Turrican!
« on: May 20, 2010, 06:04:01 AM »
so.. I have set myself the goal of playing every Turrican game and version there was.

Im familiar with the first two for the C64, and all 3 on the amiga. Looks like there were quite a few others as well, so I'll have to break out the emulators.

So ..lets talk about Turrican. Fave music pieces, fave levels, how each version compared to each other etc

Thanks for the links guys!

So far, Im brawling my way through Turrican on the C64.
I am very pleasantly surprised. Its a great game and they achieved some very cool things on the machine. I still prefer the amiga version, if nothing else, due to the outstanding music.

Anyone know if the ST version had anything going for it ?

Im not great at it, but I can generally make it to the space ship sections, then I'll die horribly :)

Quote from: Einstein;560022
I have finished all three amiga games. Actually for the first time, back in 2004.
I have Super Turrican under ZSNES, and sure it's pretty, but somehow I never got hooked playing beyond the second few levels.


I really really really can't stand pushing a button to jump, so that'll hurt when I get to the nintendo and megadrive ones...
