The History of Robocop arcade documentary

The complete history of the entire Robocop franchise from the movies to the games and everything in between. I take a look at all of the Robocop games from the very first title released back in 1987 all the way through to Robocop versus the Terminator and finally Robocop Rogue city. Plus there's lots of interesting little facts and other tidbits I have been able to unearth.
Hope you enjoy it.

We had an Robocop arcade machine in college. It’s one of those games where you can memorize your way to a 1cc. I haven’t played in 35 years, but watching this video I still remember all the little details - where you need to stand, when to jump, etc. Crazy how our brains work.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

It is, I agree. Remembering the oddest patterns from years ago just like Pac-Man And that's over 40 years old

[@exidy-yt]

Haha, truth! That's how I leared to eventually 1-quarter Black Tiger. I was the envy of the 7-11 for a while with that.

[@TomTokyoYugi]

​@@exidy-ytMe too I agree the same!

[@PrezPendejo]

Our local arcade used to have this for years. Robocop yelling "Drop it!" during the attract mode is a weird core memory of mine.

[@murraybain5359]

Interesting. The pattern imprint is a survival thing- your caveman brain knows when to throw the spear at the boar. The adrenaline and endorphins puts it in your muscle memory-hey you need to remember this to “survive”.

I once met Kurtwood Smith, while cosplaying as Robocop

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

That sounds really cool

[@Retroman8000]

Was he still bald?

[@dansmith16]

So they used the flamer from Heavy Barrel in place of the Cobra Assault Cannon for the first game. They used several sound fx from Heavy Barrel.

I was such a fan of the original arcade and still play from time to time. I played the game even before watching the movie, and the new game is just perfect as a continuation of the franchise.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Yes, the new game is a lot of fun with plenty of little Easter eggs

[@Sinn0100]

Oh my God I just finished the new game. What an absolute freaking blast. Someone needs to slap the game industry awake and show them that is how you make a game. Think about it this way a licensed product (Robocop) just may dethrone Call of Duty MW as the FPS to get for 2023. If you would have told me that last year I would have told you to take your meds.

[@ralfvanbogaert3451]

This was the only coin-op (apart from Xain'd Sleena) that I could 1CC, although I didn't know what difficulty it was set to. The key was to get the shooting gallery right because it would extend your life bar if you got a perfect score, which was essential in the later stages. Another trick was to try and punch as many enemies as possible whenever you had the Cobra cannon so you had at least one shot left when facing the boss, which was enough to destroy it as soon as it appeared, and would save you a lot of energy.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

That's pretty awesome, I could never do that

[@evilash570]

Xain’d Selena or Solar Warrior is tough as hell. Amazing that you could 1 credit it!

[@ralfvanbogaert3451]

@@evilash570 The game is very linear and can be entirely memorized, and is also generous with 1-ups. Play the space shooter stages well and you can accumulate a lot of them.

Robo2014 had potential but I think the lead actor was all wrong and I didn't like Michael Keaton as the bad guy either. But I don't think it was all THAT bad.

[@Sinn0100]

Oh man am I a huge Robocop fan. The first time I watched Robocop I was 9 years old. This was in 1988 and my dad had it on VHS. He let me watch a ton of cool movies but Robocop was one he was pretty adamant about me not watched it...for some reason. At the time it was the single most violent film I had ever watched and I loved it! From that point forward I was a fan for life. The first time I saw the Robocop arcade cab I was blown away. It had incredible graphics, pitch perfect clear voices, and tons of Robocop inspired violence. I wanted so badly for it to release for the Sega Genesis in 1989 as it really fit Sega's image. Thank you for covering this. I can only assume this was done as a homage to the new game that recently released. Addendum- Have you had the opportunity to play Robocop: Rogue City yet? It is incredible and needs to be experienced by all Robocop fans. I myself just finished it not 5 minutes ago on my Xbox Series X and WOW! The graphics are insane, the sound sublime, the voice acting was perfect, and the gameplay is delectable. It is so good that it should be seen as the true sequel to Robocop 2. I cannot say enough good things about it...10 out of 10 and too Hell with whoever doesn't like it.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Robocop is been one of my favorite movies and arcade games for a long time so I wanted to cover it with the same gusto that have covered other games. With Rogue city coming out and seemed like the perfect time. Yes I talk about Rogue city at the end. It's a lot of fun and any fan of Robocop should check it out. It's pretty cool it's set between the second and third films in continuity. Thanks for watching

[@digitalmagicAR]

Another great review! I was super excited about this game back then. Loved to watch it at the arcade but not sure if I ever played it since I didn't have a lot of money. When it was released on NES I excitedly bought it, loved it and beat it the first day, by figuring out a button combination that gave infinite continues (I was good at figuring out cheat codes etc). Fast forward to 2024 and I bought a retro system and was surprised how good of a game it wasn't. Pretty much just another side scrolling shoot-em-up except you play as Robocop. However the retro system did include the arcade version too so I played it about 30 minutes finally, which is about 30 minutes more than I ever played the arcade game, and enjoyed it. Still love the 1987 movie. It is great!

[@palaceofwisdom9448]

I remember buying the NES Robocop game used from the local video store for $15, and I got a ton of value for my money. It was so well done, and I was actually able to beat it without the usual trauma that comes with most NES games.

Thanks for the great review. I too was a fan of the original Robocop movie and arcade game. There was one at a 7-Eleven that I completed when I was in High School and one at the student center during college. I never played the NES version of Robocop but I did have Robocop Vs Terminator for Genesis. That was an cool game and played it a lot (along with the Mortal Kombat games). Too bad they never released the Gameboy advanced version, it looks really good and it would be popular on Switch. I asked for the new Robocop game Rogue City for Christmas, it looks good. We’ll see what happens.

[@kernsanders3973]

If I remember correctly, the reason why they did that punching at the start of the arcade game is because Robocop is a police officer. So they wanted to show he was being provoked to using his gun. And not just start the game blasting everyone. There was a arcade of this game at a seaside town where we use to go vacation. There was a teenager there that could finish the game with just one quarter. Always amazed me and I usually watched him do an entire run.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

That makes sense, thanks

[@lurkerrekrul]

A laser rifle? That's the Cobra Assault Cannon that the bad guys used at the end of the movie. I've never understood why the games are uneven at using Weller's voice for the sound samples. The arcade game has his voice for all the samples in the game itself, but someone else reading the prime directives at the start. The Spectrum version has clips of Weller reciting the prime directives, but not his voice in the game. The Amiga version doesn't use his voice at all. Speaking of the Amiga version, I liked it at the time, even though some of the levels didn't follow the arcade version that well. At one point, I had all the enemy placements memorized and could complete the game without cheating. I could usually get 100% in the shooting range.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

I like tthe Amiga version back in the day when it came out. It's decent and did a pretty good job at replicating the arcades layout. It's crazy how the MS-DOS version is very close in terms of structure even more so than the Amiga. It's just too bad that everything else isn't as good. As far as the voices go I can only assume it's a licensing issue. At the very least they could've had someone try an American accent when reciting the lines

[@MrRyuken555]

Some secrets in the original arcade game, there are 2 places in the game (may be more) that if you shoot the rifle your score will constantly runs up. You have to stand still after firing the shot, as soon as you move it stops. The only limitation is the time on the stage. One is on the junk card stage a little after getting the rifle(use your shots wisely) save it for where the extra health is, then go up the lift, shoot the rifle. The other is in the narcotics factory stage just before the wrecking ball boss. On stage 2 before the boss (van) there is a gate and 2 boxes. If you move right so that the boxes are barely still on screen you can then go back to them and punch them, you can keep punching them, getting a few hundred points each time. The limit is the stage time once again. Last one, the ED209 in OCP HQ if you time it right you can jump behind it (you will take a little damage) but once you are behind it, you can easily kill it as it won't turn around.

Similar to the original concept of OCP creating the inferior ED 209 that just doesn’t work. It’s a good metaphor. Great video as always Pat

When you grow up with the original and the a remake comes along it's always kind of sour in my opinion. Thanks

[@SteveCrew925]

I remember spending many days as a young kid struggling to beat robocop 2 nes. And once I did, I went on to do it over again and again

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

That was a fun little game

[@aaronko3480]

Robocop fried chicken has forever changed my life.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

[@TheReincarnatedDeath]

Is Robocop for the Gameboy Advance leaked somewhere?

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Google is your friend

[@Morbid0007]

I love the original arcade game!

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

So do I

[@VictorHernandez-nj2lo]

I don't see Robocop at 17:29. The character to the the far right is actually a bootleg power ranger toy. Particularly, the white ranger from power rangers dino thunder

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Because I was showing you examples of all the various bootlegs that were out there. I then Followed it up with a Robert Cop

[@midwestmonster9886]

It's funny the original arcade game has enemies on motorcycles and enemies with jetpacks. The second Robocop movie would feature a scene in which Robocop battled punks on motorcycles and the third film had him (not an enemy) using a jetpack. Intentional or not, they accurately predicted things that would be in the sequels.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Exactly, kind of strange isn't it

[@disasterincarnate]

the similarities to judge dredd go deeper, robocop often calls criminals "Creep", thats straight off dredd, also in the robocop "flesh and steel", making of documentary you see a bust of judge dredd when they were making ideas for the robocop suit, and you then see it slowly transform from a bust of dredd to what we all know. specifically here, it shows they started sculpting 3d models in clay and dredd is the start point of robocop: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn_SpqBtodF9ers

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

I came across that picture of the suit that you are referring to and should have squeezed in somewhere

[@blackflame4506]

I was a huge Robocop fan back in the 90s when I watch Robocop 2 like a million times and Robocop 3 was... was not as good of the first two and seen the TV series and play some of the games. Thanks for the video Patman

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

I agree, there is a slight dip in quality from the first Robocop the second and the third one fell off a cliff thanks

[@faenethlorhalien]

Middling game based on the microcomputer versions (which were better than it) that I played quite a bit in the day. We didn't get that many good games where I am from back then. Tbh, the best game, in terms of overall praise, that we got in this area was Tetris. All the others, which I still enjoyed, and I'm talking late 80s, were this and Altered Beast.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

I liked the computer versions but they don't touch the arcade in my opinion

[@MaxShrek]

I do need the reminders to "like" the videos.. every now and then I check to make sure I have.

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

I do appreciate it, thanks
