@@chivalrous_chevy1163 Well, the Amiga version of this game is the original. All other versions are converted. If you listen to the tunes of the conversions you'll realize most of them sound not as good and clear as the Amiga music. Also some other versions are missing the lyrics from the intro tune (aside from Amiga versions all but 3DO, Jaguar, Atari ST and Game Boy Color) or at least the lyrics don't sound near as good as on Amiga (Atari ST and GBC). That makes two systems (3DO and Jaguar) equal to the sound quality of the Amiga. But both of these systems are much newer hardware than the Amiga. That means a 1985's Amiga makes possible for what other manufacturers needed much newer hardware that was released in the 1990's only. Seems like Amiga won the sound competition. That's what was talked about here.
Sensible software were the kings of the 90s for me. Everyone played Sensible Soccer but this was my favourite. Such an incredible game, it was able to entertain yet leave you feeling such despair for your fallen comrades you'd hesitate to send any more troops in to play more. Those who criticised it for glorifying war clearly never played it.
It's mad with these games how they've stuck in our heads. I played it when it was released and i still regularly hum the music. Especially the recruiting screen music. It so sad and haunting.. and with more and more tombstones on that hill.
Looking back its weird how this was controversial for allegedly celebrating war. Its disclaimer on the British Legion is a notable outcome of that. The satirical introduction, coupled with the symbolism of the desperately long line of recruits and graves, are mutual parodies of the political intrigues of war and the horrific consequences for humanity. It's there to see, not to mention the occasional screams of a wounded soldier on the floor unable to die. It was an awesome game, but the undertones are quite wrenching really.
Quoting from the manual for the Mega Drive version (but pretty much the same in all the other versions' manuals), under the section "Be The Fittest" (handy hints for playing the game): "And on a more serious note: don't try playing this at home, kids, because war is not a game; war, as _Cannon Fodder_ demonstrates in its own quirky little way, is a senseless waste of human resources and lives. We hope that you never have to find out the hard way."
There was a Genius hidden behind that game... A message hidden in satire.. in today's Politically correct world this song wouldnt stood a chance to be published.... They rather release black man singing on how many ways he will f.. his bit.. I miss 90s
Loved this game and music, thanks for the nostalgia! I remember getting Jools to somewhere around the 75th mission, surviving tanks, helicopters and countless enemies only to be killed by a random farmer with a shotgun shouting "Ger off moi laaand!" I was wounded more about that than anything that has happened in any game since! Brilliant game though
My left mouse button broke right before getting the game so this was exactly as far as I could go. I was stuck for a few days listening to this music on repeat ❤️
If you talk about Amiga,it's really hard to find other (only) two games,among all the games I love........Benefactor-F1GP,but also Pinball Fantasies and Flashback are games I never stop playing!
I was having a family spat last year and my brother feeling less alpha, ended the conversation by shouting, 'I don't want to be Jops!'. Best reference my life will ever see.
What a Fantastic Theme Song.. It must have had a big impact on the sales of the game. I had the Amiga 1200, Amiga 600, Amiga 500+ and the good old "Amiga CD32" 3 years before the bloody PS1.. A Shame they went under.. Regards twoTone;-)
I have an Amiga 1200 with a "CF" card and all the games, including Cannon Fodder.. I bought Cannon Fodder on disc boxed, just for the disc drive clicks. (And because it's the number one game ever).
ulan amına koyayım seneler ne çabuk geçti gitti be, ramazan bayramında sabahın köründe bu oyunu açıp oynamıştım kahvaltı yaparken de müziği çalsın diye introsunu açık bırakıp kahvaltıya oturmuştum, hey gidi günler be, gitti güzelim o yıllar, çocukluk gibisi yok herşeyin tadı ayrıydı, şidmi geçim derdinde düştük kafamızı kaldıramıyoruz işten güçten, keşke keşşşkeee o yıllara geri dönebilsem
@@NeilusNihilus yeah well, we were lucky to almost get the full ride of gaming developement. Back then almost each game brought something new and exciting. Also they were scarce, at least where I'm at so you would appreciate it more. No day one patches, no online walkthroughs etc. you had to put some effort to enjoy them. Great times.
The first video game to use actual audio samples instead of creative beeps and boops to make music. I wish I never sold my A500+ with its GVP HDD with 4mb of ram and 1x SCSI CD-R drive.

JOOLS & JOPS never die !!!
R.I.P. Richard Joseph.
pioneer of computer music, and creator of this soundtrack.
These are the sounds of every amiga player's soul.
100%. It was a very special christmas when I got this.
100%, it was a very special Christmas when I got this.
Well said, see you again at The Settlers!
Fallout: war never changes
Metal Gear: war has changed
Cannon Fodder: War! Never been so much fun!
Cannon Fodder! This music is insane, good old times!
Brings tears brother
Wspaniałe beztroskie czasy z amigą...
Tę muzykę rekrutacyjną mógłbym słuchać godzinami...
Chyba rok tę grę przechodziłem

RIP, Richard Joseph. A true genius.
One of the best soundtracks for a game...ever.
Always have a wry smile at the lyrics. My young approx 8 year old self thought it was "WAR! Never in summer time" 🤭
puts a tear in your eye
but only in one eyes because you need the other eye to to aim at Communists with your rifle...
Yeah man gotta love these times. Your mind was free and nothing to care about. Just playin‘ Amiga. ;-)
Thats cause Jools is always first to go
I can't stop listening to that introductory tune even nowadays!
And, only Amiga makes it possible...
Indeed!
Still playing it with an A500 and a 1084S!
It was released on other systems so they make it possible too

@@nikosdial9899 i envy you!
The ST had better sound... 😜🤣
I remember that hill... full of tombstones and this music which always gives me the chills
Yes kids, this was worth the long wait ..... disk clicks and crunches were all part of it.
I miss it.
just hear some lady gaga having sex on Jesus' cross... wont it make u happy? it does for Millions .. search alajan do
It's not the same without floppy drive accessing the disk! Still amazing though!
ah yes worth it indeed. Even Monkey Island 2 and of all it's floppies was worth it
To be quite honest, Cannon Fodder was pretty light with the loading times and disk swapping. It wasn't a problem at all.
I remember playing this as a kid with my late best friend. Very fond memories of this classic.

Oj tak pozdrawiam
The bassline from the recruitment music is why I'm a bass player...
The bassline from the theme isn't bad either... 😉👍
This has to be one of the best intros for a game. God I love my Amiga. Love this game I'm actually playing through it again now 🙂
It's mad with these games how they've stuck in our heads. I played it when it was released and i still regularly hum the music. Especially the recruiting screen music. It so sad and haunting.. and with more and more tombstones on that hill.

I still can’t believe people attacked this game for glorifying war. It’s very clearly an anti-war game.

Your correct even myself at 10yes old could understand that!
Machine: budget A500 (A600).
Great game, even better music.

haha brilliant mate
One of hte best Amiga music themes ever!!!
Takes me back to my childhood 😃😂
I recently bought an old Amiga 500 for nostalgia purposes, and in amongst the games was this beaut! Result!
Same with me just last week :)
Piosenka pełna nostalgii, az sie lezka w oku kreci jak ten czas leci.
I jak wszystko się pozmieniało.
Dokładnie znalazłem to i przypominają się piękne czasy amigi
Dokładnie
Why so many fucking Poles in Amiga threads? At least speak English.
Jools, NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Ahahah
My left mouse button broke right before getting the game so this was exactly as far as I could go. I was stuck for a few days listening to this music on repeat ❤️
You knew you were a beast if you kept Jops and Jools alive 😂
Love the game,love their musics,and play the game since 1993! my f4avorite game all time!
what are your top 3 games then ? :)
If you talk about Amiga,it's really hard to find other (only) two games,among all the games I love........Benefactor-F1GP,but also Pinball Fantasies and Flashback are games I never stop playing!
Hell yeah! Benefactor!

HELL YEAH JON HARE AND SENSIBLE SOFTWARE. PROPER GAME DEVELOPERS
a time back when with so few stuff, you could have so much fun!
I have great memories playing this on the Amiga Commodore 😃
Imagine a new war-strategy game would be released nowdays with a similar song.
I'm playing now this amazing game on my amiga 500 mini, and I love it, as the same when I was a young boy 😍
this music takes me so many years back
thanx alot brother
Over 30's club here. This game was awesome. :)
more like 40s yo group
29 ...just about
Gives me chills listening to this again, thanks for the upload bud.
I was having a family spat last year and my brother feeling less alpha, ended the conversation by shouting, 'I don't want to be Jops!'. Best reference my life will ever see.
I WANT TO BE JOOLS!!!!
That hill music is still so good.
So good, soo goood.. Perfect soundtrack both games (Last part is Jon Hare - Narcissus) ;)
thanks

Too far ahead of the times. No one really understood it.
First time I booted this game, I was like "HOLY SHIT the song has LYRICS?!?!?!" I had never seen this in a videogame before.
Nostalgic, timeless, great upload
I have an Amiga 1200 with a "CF" card and all the games, including Cannon Fodder.. I bought Cannon Fodder on disc boxed, just for the disc drive clicks. (And because it's the number one game ever).
У меня слезы на глазах от этой музыки
Nic w świecie gier już nigdy nie dało takiej frajdy jak amiga i tamte gry i 8 bitowa Muza..
The Intro to this music will stir your jibblets so perfectly you'll wonder if we are all still in the Milky Way
Golden era in my life timer. First my sąd next me. One of the best music.
Killing with your gun! So much fun! Waaaaaarrrrrr!
cannon foder saund fun
Fav mus from childhood, played this game, at this time Amiga500 was better computer for games than PC
My dad hated this tine i used to pump it right up good times never been so much fun.
Playing this masterpiece on my Amiga 500 mini.
That's a groove.
One of thr best... 😉👍
Great memories
I Love this music .

Great Music in the Amiga Game. It's funny to play this game :)
la dedico a te ANGELO, sei nel mio cuore...forever
Very good game in 90`s Amiga never die
Atari ST you mean... 🤣👍
Chillhood. Good vibes
Yeah seriously, thank you so much for this.
awesome feeling game ehh a loved amiga :)
2019 still love this brings bak my childhood
Who others won the game with the first
4 recruits?
I played and loved the game & soundtrack, that I kept coming back
Faking being sick to skip school was never so much fun. Such good memories 🇵🇱🫶
Those were the days. I doubt this generation even think of that, games are so shit and without out being personal these days.
@@NeilusNihilus yeah well, we were lucky to almost get the full ride of gaming developement. Back then almost each game brought something new and exciting. Also they were scarce, at least where I'm at so you would appreciate it more. No day one patches, no online walkthroughs etc. you had to put some effort to enjoy them. Great times.
2018 !! I love it .
The memories... My lil Bro finished the game. I wasn't so good.
So he left you dying in the sun?
Nie bylo lepszej gry na Amigę.
If I ever lost Jools Jopps or Stoo I would reload XD
RIP Richard Joseph.
So much memory ...
Jools and jops.... Legends
Nostalgy!!!
May God help my country and there will be peace. 🕊️🕊️🕊️
I need you there but now you're gone away... 😔
Amiga love
play at 3/4 for original intended speed for original hardware and software.
it's funny how this version is faster and higher pitched. makes me feel like i'm delirious somehow lol
All praise vince lyke
Damn I missed this theme 😂
Джулс и Джопс... Вы всегда были первыми!
This games needs a reboot to commemorate the 20 years in Afghanistan.
This game needs a reboot to commemorate Russia invading Ukraine, again.
love it
The first video game to use actual audio samples instead of creative beeps and boops to make music. I wish I never sold my A500+ with its GVP HDD with 4mb of ram and 1x SCSI CD-R drive.
so we had pirate version of it - except save option was not working - what is the problem... just seat for 12 hours and finish
it :D
This version of recruiting music is longer than SMD version.
SU76M Also longer than the SNES version.
I bet the Americans missed all the sarcasm in this
Круто!
7!cho - FUNkill fodder brought me here.
Музычка детсва + как здравсвуй .

i was so caught by the recruitment music that i copied it in fast tracker 2. just that i could listen it more easily ....
Woooo

It's not the same without floppy drive accessing the disk! Still amazing though!
