Terminator 2: Judgement Day Longplay (Arcade) [4K]

[@ironiso411]

This is the first time i've ever seen someone managed to keep the truck gunner alive all the way to the end

[@3931aaron]

Was literally just talking to my old man about this. It would start you over. Spent endless quarters on it. Only time I got past this an beat it was on Sega genesis. Back when games were extraordinarily tough.

[@rcadenow7543]

this part it really broken mess and very random. also the parts inside the cyberdin building (no way to truly destroy 100%) and the chopper that coming wayy to fast at the van. but in general it one of the best movie game ever.

[@ericanulph1980]

Keeping the truck gunner alive to me was the hardest part of this game

[@teptaylor]

There's lots of 100% equipment runs

[@deceiver444]

One of the most intense shooters you could find in the arcades back then. The later levels are insanely hard.

[@digitalfox9604]

I could never Fkng do it

[@GPWT-video]

Привет, мужики)

[@Pointlesshandle48]

I can still feel the arcade in my hometown, I can smell it, I can hear the loud music and arcade themes, I can see the dim lighting and glow of every screen. I love nostalgia.

[@mich722]

Back then, this game looked amazing to me, as if it was movie level graphics and felt so immersive.

[@ajhproductions2347]

No shit! I was just gonna say holy crap, this game is so repetitive and even boring compared to anything from the last 20 years, but I loved it so much and was always so excited when an arcade had this game and no one was using it. I honestly remember the graphics looking like the movie, and, at the time, they kind of did with what we had to compare it to!

[@CaptWesStarwind]

That damn helicopter ate more of my quarters than any other enemy in any other arcade game.

[@JasonDubin]

Haptics on this were way ahead of its time. Played this endlessly along with Addams Family Pinball at a Peter Piper Pizza in Phoenix, AZ summer 1992 after 7 straight little league district tournament victories. Coach said, if you win, we go to Peter Piper. So we just kept winning. Maybe the best week of my life....pizza, little league baseball and arcade games in a smoke filled environment.

[@_baller]

One thing I always liked about Midway and Midway Arcade games for that matter, is they emphasized photo realistic graphics regardless of resolution, and the characters were big/tall on the screen

[@LukeLovesRose]

This makes me wish i could play this game all over again. It truly was one of the best arcade games. I spent so much money on this game and i dont regret a penny of it

[@KishorTwist]

MAME the sheet out of it!

[@NMAforever]

You can, downloading the Mame emulator and the ROM

[@evanhanley6437]

Awesome game but the difficulty is beyond horribly unbalanced. This really was a quarter muncher back in the day.

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

I think the fact the game itself refers to itself as an "attraction" is telling - it's less of a game and more of an interactive experience, one that's going to force you to pump in money every so often if you want to see the end, regardless of how good the player actually is. As a spectacle, this really would have been quite the thing to see in an arcade, complete with all the licensed artwork, sounds and material recorded for the game by the actual actors (which itself wouldn't have been cheap to do).

[@evanhanley6437]

@@AL82RetrogamingLongplays Yeah, it was to pump up fans to go see the movie. Seeing the actual arcade cabinet in the movie was a nice little touch. It turns out Sarah Connor and John Connor actually use lookalike stunt doubles from the films crew. Sarah is played by Linda Hamilton's sister.

[@Snake-sg7yc]

Very satanic game

[@EyeMixMusic]

@@Snake-sg7yc Very dumb comment. If this film has any religious point of reference, it is the Biblical apocalypse described in Revelations. The movie is even called JUDGEMENT DAY. That's a Christian reference, not a "Satanic" one.

[@Jac2Mac]

@@AL82RetrogamingLongplays This game would have worked better if Taito had gotten the license instead of Midway and it would use the same hardware that was used in Operation Thunderbolt.

[@johnran6015]

This movie is what I wanted Terminator 3 to be when I was a kid, and have this exact look.

[@fedenovo1]

Me too. They fed* up every time. Didn’t want to budge and do it dark, blue, in this time in the future.

[@WZWAnimations]

They don't make arcade games like these anymore. Just learned Acrade1up made a Terminator 2 Arcade Cabinet.

[@Vesalempinen]

They do not for a reason: home computers and playstations etc. Have surpassed arcade cabinets technologically. Way back then, arcade machines had better graphics, frame rate and sound.

[@bbtund81]

[@nicch5388]

Cuantos recuerdos de este juego, cuando iba al centro o al mercado y había una de estas entre tantos otros títulos geniales. Era increíble usar un arma como control y sentirte parte de la resistencia en la guerra contra las máquinas. El juego tenía una atmósfera muy buena, que bonito es volver a recordarlo. Gracias por el gameplay, estuve buscando este juego por un tiempo y al fin logré encontrarlo.

[@steveulinski98]

30:43 "Are you John Connor?" - T-1000 I played this game growing up and I recently found an original machine at Harley-Davidson Santa Clarita co owned by the T-1000 himself Robert Patrick (he was there when I visited and he watched me defeat him in the Steel Mill level).

OMG all the money we spent back in the day when we could just watch it all unfold on youtube .

[@scottl.1568]

Yep

[@We_Are_Borg_478]

29:47 This was my favorite part of the movie, when John and the Terminator face off with a bunch of chemists in a meth lab while the chemists throw beakers of phosphorus at them. This is why James Cameron is the best.

[@felinusfeline5559]

This is so much more detailed than the Genesis version. The soundtrack for both is great but this beats it in looks

[@KHAOE1]

Of course...it's the original arcade game that the home console is ported from. The arcade versions will always look the best.

[@cinnamoncypher7507]

This game never gets old

I spent a lot of quarters on this back then, enjoyed it all! great with a friend!

[@radspencer8187]

It is hilarious to see SWAT officers rolling on the floor like Sonic. Pure gold. Also who are these people supposed to be? 34:43 Armed Militia of Steel Mill Union?

[@djayk9692]

The goal was to use the Player 2 right/red gun. As enemies would approach from the right of the screen, by the time they turn to shoot, they’re already hitting the left/blue Player 1 screen; thus NOT damaging the Player 2. This in addition to enemies walking on screen from the left are moving slower as they attempt to keep up with the moving screen. Finally, any enemies on the left side of the screen you’d literally leave alone, even if they were shooting. They wouldn’t be damaging you.

[@manelame216]

Another straight up shooting games of the early 90s still look rock!

[@CallofDutyBlackOps28]

Going from Terminators to cyberdyne Security guards and PMC I have to maniacely laugh as the hardest materials known to man were on the Terminators; and going back through time to fight squishy human enemies just felt overkill.

[@ShreddingDragon]

Damn! This actually looks like a really fun rail shooter! Loved the voice line usage, and the creative adaptations of scenes from the movie. The amount of enemies is nuts 😂

[@jonghyun2263]

impressive. Most of us, myself included - cannot even get past the first stage on a single playthrough.

[@thedoghouse3588]

The amount of money I used to pump in this game was crazy. Brought me right back to my childhood watching this .

[@HOTRODRICO]

this game was damn near impossible to beat in the arcade... you better had been saving up your quarters for months lol

[@rickyJR8768]

This needs to be remade with modern graphics, and also have an option where everything is red like you are actually looking through a T-800's eyes.

[@MrJeezus]

15:58 I love how the Arnolds blow up into big meaty pieces as their heads fly up to heaven.

[@searay83]

I played this game at an arcade called the Goldmine at the Pacific view mall in Ventura, California at 4 PM every day after getting a slice of pizza from Saboro’s for $1.25 a slice. I spent hours on terminator to arcade and then I would go to the ticket machines because they had one of the first Timex Indie glow sport watches for 6000 tickets! I saved up 6000 tickets and I went to the Goldmine after school one day and it was gone, My mission completely over and failed, I looked to the left of me and there was a little kid with five tickets, and I handed him a bag. He passed out and his parents were like “ Oh my God, are you sure?” I said yes, I hope he gets a bunch of things that he wants. The parents were still in shock, and the kid was freaking out lol. That’s a memory that will always stay as a part of my childhood. I miss arcades so much, at 41 years old, I would still go to an arcade hall if I could.

[@phlebiax5592]

Nice! Yesterday i was looking for a decent gameplay. And today it showed up! Wonderful!

[@AL82RetrogamingLongplays]

[@streetfightingman4240]

Brilliant!! Enjoyed this play of an absolute interactive classic! I've found a local game shop near me that has this original arcade cab so this was great research for my Arnie bomb I am going to do on it this weekend...asta la vista....baby😅

[@ice_fox]

So many allowances wasted after school feeding quarters into this thing as it sat in the local Walmart entrance. 😅 Those vibrating Uzi's we're so cool back in the day.

[@JM-xp8te]

The arcade was a quarter muncher. My friend and I pumped about $20 worth of quarters in it just to die at the helicopter level. I swear that damn helicopter would literally come up from underneath the van to kill us. So we stopped playing after that.

[@kascnef]

I suck at the helicopter 🚁

[@orangeisthenewblack1012]

I like how that bloke is around that bin fire with all that shooting going on around him lol.

[@keithbunyan2321]

Used to play this at local cinema. Class game. Used to eat your money though.

[@joeyjojojuniorshabadoo6990]

This is intensely cool. I love how it’s 16-bit graphics but with a hell of a lot more computer power to put more stuff on screen

[@blukmage19typeR]

No quarters, press Start: "No way, José."

[@Gabster1990]

Thank you for uploading this. I played this at Arcade Monsters I'm Sarasota. I couldn't get pass the helicopter level.

[@Jiterdomer]

Remember that this game inspired many Raw Thrills and Play Mechanix shooters where health bars doesn’t give you temporary invincibility time, sheer amount of enemies, and insane bosses to the point of making health bars a time limit, meaning that if you damage after short seconds, you take less damage but if you play longer, you instantly die. Terminator Salvation is one of the examples of this as both T2 and Salvation were produced by George Petro.

[@JZanime46]

I remember the gun attached to the console it was so incredibly to me, it was like magic…what a great game

[@korndud]

this is wild. never seen passed the first level lmao.

[@4713Caine]

thanks for putting this in 4k. The arcade is obviously the best version, but the Genesis version has the best music, this version doesn't really have any music lol. Having said that, so much of the movie was missing in this game. the arrival of the terminators, the opening chase with John on his Motorcycle, Pescadero, Enrique's hideout, Dysons home, John's home..... they basically skipped the entire first half of the film.

[@godsjoy1985]

Used to play this a bunch at the arcade way back in the day, but could never beat the trunk level. Got it on SNES and don't think I ever beat the Cyber Dyne assault without cheats. Game is just too hard.

Tip: Collecting missile/shotgun shells and extended magazine power ups will refill your gunpower by itself aside from finding a clip to gain more firepower.

hahaha I remember this game way back in the day in the arcade... To this day I still find occasions to imitate Arnold's voice from when you'd insert coins ( EXCELLENT. EXCELLENT.) or when you would get a high score (YOU ARE SUPERIOR.)

Thank God for the internet and KZbin. I remember playing this game only a few times in my youth; never got as far as the truck in the future war part of the game, and I only saw maybe just a few times when someone else managed to get to Cyberdyne and that was as far as I could remember seeing what the end of the game was going to look like; BUT GODDAMN WAS THIS GAME HARD AS A MOTHERFUCKER, and also FUCKING LOUD AS SHIT TOO!! All in all, this game still kicks ass to this very day; my only wish is if someone could have programmed an arcade shooter like this, but being based on the first TERMINATOR movie where you play the role of Kyle Reese protecting Sarah and fighting Skynet's forces in the future; or even better an arcade shooter based on EVIL DEAD II, or ARMY OF DARKNESS; playing the role of Ash fighting off legions of deadites, and finally facing off against Evil Ash; now that would kick soooooooooooo many levels ass.

[@TheDutchGhost]

Hey AL82, Cool that you managed to find the information on who programmed this game. I agree with you that this is not a good game because of the damn difficulty, especially for a single player in order to squeeze out as much money out of their pockets. But at the time this was probably the best Terminator 2 tie in game. Quite frankly the home computer games by Ocean were quit simply terrible, the awful Amiga/PC game comes to mind with its collection of mini games. In comparison the NES, gameboy, and SNES games were somewhat better, I say somewhat, with the Gameboy game probably being the best, followed by the NES game, and finishing last the SNES game. The Game Gear got a port of the NES game, while the Sega 16-bit got a copy of the crappy SNES game. Such a damn waste of the license. It would take years until there was a somewhat decent Terminator game; Terminator Future Shock and Terminator Skynet, though I think they aged badly. It would then take another long time until we finally got some better games based on the Terminator IP. I myself rather liked Terminator Dawn of Fate. Then followed Terminator 3 tie in. The much better Terminator 3 The Redemption. that Terminator Salvation game for PC/Xbox/PS3, with the mobiles getting their own versions. A shitload of mobile games. And finally the pretty decent to good Terminator Resistance which is probably the best use of the IP in a long time. Before that of course we did have games based on the first Terminator movie. The ones I know best are The Terminator DOS, Terminator for the Sega machines by Virgin while the NES and SNES received its own Terminator games by Mindscape (Sunsoft's Journey To Silius was suppose to be a Terminator game but Sunsoft for some reason could not use the IP name. It would have been a much better Terminator game than the actually NES Terminator game). The best game based on The Terminator movie was the SEGA CD game. There are of course also Terminator 2029/Operation Scourge, and Terminator Rampage, but other than perhaps interesting from a PC gaming history point of view they are not worth playing.
