Commodore 64 Longplay [003] Turrican (EU)

[@christianherbst674]

Turrican for the C64 was amazing! Still today, I can't understand how this little batch of system memory could handle these giant levels, full of enemies.

[@rodrigosimas1980]

Man... The first time ever that i played this was... almost 30 years ago (i was 10 years old... and is still addict to play... Miss the 90's era... These hardcore games...

[@mikekaraoke]

and the 80's era

[@rodrigosimas1980]

Yes as well!

[@Pau_Pau9]

Really?? I thought this game was published last 5 years! Wow, impressive for the time!

[@bigbang36schneefeuer90]

🤣 kann passieren,wir haben es geliebt damals gr.@@Pau_Pau9

[@zatozatoichi7920]

...and an overall better world...

[@thecollector75]

Love how this game used the music from transformers the movie

[@tremorist]

Epic. This brought gaming on the C64 to a whole new level.

[@mrdrgonzo]

This is one of the few games I’ve actually managed to complete! I was addicted to this aged around 8, I think my dad had to buy a new joystick for it as the one we had didn’t hold up to the punishment 😂

[@rodrigo-oliveira-86]

I had no idea the original version of Turrican was for C64... I aways thought it was an Amiga game

[@pferreira1983]

A classic for the C64.

[@adamstratford6740]

So many happy memories of playing this as a teenager.

[@TopKat17]

So glad you're doing Commodore 64 games!

[@Fenderfan1975]

Great memories with! Early 90's at the maximum best. I was sixteen. Class 1975 present. 👍 A greeting to all those who have lived through those wonderful years 👍

[@thomasloney612]

3:05 That's music from Transformers The Movie!

[@LoganHunter82]

3:05 is taken from "The Transformers: The Movie" (1986)

[@windsweeper8002]

So is the music of the end credits.

[@LoganHunter82]

@@windsweeper8002 The song is called "Escape"

[@keveb4724]

Legendary game music

[@coastalcruise1345]

As as kid I used to love that track at 40 minutes, came back to have a listen.

[@windsweeper8002]

Loved this and Turrican 2 when I was a teenager. Was also a huge Transformers fan so was pleasantly surprised to hear music from the Animated film at the start and end of this.

[@Nathriel]

Man the theme tune hits so hard! uwu I love it. This game was always too hard for me on the Genesis since I didn't originally have a C64.

[@Shadow-MCMXCV]

Awesome gameplay 😎 Memories 😢

[@Geisteskr4nk]

Oh shit ... Flashback intensifies :D

[@gj8313]

This was a amazing when it first came out and now is a classic👍

[@ylette]

13:18 Fist 31:48 Fish Two of my favorite C64 bosses.

[@sumrukumru4203]

Such a good game even playable after many years

[@datashat]

The way the sound effect wavetable/arpeggio routine slows down when it's scrolling diagonally is exquisite 🤌

[@sockpuppet4716]

The C64 Version did have some things that weren't in the Amiga version, including a whole extra boss! At the time he made this, Trenz was not just a master programmer but also a decent artist and a great map designer.

[@victorhugoulloa7828]

Ame ese juego..... Podía estar horas en esa maravilla❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊

[@EvilDogMedia]

The first tape I had of this had to go back to Turbosoft because it was missing all the content after 4-1.

[@masterofx32]

Man, the scrolling is so bad. I get PTSD from the memory playing it 30 years ago.

[@hakangurcangurel4052]

Turrican was the best game on CBM 64

[@HellifIknow88]

Great game. Never finished it. I think I got lost around the 1 hour mark.

[@7thSilence]

i just watched this video because of the music at the beginneng 😁🥰

[@TheFusedplug]

They've made a new 2021 version for the Spectrum 128k and I've just had a look + it's not too bad but this game still works better on the C64 (hard to admit as I'm a Speccy 128 guy). 2 other games I'll GIVE to the C64 are Last Ninja + IK+ (Although System 3 could have done a much better job of the Spec version imo)

[@Junior.illinois]

the music at 40:35 bring me back fond memories playing turrican franchise

[@singularity6761]

Hmm the title screen looks almost like the "Manowar" "Kings of Metal" Album cover. Has this ever someone noticed?

[@technischemaschinenfabrik5882]

A fantastic game. One of my school colleagues borrowed the original disc to me. I copied the front side with Turbonibbler 2 and the back side with Turbonibbler 4.

[@JamminReviews]

Those 4 numbers in counter look promising enough

[@strangerthanfiction4014]

Somehow the c64 original was more athmospheric than the amiga Version with All its bells and whistles. It Was more threatening looking, i guess.

[@strangerthanfiction4014]

This was 1 year before terminator 2 came out, this game and the movie are forever connected in my mind.

[@Gollumfili]

The golden golden era, get ya r Rat ouuuuuut!

[@Outlawdave]

Dude, they ripped off the soundtrack from the Transformers 1986 movie...! I'm just impressed that no one gave a shit back then!

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

No "internet" compared to today so the word couldnt spread as easily.

[@fl00d69]

For a system this old, this is absolutely stunning.

[@pookieizzy7]

Turrican looks like Kamen Rider in the title screen

[@komemiute]

Obviously you've never seen the CD cover of Manowar's KINGS OF METAL.

[@Bubba__Sawyer]

No music during gameplay?!?!? That sucks 😕

[@sagediamond3300]

AVGN didn’t cover this game in his C64 video

[@PlasticCogLiquid]

These video's always drive me nuts. I'm like okay, doesn't look so hard, I must be remembering it wrong. Try to play, die 12 times in 30 seconds.

[@VengerVideoGamer]

Superb game on the C64. My only gripe is that it (and its sequel) was much too easy to complete.

[@robertdaone]

Do Forbidden Forrest. That was a great game on the C64.

[@wozukleeds9018]

i never actually had this game when i had a c64 as a kid. BTW how do you change weapon?

[@massproducedeva_]

The ending theme is just Optimus Prime’s death

[@Mrgreenbrixx]

For me ITS the best c64 Game together with gisna Sisters and H.E.R.O

[@Nikku4211]

Bruh, why does the character have to be so close to the edge of the screen in order for the camera to scroll? You can't see enough in front of you.

[@vpinballhobbiesco6188]

listening to jetpack level music in dec 2024

[@lumpcrittergravy]

I know that melody! Transformers 1986 the film!

[@peterah7957]

Tough game... I remember playing this on my c64... I could never stick more then 2hours on it.. Just seemed so endless

[@aaron75fy]

it's a huge game that's true, but it does end. I managed to finish it just fine though there was one boss that ignored my blade ball form immunity

[@robertkavanagh4534]

Menu soundtrack sounds just like transformers the movie

[@damirko06]

'Cause it is... 😉 Vince DiCola - Escape...but i think you knew that...

[@SwedishEmpire1700]

Also introscreen is from Manowar "Kings of Metal" vinyl

[@HaveAniceDay2450]

Best version was on Amiga 500

[@marcelonogueira4594]

Metroid games is a copy of Turrican

[@Rudolphhhhhh]

That is rather the contrary.

[@sockpuppet4716]

The first Metroid came first. And really except for being a gun toting spacesuit person who can turn into a rolling object, they are not too similar. The gameplay emphasis is very different.
