128 vintage home computer. Retro Gaming.

Big thanks to Jake, DemonOfGaming for sending this to me.

This is not a review, walkthrough, playthrough, or demonstration of my playing ability.
It's more a case of me speaking my thoughts while playing the games, many for the first time, and most for the first time in a very long time... so it's all a little spontaneous and random.
Predictably, as I never practice before recording, I usually play very badly.

Given that I am playing many of these games for the first time, and everything I say is completely off the cuff, you probably shouldn't take what I say overly seriously. The opinions that I express are my feelings at the time, but it's entirely possible that they would be different if I were to take the time to get to grips with the game.
However, given that these videos are intended to show that "first time experience", I believe they have some validity or merit.
If you'd like to know more about why I make my videos the way that I do, it's all explained in this video

Never understood the green screen monitor....why green?? Why?? WHY???

[SteveBenway]

@paulpetroleum Supposedly green is easier on your eyes than black and white, and definitely cheaper than colour.

It looks like this version lives up to the legendary difficulty of Ghouls n Ghosts. I was never a big fan of the game, but this looks like a good version of it, other than the annoying screen movement. I guess they couldn't get this machine to scroll.

[SteveBenway]

@sandmanxo Definitely very difficult. Aparrently scrolling was tricky to achieve on the Amstrad.

[RetroGamerVX]

Yes, 'dying' is a word I associate with this game a lot ;o) Yes, I bet it looks lovely on the monitor, they are very clear monitors :o)

Woo hoo, somebody else who is as bad at this as me :o)

[pundewhee]

This game is much better on c64, imho. The pixels, scrolling and everything else.

Very nice reviewy-kinda-thing, good job, well done.

[neojake999gamer]

This whole series is hard as hell. OMG!! I think I can do just as well as you did here!

[JakalairVG]

The bad guys look like American Hobos. I have a deep hatred for this game just because it was ate so much of my arcade money while trying to play it.

[EgoShredder]

There are some good side scrollers on the CPC, such as the magnificent Savage by Firebird. ht_p://w_w.youtube.com/watch?v­=QEC5T10nqtA

I bought this for the Speccy and played it a lot, but still never got past the part where it's all on fire and stuff (Level 4, I think). Too bloody hard for me.

[DeviouslyDevious]

At 2:21 I was thinking, "Oh yeah, he'll give you something alright..." and then a few minutes later he duckified you. Made me laugh, good video.

[cmdfarsight]

I found this game far too difficult on any platform I've played it on. I've toyed with the idea of getting it for the snes but whether I'll take the plunge is yet to be seen. It's one of those games that you gravitate towards but dislike.
