      Great video but there is at least one error.
      Don't know what game it was but the one listed as Helicopter Rescue on Odyssey 2 is wrong , it's some other game

    1982 to 1985/86 was a huge step up in graphics, as much as we might laugh at it now. Cheers for the memories!

    0:30 Choplifter was originally published by Broderbund in 1982 for the Apple II, Commodore 64, IBM and other personal computers.
    However, the Sega arcade version, as depicted in the video, was not released until 1985.

    Quick comment on Apache 3 - That game was an INCREDIBLE looking arcade machine, witth extremely fast scaler graphics and a hell of a lot of stuff being thrown around the screen. Unfortunately MAME has never been able to get it working properly so the ground is invisible and the horizon keeps flying up and down, making it look like reality is collapsing at the sight of your mighty helicopter. If you want to see how it really looks, I found a few auctions listings for the arcade cab that have some filmed footage.
    Technically interesting is that the arcade machine has three CPUS - a V30 (8086 clone), a 68000 and a Z80. Talk about having your 80s hardware cake and eating it!

    Since you included games like Battlefield, I think you honestly could have included GTA 5 (the helicopters actually are pretty good in that game, the worst I've ever seen is Far Cry 5/6, they even fly stable upside down)

  • @OodldoodlNoodlesocks
    @OodldoodlNoodlesocks 6 місяців тому +1

    I feel like Desert Combat should get a mention here. Sure it's a mod but the Battlefield devs didn't even think it was possible to do helicopters on the engine until the modders did it and it lead the way to Battlefield Vietnam.

    2. There are some notable mistakes along the line.

    does someone know a Helicopter game where we play as a air force team consist of 4-5 heli and 2 jets, and we control the team leader. Where the control is using the arrow key, and if you pres the arrow key once, the heli move slowly, and if you press it 3 times it will move faster. The goal is to destroy enemy forces. there are tanks, infantry, etc. The end result menu shows a line of tanks that we destroyed, and in the menu they explode.
    i can't find the name for the life of me and it's killing me.
