GIVE MY REGARDS TO BROAD STREET | Commodore 64 (1985)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 19 июн 2024
- Give My Regards To Broad Street, for the Commodore 64, based on a flop 1984 movie of the same name! You play as music star Paul McCartney whose master tape for his new album has been accidentally erased. The engineers have managed to recover all the tracks except the first single "No More Lonely Nights".
You must read each person's profile to anticipate their movement and go to major London locations or subway Tube stations where they might appear. A large scale map of London and a Tube map were supplied with the game
The upper two-thirds of the screen usually shows a top-down view of the roads and your car as you guide it. It then will show a scene when you encounter a band member. The lower portion of the screen is your car's on-board computer showing an image of the next person to meet, the Tube station they will go in or out of and the time remaining

I like the comparison to Miami Vice, as similarly, played it with a mate and we loved driving around the city, but had no idea what we were supposed to be doing. Both games, being poorly received, we never found any tips or guides, so we never had a clue what to do to progress.
I've watched longplays for both ... And i think I'll leave the nostalgia there 😂
There were plenty of games for the Commodore 64 that'd just 'dump' you in the game and expect you to be a superbrain genius to figure out what to do next haha. I remember another game I was really intrigued with called 'Max Headroom' but it took me 20 years to figure out what the hell was going on haha 😇🕹️👌
ad this in its big box format. My brother and i quite liked it, yeah was tough but as kids driving around London was fun. Funnily enough whenever i visit the smoke and see one of the Stations for real i always think of the game.
The big box looks great, trying to find a decent priced copy for the collection. Ideally with the map etc intact... cool game actually, well worth playing for those who haven't played it before 😇🕹👌
This game was HUGE back in the day!
Was such a massive game too, the roads and landmarks must have taken some time to map together for the programmers 😇🕹️👌
Remember this game well from 80’s. I had orginal disk version and still do. It was very famous of having full London map. To be honest I never got anywhere at this game. Even you drive how much around with car. Try find long play of this game because so curious how’s ending. Never find video with ending. Different C64 groups had talk about this game and understand there wasn’t ending? You get to studio and mixer but nothing happens after that? If there’s ending I love to see that😊
Once all band members are found, the player returns to Abbey Road Studios to mix the song, ending the game... as far as I am aware, that was the very last part of the game - he just stands there with his yellow guitar playing the whole music to "Band on the Run" 😇🕹️👌
This sounds like a great game, as I've always been a fan of The Rolling Stones!
You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you might find, you get what you need 😇🕹️👌
I've never played this game. The funny thing is... for the first half of the video I thought, "This looks kinda like that Miami Vice game I played that I didn't really understand at the time." Then you mentioned Miami Vice. LOL!
Ocean definitely stole some ideas here I think! Its uncannily similar 😇🕹️👌
The driving screen, looks like one of my 1st games i bought SIREN CITY
Haha, I was thinking the same thing. 😄🚓
Classic that game, the precursor to Grand Theft Auto? Haha 😇🕹️👌
It does look like it though diesn't it 😇🕹️👌
learned something new from your channel yet again
Ahh awesome, revisiting these games and giving them some context is hopefully inspiring us to replay these awesome classics from the 80s 😇🕹👌
I played this one a lot. What a strange little game...!
As I recall, if you turn the car so that your front end is through the side of the street, you can very slowly "glitch" your way through the solid scenery, one lurch at a time, losing points all the way. Also, I remember there being an "easter egg" text message from the programmers in the middle of one of the parks that you were only ever likely to see if you did such "glitching", or if the game dragging your car back to the studio after a collision or ticket happened to pan the screen across it. (Don't remember precisely what it said, though.)
I love easter eggs in games... and hidden secrets. Never knew about the text message from the programmers but now I'm intrigued to find it 😇🕹️👌
Getting a song together and record it at the studio - that reminds me of "To be on top" by sound magician Chris Hülsbeck (published by Rainbow Arts in 1987) .. would love to see that one here on your channel ☺😇
Classic game that, was mindblowing for it's day... Chris' Masterpiece with the song 'Like A Surgeon' always being one my faves. I've added it to the list - it'll see the channel someday 😇🕹️👌
I had thus...I quite liked it!
Cool, not a bad little driving game is it - good little sleuth sort of game which needed a bit of thought and pre-planning 😇🕹️👌
If they contracted to have a game made based on the movie, they must have thought that the movie was going to do much better than it did. Seems like a pretty ambitious game idea though.
Thats what I was thinking, because you'd imagine a film with Paul McCartney would have had millions of followers... however, I believe it was terrible - still not seen it yet 😇🕹️👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer It's got 25 and 30% on Rotten Tomatoes (critics and audience), but at least the game follows the movie storyline pretty close: "A rock star (Paul McCartney) daydreams that he will be ruined unless he finds a missing master tape by midnight."
I wonder if you can run down Beatles fan tourists who pose on the Zebra crossing outside Abbey Road studios like most Londoners try and do? 😂
Haha yeah that'd be a good little mini game 🤣🕹👌
Movie is a very fine piece for the people having sensibilities of the earlier period, perhaps when Beatles ruled the 60's. Probably weird for the 80's, but that's not the movie's fault. Public changed, I guess, and the society. Perhaps it was way too "retro" for the time. Hey, we are C64 fans, we should understand that.
And game was very much different than other usual games of the era. Has its own personality, has educative component ("get to know London!"), follows the movie theme and deals with music, and is peacuful - there are no violence, as expected from so many games back then. Especially movie tie-ins.
I'm glad these two related pieces exist.
Very true, a non-violent but excellently developed game. Also good for those who have good knowledge of London in general as the majority of the streets and tube stations are instantly recognisable for them 😇🕹️👌
@@CheekyCommodoreGamer , but imagine people who never visited London before, but playing this game first! They get to experience it, LEARN, and then at some point in their lives get to drive around London. And say - "oh yeah, I remember this route, thank you oh you weird little game! " 🥰
No scrolling while driving in Miami Vice, tho!
Very true! The developers, 'Concept Software' did a very good job with this game 😇🕹️👌
Paul McCartney's version of Grand Theft Auto.
Haha yeah - precisely 🤣🕹👌
Never sen this but looks fun
Nice little driving game, especially for those who like reading maps and have plenty of patience and planning skills! 😇🕹️👌
I had no clue what I was meant to do in this one as a kid, it just, didnt make one lick of a sense. Lack of context all around, it was kind of fun to drive the car, ah to enjoy such simple things again
You're not the only one... but likewise, I enjoyed the exploration aspect as a kid and was fascinated at how huge the game map was in general. Plenty of work went into this game that's for certain 😇🕹👌
This Commodore 64 game seems kinda simple 😹👍🕹️.
Then again, i could give a try 😸😺👍🕹️.
If you are good at memorising streets from maps, this game could be a classic - otherwise, prepare to get lost a few times 😇🕹️👌
Shame he didn't lose the master tapes of Mull of Kintyre...I HATE that song...
You're not the only one!! 😉🕹👌🎶💩
