Classic Game Room - MOTOCROSS review for IntelliVision

[@Chamele7n]

This looks pretty impressive for a 1982 game. And a track editor? I said wow.

[@phoenix0282]

1983

[@aphixe]

used to own and play this game, it was tons of fun back in the day

[@Cyrillion]

This looks like the designers were a bit ahead of their time especially regarding the hardware this was programmed on. An admirable effort but too early, a couple of years later those kinds of isometric racing games rocked on consoles and home computers.

[@IntellivisionDudeGaming]

Great classic i used to love back in the day.

[@mrnevermind]

1982 this game would've won the best graphic category. It looks actually very nice for its time

[@notyoursavior78]

Ah this game is a technological marvel :) Floating bikes, blazing fast FPS (sarcasm there) and gambling mode! I had to rewatch this one after Mark recently reviewed a different Intellivision game. Really good review.

[@LegendaryA37]

As a kid of the new console generation I tend to like to see the newer games Mark reviews, but any review is so enjoyable it doesn't matter. He can review paint drying and it would be a fun time.

[@GaggleofDoozies]

Loved this game back in the day.

[@notyoursavior78]

Even though this game is pretty sluggish looking, what an ambitious attempt at a motocross game in 1982 this was. If this was Atari 2600 it may have just been two squares racing each other haha Another great review by Mark, I too love this classic game reviews. I also love the gambling mode in videogames too.

[@minoshiya99]

Last year I picked up a Intellivision at a thrift store for $10.00 4 games and 2 controllers, rf box all there! The games had boxes and the little cotroller lay over intacted. I am a collector so I was very happy!

[@Wampaa]

These are the types of games I like to see on "Classic" game room.

[@Studio42-JZG]

I think the "classic" in "Classic Game Room" is in reference to the room itself, not just the games. Just a thought that if you accept, would allow for all sorts of game reviews, both old and new games.

[@Cashmere.Kufi_88]

Was 12 back in 1982 and was heavy in BMX used to play this imagining it was bmx racing

[@rayforceaddict]

This looks like it plays a LOT like the later Racing Destruction Set on C64/Atari, down to the track graphics, turn rate, overall gameplay speed, and the physics including spinouts+timing when the vehicles collide. Man, now I want an Intellivision.

[@mink03]

that game looks amazing for the era.. amazing

[@dylandionrakiman]

I love how when he fast forwards the game actually looks like it's playing as fast as an actual bike race

[@TheOneTrueFingal]

This game has Hover Bikes? Sold! Great work as always, Mark!

[@timespacedub]

nice, loved the fast forward ending.

[@rayforceaddict]

OH it's by all the same people!! If you like Motorcross, definitely check out Racing Destruction Set. It's got a dozen customizable vehicles including a moon buggy, you can change the gravity, enable weapons, and all kinds of other things. I spent about 5-zillion hours with it when I was a kid.

[@notyoursavior78]

That's right. If the game ran like that in 1982 it may have been the best game of the decade.

[@gabbogabbo]

Pretty impressive I must say! I would have been all over this game if I wasn't a 1 year old back then!

[@tomgola3]

Either way. It's well deserved a lot of planning and self confidence is put into the making of these videos.

[@walidb123]

it's got more features than most games these days. excitebike is my childhood favourite though

[@blooregardo]

Man I had this game, I loved it

[@HerrFinsternis]

Wow, I was still "in the making" so to speak when this was released, but this seems like an awesome game for the time and years thereafter, especially when compared with PC gaming in the 80s (which I wasn't really a part of now that I think of it, but I did play a lot of 80s games during the early 90s)

[@SprocketWatchclock]

Nostalgia alert!

[@sglider]

This game wound up becoming Racing Destruction Set on the Commodore 64 which in turn became RPM Racing on the SNES which then became Rock N Roll Racing on the SNES/Genesis.

[@0ring0]

Whoo! First Passenger 57 reference of 2013! FREE SNIPES!

[@dr34mv3iL]

in fast forward this actually looks like quite a fun game

[@chronictron]

Never even knew of this one , fun looking game! Great review as always.

[@djacgators1]

where can u find a web site for retro video game arcades? or some kind of list of arcades. Im looking for places to go play the games from mine and my late brothers childhood. He passed away and I just want to show our kids what we did for fun in the late 70's early 80's. Thanks

[@ViperMD]

Hmm. Reminds me of "Racing Destruction Set" by EA from 1985 on the C64. :) Man I had a lot of good times with that..

[@DoubleATam]

That fast-forwarded bleeps and bloops sounded hilarious. If only the game actually moved at that speed, it'd be perfect.

[@gulskjegglive]

I spent hours and hours making the perfect race track and running it all day.

[@ArmoredCoreRaven]

When you speed it up it sounds like alien lifeforms are trying to contact me in my mind.

[@tarquinnff3]

I'm pretty sure you tapped into a haunted UFO when you fast forwarded near the end. :D BTW, this game looks really cool. That perspective if probably my favorite in racing games, mostly because of Rock 'n Roll Racing. ^_^

[@xXE4GLEyEXx]

i just simply love anything CGR gives to us @Wampaa

[@tunedcentral]

Do you have b17 bomber as narrated by steven hawking

[@xenoranger79]

Sweet! It's Stormtrooper Racing!!

[@SWellusionist]

Thumps up if u noticed the all hail lord karnage sign on the CGR opening

[@murpmurphy]

Nice job dude, fun and funny!!

[@ColtGColtG]

Mark, may i suggest you start giving beer parings with your games?

[@eins2001]

Yes... yes I am watching this via Intellivision

[@PacificReefs]

Mark how about a tour of the Intergalactic Space Arcade!?

[@bytex666]

What console is the game for?

[@finRatman]

Holy shit, I thought I was the only one. BOMMBB SQUAAD!

[@wwemario12345]

Yes I'm watching this on the INTELEVISION

[@ZetZatar]

Quite impressive for the era! Does anyone make any 'overclocked' systems with faster speed? ;)

[@JohnSTF72]

Not exactly the most exciting interpetation of Motocross (there's a serious lack of speed) but the editor was quite innovative for the time.

[@PinBallReviewerRepairs]

Yep it is pretty cool I like Excitebike for the course maker and would probably like this one as well. ;)

[@gabrieleamore3081969]

Having seen this I wonder why they could not make a nice isometric zaxxon..

[@DiViBucket]

Mark is right, I am watching this on my Vectrex

[@Dukefazon]

How about more packaging reviews?

[@burrfoottopknot]

Awesome

[@0smundSaddler]

But is this a symbolic journey through life like Enduro Racer is?

[@thelankytank]

this guys so god damn awesome

[@blu1509]

PLEASE REVIEW THE NEO GEO X GOLD CONSOLE

[@jacksaladin]

But Mark is in the future, broadcasting from the Intergalactic Space Arcade, so, to him, the present-day games are also classic relics of the past. Think about it

[@weblywoobly]

looks like a cross between excitebike and rc pro am nes games

[@mrmimeisfunny]

is it on intellevision lives?

[@ArmoredCoreRaven]

I don't know about the other versions (PC and DS) but it's on the PS2 version of Intellivision Lives!.

[@thaddeusmcgrath]

I would enjoy having an evil red eyed squirrel playing Dreamcast with me, enjoying peanuts and gaming together!

[@BrianPicchi]

If you like classic Apple II game reviews, I got lots of em on my channel :)

[@gillianorley]

Make the computer play against itself until it learns that, "the only winning move is not to play."

[@solunasunrise]

at least it had curves and bends ... something that X-ite Bike massively lagged ;)

[@dylandionrakiman]

Actually, if you look at one of his highest viewed video's (Mario Kart) you can see that he's got 20327707 views. Now, taking into account that most KZbin partners earn $2,5 to $5,- per 1000 views you can calculate that he made $50.000,- to $100.000,- with that. This is not a correct number seeing as about 10% to 50% of all KZbinrs use Adblock and there's quite a big chance of no ad being shown at all. I'd still say $1.000,- is a valid guess, though, for one of the most popular videos.

[@RafaelloCraiova]

you're actually jealous of his pure awesomeness and you're secretly in love with him...

[@phazon911]

How do you ever get bored...?

[@SushiSunshine2000]

ON THE INTELLIVISION!!!!!

[@Bannanawaffles2]

That is, Super Nintendo Entertainment System -_- "Enteriment" isn't a word. And I'm entirely missing your point O.o

[@RetroClash95]

Ayy Luke!!!

[@frizzwillow4414]

the NEO GEO X IS AWESOME PLEASE DO A REVIEW IT

[@BrianPicchi]

Correct. Make a new channel called "Contemporary Game Room" for contemporary games :)

[@Ericnorify]

sweet, intellivision.

[@RonPaulsVoice]

Mark makes $1100 per episode. Dude is crazy rich.

[@Frankfurtdabezzzt]

well, if I sit on my Intellivison, I'm pretty much watching this on the Intellivison

[@magesfolly]

"Oops, that's gonna leave a Mark." XD

[@DevAngelo]

Wow. In some ways this is better than excite bike

[@Bannanawaffles2]

No, Entertainment as you put it the second time around is a word, "Enteriment" as you put it the first, alas, is now. He means SNES AND Genesis, saying that Rock N Roll Racing was released on the SNES And the Genesis, but instead, referring to them together in a more condensed. Its like me saying, I'm of Russian/Ukrainian decent.

[@banj0smah0mie]

Just stick it in an emulator and set the fps limit to whatever you want.

[@Slayermetallica69]

This game needs to be ported to the vectrex.

[@BrianPicchi]

He makes more like $200-300. $1100 is way too high. Although $300 is still a nice chunk of change.

[@dryerlint17]

Racing Destruction Set.............C-64

[@TheNaresh308]

ON THE INTELIVISON

[@sglider]

Um, yeah, your point?

[@immabananaa1]

00:51 unless you're sitting on the intellivision

[@blackcowboymusic]

THIS!!

[@ddalton274]

WOW! :D

[@Progearspec]

How come the motorcycle in this game sounds like a blimp !?

[@mayhem1994]

u do no that snes stands for super nintendo enteriment system

[@mayhem1994]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ok now i get it now i get it

[@Ziggletooth]

...wait, what kind of television?

[@kR0B45]

This is Excite Bike, except actually good.

[@IdealIdeas100]

Then why are you even watching this? Haven't you ever heard "If its not for you, don't watch it"?

[@Wakkajakka]

Actually the dirt bikes look like exaggerated unicycles, on most side angles.

[@GovermentGamer]

:( What if I wasn't born in 1982?

[@then8mac]

I played against myself, and I won!

[@mayhem1994]

well u said snes genesis but there was no snes genesis and yes entertainment is a word

[@magnumninjagaming]

how is it that 2 months ago i could watch youtube no problems and now it loads only 10sec of video then sits there for 30 seconds i cant even enjoy youtube in hd anymore cause they just had to mess it up with stupid ideas

[@MrKilroy3]

It looks like they're riding unicycles

[@GXEntertainment]

There are plenty of ways they could have covered for the game's slow speed. For instance: Just call it "Motocross: Senior Circuit."
