Agent X 2 (C64) ALL 3 SUBGAMES with BIG graphics & other POKES!
Agent X II / Agent X 2, Mastertronic, 1987,Commodore 64 version
Surprisingly, Agent X II on Commodore 64 is a sequel to "Agent X" published for ZX Spectrum! This is in fact a combination of three different games which are presenting three different classic game genres: a shoot'em up, a platform jumper and a wall breaking game (=break out clone). On this video I show how you can easily modify the graphics of this game. Additionally, the usual cheat POKES are there.
If you like the graphics POKE trick done on this video, you may want to see similar trick done to Ninja Spirit? Video here:

DRJ Nice looking C64-action game teaching me Dutch language!
Переглядів 10814 годин тому
DRJ (Doctor Junior is it?), Radarsoft, 1985, Commodore 64 version Many games from Radarsoft were translated in other languages. For some reason, the only version of this game I have ever seen comes with the original Dutch language. This made it quite challenging for me to learn it at first, but eventually this became my favorite Radarsoft game. Those who are not familiar with DRJ at all may be ...
Zone Ranger action filled space shooter game for C64 WITH POKES!
Переглядів 11814 днів тому
Zone Ranger, Activision/Firebird, 1984, Commodore 64 version One of my favorite early space shooter games. There is a lot of action in this game, hopefully I did catch some of that on this video. Even better if this video encourages someone out there to try this game! If you liked Zone Ranger, Space Pilot 2 is somewhat similar game. My video can be found here: ua-cam.com/video/vRXurX5j9sI/v-deo...
Vikings (C64 game) Islands 1 and 2 guide and POKES!
Переглядів 41721 день тому
The Vikings, Kele Line, 1985, Commodore 64 version Here is a great game often compared to Rambo, based on the first action filled level. Due to the tough difficulty and very limited number of lives, most players probably never saw the island number two, which is actually pure Gauntlet, and well worth the long time exploring! But, to get there, you either need to be a perfect player, or cheat......

      Just made the comparison. As you suspected, 6581-chip sounds right for game 2. Now that the video is already published, seems the crazy 8580-chip version of the music will be the selection on this video. I feel both sad and on the other hand amused by this... Thanks for the feedback though, this is a good lesson learned for my videos in future.

    Very cool. There was also a 'bad ending' I got once back in the day, but I cant remember exactly how i did it, I think I cut the guy free and got the chopper, but just flew to the border instead of rescuing the guys in the camp first. I have to replay it again.
