LGR - Rampage - DOS PC Game Review

One of the earlier adaptations of Bally Midway's arcade classic, Rampage! Smash buildings and eat pesky humans, all while admiring those chunky EGA graphics. Even if you can play arcade-perfect ports today, there's still something special here.

great video as usual Sir Clint! Glad someone else has so much love for old computer games!

I always liked the N64 Rampage the best, was totally what got me into the series.

The Rampage I remember is the laggy emulation copy that came in some "smiley" toolbar my mum installed on the old windows 98 family computer. I spent hours on that as a kid, I always got blamed for installing games and giving the computer viruses though.

I still love Rampage. Was one of my first games on the Sega Mastersystem.

[VargavinterSWE]

Wow! I just showed Rampage to my 4-year old son yesterday for theirs time. It was one if the earliest arcade game I played as a kid. Love it.

The last minute of this video is among the best of your work. So good.

[SeraphimKnight]

The N64 sequel was one of my favorite games as a kid. Some real nostalgia there.

The anecdote about the internet of yesteryear was a nice reminder how good we have it today.

I can’t believe they’re making a movie based on this game, the world is weird

[daveshmups]

You hit the nail right on the head as to why gamers still love these old arcade ports. I never had a DOS PC, but I did have an NES, and I still love some of the arcade ports on the NES, even though I know that I can easily play the arcade originals.

I always remember the awe I felt for the arcade as a child for the exact reasons you're saying. We had a 286 at home and sure I could play Street Fighter or something like it but.. It wasn't the mighty cabinet, with deep thumping bass and heavy controls.

i love you MSDOS. i need you in my life to this day.

[Drinkabeerandplayagameofficial]

retro DOS goodness. reminds me of going to my friend's house and watching him game

[KatBuckleyXOX]

love your voice its so soothing, and helps me both relax and study, thank you.

[FyberOptic]

I used to play this in CGA a lot, and still couldn't resist poking a quarter in the arcade version when I'd see it.

[yerunski]

Thanks Clint for bringing back good memories while playing this game as a kid :)

[Dosgamert]

So this is where Wreck-It Ralph came from ;)

[tonk]

Back when diferent systems had diferent ports. Its always fascinating going back and comparing each version of the games. Its something that lasted till ps2/gc/xbox era i think.

I met the guy who did the sprites/artwork for the arcade version. Really nice guy.
