Predator Longplay (C64) [50 FPS]

Follow me on Twitter @   / al82_retro   Get Great Retro Scene News @ http://www.vintageisthenewold.com Support me on Patreon @ https://www.patreon/Al82Retro Developed by Source Ltd. and published by Activision in 1988 As one of the best 80's action films ever, Predator should need no introduction. A license tie--in was sure to follow and, sure enough, here it is. What is very interesting is that there are multiple versions of this game, which I didn't know about. According to info on the net, there are "slow" and "fast" versions of the game. The "fast" version, as the title suggests, runs much faster than the slow version, but is really a run-and-gun shooter that follows the plot of the film. This was the version that I owned on my C64 back in the day and also the version that I tried to complete a longplay for initially. Unfortunately, I'm not sure it can be completed (see reason why later). The "slow" version is visually and sonically identical to the "fast" version, but the gameplay is much slower, probably too slow and might explain why the separate "fast" version exists; I'm guessing either the developer or publisher thought the slowness would be a turn-off for gamers. In the "slow" version, the predator appears by leaping out of the air and decloaking in dramatic fashion. In the "fast" version, he simply walks in from the right of the screen. The "slow" version has an inventory at the top of the screen and it's possible to loot caches for extra items. Caches can contain extra ammo, bullet-proof vests and other items; these can be used by pressing the corresponding function key. The "fast" version has no inventory and no caches. In the final scene of the game, you have to kill the predator using the log suspended from a tree, just like the film. In the "slow" version, you stand next to the rope and pull down on the joystick and Arnie hoists the log up. You hit the predator (or avoid it) and when it appears on the right side of the screen, pull down on the joystick next to the log and spring the trap. Time it correctly and it will hit the predator and you can exit to the right. In the "fast" version, you can't pull on the rope and you can't exit to the right without killing the predator first. I think you might have to punch it to death, but didn't have the health to have a stand up fight with it. This longplay was recorded using the "slow" version. There's an interesting scene in the penultimate level where you're crossing the muddy swamp and the predator's 3 red dots appear. If you pull down on the joystick, you crouch in the mud and Arnie's sprite visibly darkens as he gets caked in mud. If you stop moving, the red dots move away as the predator can't see you. Unfortunately, you take damage from standing in the swamp and are likely to be worse off than just taking the hit from the predator. In terms of pure gameplay, it has problems. It's difficult not to get hit by enemy bullets as they can fire up and down the playfield and the controls are clunky, particular when considering that you'd need to operate a joystick AND keyboard. All this makes it too damn hard to try and play it for real. However, it is actually quite exceptional considering the fact it follows the film plot closely, with all the memorable scenes recognisable and, for all its faults, playable. Enjoy! #retrogaming #c64 #commodore64
