Cosmic Cop Longplay (Arcade) [4K]

[@TheAleosha]

Incredible skills, that game is super hard!

[@MrCydoo]

love shoot'em up by irem ! this one sound good :)

[@Peter_Morris]

Whoa that is freaky. I was just searching for info on Armed Police Unit Gallop when this popped up in my new videos.

[@joelhannah5826]

Well played as usual!!!

[@NLuKa420]

This would've been killer on the Genesis or Sega CD.

[@pretzel6629]

definetly would not run on either of those, MAYBE sega CD but very downgraded

[@NLuKa420]

@@pretzel6629 That's what ports were. Cut down versions.

[@drlight6677]

@@pretzel6629 On Sega CD it would've been similar to Final Fight CD where game resolution and graphical details would've had to of been downgraded. Cosmic Cop would've been fine on the Saturn and PS1, though those systems came out 4 years after Cosmic Cop came out in arcades which is why it probably never happened. In the Hunt though was fantastic on PS1 and ran pretty good on Saturn and is a much more CPU demanding game than Cosmic Cop.

懐かしいなあ！子供の頃、よくプレイしました。 (´▽｀)

[@retroprojections]

Last Resort? Anyone? What I mean specifically is, I always thought Last Resort ripped off R TYPE, but I see more similarities with this. Thanks

[@ashgonza92]

It's Irem bro

[@retroprojections]

@@ashgonza92 yes, I know. I was stating that SNK borrowed a TON from Cosmic Cop in particular. Most people tend to just focus on the similarities between Last Resort and R-TYPE. I suppose I wasn't very clear with my comment, bro.

[@ashgonza92]

@@retroprojections Oh alright. Last Resort looks cool. I mean look at how many Doom clones there were when it came out.

[@retroprojections]

@@ashgonza92 true!

[@Theshark15z]

Feels like a down to earth version of R-Type.

[@pretzel6629]

It's the same artist, also did metal slug and In The Hunt

[@drlight6677]

Cosmic Cop to me is like if R-Type and Sonic the Hedgehog had a baby lol

[@KairoMontano]

Nice pixel art

[@martinefrensoquigomez7835]

Is this by the same team behind In The Hunt? Because to me the big bosses and the explosions and the shading style are a big giveaway

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

I think the same artists worked across those projects - it's pretty easy to see the lineage when you look at the artwork.

[@drlight6677]

@@AL82RetrogamingLongplays In the Hunt, Cosmic Cop, Gunforce 1 & 2 and Undercover Cops all had the same artists for those Irem games. Pretty good chance too that Strictly Limited Games will be bringing all of those games to PS4/Switch in their Irem Collection releases, they've already announced Gunforce 1 and 2 for their Volume 2.

[@mathiastube4716]

​@@drlight6677Irem's artist was Akio

[@danieldb631]

Not a single bydo in sight, thankfully.

[@ashgonza92]

R-11 :)

[@MaxSabbath83]

these bosses are awful. game looks great tho

[@mariowario5945]

Based space justice

[@sarcasticguy4311]

Ah, so this is where all the assets from R-Type 3 and In The Hunt went....

[@houstonhelicoptertours1006]

This game predates both.

[@deceiver444]

Irem ripping off their own R-Type franchise ?

[@houstonhelicoptertours1006]

You can hardly "rip" off yourself. It was done by the same team.

[@lethalsmoke]

This is a blatant rip-off of R-Type

[@AzrialAlaria]

Yeah, from the people that made R-Type. IREM

[@lethalsmoke]

@@AzrialAlaria They've been hijacked. This is clearly an inferior product.
