    The sound in this game is just awesome. The music is some of my favorite arcade music of all time, and the sound effects are really cool, too.

    sunk a billion quarters into this game as a kid in the 80s, think it was at the local bowling alley. thanks for the memories!
    also, love how time progresses in the first stage (day to nite)
    waaaay ahead of its time!

    Yeah I was visiting a friend who was playing Volgarr The Viking and I instantly thought of Rastan when I was watching him. Just got back home to reminisce about this game and watch some videos. Gonna pick up Volgarr as well.

    FANTASTIC GAME. Back in the late 80s,early 90s, this was in the only arcade-and a small one at that- in town. Id spend ages watching lads play this,- and the music always stuck with me- its incredible.The main theme is awesome, but the soaring drama and emotion gained by the "castle" theme still gets me like a boss after all these years. I too had the c64 version-very sluggish,but good to have at least at the time.
    You just cant beat classic footage like this for much needed nostalga.

    I never payed much attention to the name of this game, but absolutely loved it as a kid. Was never good enough to beat the first castle's flame pit. But anyway, many years later, I would always try to find it in arcades, with no luck. And, not knowing the name, never helped. So, I would try and describe it to people best. I could by saying it had a dude that looked like Conan the Barbarian, and every time he jumped, he would be like "hu, hu, hu". I would try to replicate the sound, but very badly lol! Same with when he died, I would try to do the scream, but again, badly. I said the music was really epic, I could hear it perfectly inside my head, and dramatic. But, after many years of searching for it and trying to describe it to people, I was literally about to just give up and let it be lost to my memory forever. Then, one day I was going through some used PS2 games I was going to buy, and I saw Taito Legends. I didn't know that they made Rastan at the time, but lo and behold, there it was, right on the back, a picture of the game! Turns out it was one of the games in the collection found on this PS2 disc. So, naturally I bought it right up, took it home, fired up my PS2, and there it was...the game, Rastan, in all it's arcade glory. Took me nearly twenty years to find that damn game, but you can bet i will always remember the name of it now!

    • @kentuckylife2724
      @kentuckylife2724 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      wow this is almost my life story also , I never paid attention to the name but i dumped hundreds of quarters in it only to get to last boss and not be able to kill him , It seemed alot harder to me he did like 3 hits on bosses and they died . I wander if the difficulty is turned down...

    Those big statues in the mountainous background look suspiciously like the Argonath in Lord of the Rings.

    The original japanese's plot had rastan attempting to slay a dragon in exchange for the kingdom's treasure...the american version made it seem like he just had an urge to walk around and kill monsters, which actually kinda makes him EVEN MORE badass
