1:35 Fun fact: Beverly Hills Cop was originally meant to be more of an action movie, and Sylvester Stallone was meant to star in it, but for some reason that deal fell through. Eddie Murphy was then signed on and the movie was given a lot more comedy elements. But then a few years later a modified Beverly Hills Cop script became Cobra, starring Stallone. And you can even spot the similarities if you know to pay attention.

[@oldstylegaming]

I knew some of that but not that it became cobra.... thank god he pulled out cos bev cop is one of my favourite movies ever

[@phillusted7364]

thanks for reminding me that back in the day there really were some shocking C64 games. I can still recall the dissappointment when I spent my pocket money on bionic granny and loaded it up !

[@ACanOfBakedBeans]

The only thing decent about Bionic Granny was the art on the cover. I've played type-ins....IN BASIC at that, that were much more polished than that piece of crap

[@Vindicator18]

I could add another few games to this list for sure! Black Knight (by Interdisc), was pathetic, the Melbourne House version of Double Dragon, Arnie 2, The Running Man, Red Heat, Cisco Heat, G-Loc, they were all just craptacular.

[@s.ferres4595]

arnie 2 wasn't crap

[@scottbreon9448]

Both ports of Double Dragon would make my list. Both of them were hot garbage. The only good thing about the Ocean version was the music, so at least it had that going for it.

[@Paulgutesten]

@@scottbreon9448 Agree, Double dragon was so hyped and I played it a lot at the arcades. I loved it. When I bougth it on day one to the C64 it was like getting punch in the stomach. Breathlessly bad.

The A-Team was not an officially licensed game. It was actually created by Courbois Software, a notorious Dutch piracy group that basically took other people's games without their permission and sold them as their own.

[@dazdaz105]

Jesus OSG some of those truly were crap, some of them looked like the games you would spend all night typing the text in from a book only to spend another day trying to debug it ! The A-Team looked like it was laden with bugs.

[@uplinkx1126]

A little background info on the A-Team: Courbois Software was a Dutch company mostly known for their copy parties and meatballs. Once every month they rented a place where C64 users could bring their computer with them and share all the latest games and software. Doesn't sound very legal, but back then... no one cared :) They made a lot of software/games too... all with similar quality to The A-team. At those parties they would also sell their own home made meatballs... and that's what I remember them for: copy parties and meatballs.

[@ACanOfBakedBeans]

Yes, the game was essentially an unofficial A-Team game. It was a mail order game only, if I'm not mistaken. A lot of their games were also pirated games that were made by other people first, so I wouldn't exactly call them original. Most of them were games they translated into Dutch that were originally released in other regions. German games were their biggest target.

[@jupreindeer]

This makes sense to me. As I never bought that A-Team was ever meant to be retail. It always seemed like someone's dare after a night of binge drinking and a half day of programming. Four sprites that some knowledgeable programming could do in BASIC and a Star Wars SID? Makes that Top Gun by Ocean look like a legit game. And that thing was pushed out the door as soon as it was certified to fly.

I wasn’t surprised to see Hard Drivin’, but I was surprised to see it so high. Man there were some crap games that got released on C64. I think the biggest surprise for me is A-Team. I’ve seen it before, but I never realized it was an actual commercial release. It just looked like such garbage I assumed some hobbyist programed it and released it into the wild.

[@ACanOfBakedBeans]

It was, but it was technically homebrew. It was made by a notorious Dutch piracy/public domain group. It was not an officially licensed game. It was mail order only. The fact that they even charged for it at all speaks volumes about their ethics, and how much they cared about their customers.

[@TheThormick]

1:08: Oh god, Cobra on the C64! The other games on this list I never played, most I never even heard of, but Cobra I played way too much when I was a kid. My brothers even got it original on disk when it was released, I must've been 7 or 8. The graphical glitches and frustrating gameplay was apparent to me even then, but I still played it. I recall that the difficulty curve was uneven too, so once I struggled though the first part some of the later areas were a breeze, though I might have just gotten the hang of it then.

[@Matty112uk]

Oh god, Dick Tracy. I think I must have blocked out that game from my mind all these years to protect my sanity. I really couldn't remember how bad that was until confronted with it again now. The horror! I remember being in a video game store at my local shopping centre looking for a good expensive game to buy with my pocket money one Saturday in 1990. Unfortunately out of all of the great C64 games available that day, 12 year old me bought that shite! Expensive Dick Tracy was, good it most certainly was not. It came in one of those nice cardboard box type cases, the case looked great, the game was a steaming turd. Just look at those graphics!! 🤢🤢

OK here's a fun fact...Artura was originally planned as a tie in with the Masters of the Universe film but Gremlin lost the licence so the game was totally changed after about 25% of it was complete. They still wanted it finished in 12 weeks though...

[@atarimuseum_nl]

Courbois was a Dutch software company that published software for a.o. C64, Atari 8-bit, C16, Amiga and many others. They only sold their software by mail and at shows. It was not a very professional company, they used for example normal retail audio cassettes from various brands and their covers were simple photocopies. Their products are more like home made items in stead of a professional manufactured product. Many of their releases were "stolen" type in listings from international magazines, sometimes translated into Dutch, and they added their own copyright notice..... . I would not be surprised if they did not have an official license to use the name "The A-team".

[@ACanOfBakedBeans]

Yeah, their games were early examples of homebrew games pretty much, NOT good homebrew games mind you, but homebrew nonetheless. A lot of their games were also PIRATED games from Germany and other countries as well. They basically took games originally developed in Germany and translated them into Dutch, and English without the original developer's consent.

ok, but Chase H.q. should deserve a mention, one of the worst scams for the many fans of the original arcade game who relied on the high-sounding name of the Ocean publisher and were made fun of. Ocean should have apologized to buyers for paying for that crappy Spectrum conversion abomination

[@ACanOfBakedBeans]

As bad a Chase H.Q. was, I actually think Cisco Heat was even worse, and that's saying a lot. At least Chase H.Q. had decent music. That's the only positive thing I could say about the game, however. Cisco Heat was on a whole other level of shit and had NO redeeming qualities at all. And don't get me started on that GOD AWFUL conversion of Super Hang-On.

[@Retro-gamer1984]

Hilarious- thanks ! 😀 The A-team does look shocking!

[@dannymormone]

Yes some of those brings back memories. But for me the worst C64 game was Super Hang On, I was so looking forward to that and when I finally got it, I nearly fell off my chair at how bad it was, truly disastrous.

[@ACanOfBakedBeans]

To me, it's a tossup between Super Hand-On and Cisco Heat. Both of them managed to be even worse than Chase H.Q., which is saying QUITE a lot

[@sncboom2k]

Great list! Thank you. My buddy and I actually loved Karnov when we got it. In its defense, we never knew it was an arcade port so we didn't have higher hopes or expectations for it. We enjoyed it. I don't think we ever beat it.

[@1977dajmo]

Strike! hurts my brain. How did it ever occur to a professional programmer to create a bowling game that puts the player into the position of maneuvering his avatar looking down at him from the ceiling to his rear right side? Why did the pins have to be shown in a separate window in the upper left-hand corner of the screen? Is that a scoreboard at the bottom? How do you screw up a game based on a such a simple concept as rolling a ball in a straight line?

[@mamehaze]

Gazza was clearly just a forward thinking individual who wanted a game with his name on that would best represent his skills in 2022. For that the game should be celebrated as a massive success.

[@jonh404]

You know your first computer is an Amstrad CPC464 when every game on this list looks good and plays well 😂, mind you, I'd have not traded my Amstrad for a C64 EVER... There's more to a computer than games. I'm in Australia, the most expensive game I ever bought on the Amstrad was WAY OF THE TIGER at $49.95 AU which was a fortune back in the day.. Budget games were $9.95, full priced were $19.95 mostly, maybe $25.00. Though I think the most expensive CPC program I ever bought was probably GAC (Graphic Adventure Creator) which I never did anything with 😂 All in all, I bought over 500 games or programs and finished two of them without cheating (not including Adventure games)

[@jcaseyjones2829]

It's really weird to me to see what is clearly a stepping stone between those first consoles like Atari VCS, colecovision etc. and Nintendo, sms etc. We didn't have widespread computer gaming obviously during the crash in the us. I got a c64 later but I'm ashamed to say I just played the same stuff I was playing on consoles. I remember loving Commando on c64. I wish I'd been a little more adventurous. Literally the only non-us popular game I remember on c64 was some sort of isometric view motorcycle game that I don't think had any actual point to it, you just rode around a town until you ran out of gas. I was fascinated with the idea that I was just supposed to zoom around without any overarching story or goal. I played a ton of that. I'd love to play that again if it sounds familiar to anyone!

[@blainstocking]

Action Biker (Clumsy Colin)?

[@C64_Mat]

Action Biker!

[@MarkTheMorose]

Certainly sounds like Action Biker, but there definitely was a point to it. Drive around looking for flashing objects, these can be almost anywhere in the town, Drive over them to pick them up, some of them upgrade your bike with better brakes, higher speed etc. The idea is that once you've collected all the items, you then get to enter a race. Drive to the petrol (gas) station, stop near the pump and you'll get your bike topped up with fuel. Just about the best £2 I've ever spent.

[@Mamiya645]

Domestic Dog Simulator on Steam gives me the vibes of C64 Speccy era. What am I doing, what is this game, what are my goals, haven't got the faintest but it touches me old heart.

[@TheSudsy]

I must have been posh I used blutac to fill the holes as tape sometimes peeled off and got stuck in the tape machine. I must admit these sorts of games (not just C64) sort of vindicate all the software piracy I did - because if i liked the game I bought the "original" and started collect "originals".

[@IsaacKuo]

I'm glad I never played any of these, but Jet Strike Mission does look vaguely interesting to me simply because it has pure PETSCII graphics. Looks like it could have been easily ported to a few game-deprived Commodore computers such as the Plus/4 and PET. Okay, the game sucks, but a modern game vaguely inspired by it could be cool. PETSCII graphics were rightfully looked down upon back then, but it's a bit trendy nowadays.

[@BroqHans]

To this day, I'm grateful I only ever came across Cobra and Highlander. Great music in both of them, though.

[@helvete983]

I find videos like this a bit disingenuous sometimes. I think certainly in the UK most kids weren't going out weekly and spending their pocket money / paper round money on full price games. We all knew the gaming mags were full of shit too. You were more likely to come across the games in this video on a tape you'd copy from a mate with 20 or so games on it. This was also part of the reason budget games did so well, and why we have classics like the Dizzy series, affordable and fun, and you weren't breaking the bank if you bought a crappy budget game. Like a game on this list, Striker, budget game, but actually a decent game for the money certainly not even in the top 100 of worst ever games on the system, that is absolute bullshit.

[@winston846]

The C64 conversion of Double Dragon was awful.

[@helvete983]

It's been a while but if I recall the Spectrum version felt a little similar to Green Beret.

[@cthulhusmop]

Not sure how true it is, but I read somewhere that the 'Highlander' game was deliberately sabotaged by the creators because they realised too late that, with the licensing deal they rushed into, that they actually stood to lose a ton of money if the game became popular - by making it so bad, the negative reviews it got would scare people away from buying it, thus preventing them from going bankrupt. If true, that has to be one of the weirdest tales in computer gaming ever 😄

[@McD5791]

I was a Spectrum kid back in the 80's, but my sister's ex did have a Commodore 64 that I got to play on a few times. One of the games he had was called "Dark Star"... which I think should have gotten a mention on this list. This was a rip-off of the Star Wars' Death Star trench run, from a top-down perspective with the action scrolling down towards your ship. You had to contend with random space craft flying down the trench at you and sentries on the side of the trench firing at you. What made it awful was that the trench wasn't a long straight - sometimes it would fork into two or three routes and sometimes a route would lead straight to a dead end, resulting in unavoidable death. And the real kicker? You only had ONE LIFE!! So once you die, it's back to the start you go to try again.

I hope Mr. Elwood liked his tankard of brew when brain storming this...gotta be joke. I'm also somewhat surprised that my number two pick for this list is nowhere to be seen. Talking Ocean's Top Gun. Powered by the hit '80s movie title, this game has one game play mode...a 2 player game. No AI at all. And graphics that look like the budget ran out right after they got the prototype of the game up and running. Perhaps the highlight of this failure is going into a nosedive to find the virtual ground...and finding out that it not only doesn't exist, but that the game does not even care if your ALT goes into the negative digits.

And your high and mighty claim about games getting better until the hardware stops it so anything that doesn't push the hardware is crap is also a load of bullshit, Minecraft the most successful game ever is way below modern PC and Consoles hardware limits, STEAM is full of games like Terraria that do not push the hardware limits and are still great games. But anyway, thanks for showing everyone how clueless you are about games and hardware, it just means folks can avoid your channel.

Funny part: "Top 10 of what?"

[@oldstylegaming]

??? What does that mean?

[@chriscowey7464]

Some of these games are just disgraceful. I made better looking games in the shootem up construction kit........The A-team game??? is that even a game, surely that took about 5 mins to knock up, Almost makes E.T. look good.

How could you forget Transformers, that game pas pure dog shit 😂

[@oldstylegaming]

Oh yes i remember that now... more crap marketed at us unsuspecting kids

[@MudSluggerBP]

@@oldstylegaming as a huge Transformers fan back then, I was so disappointed by the games we had. So glad I got to play the newer games like Devastation though. Bought myself an Xbox One X a few weeks back because I found a copy going cheap at my local CEX lol.
