Those mountains in the C64 version are amazing, it's like a child's drawing of dinosaur feet. I want to know who at Atarisoft looked at that and thought "yeah, we're good to ship this".
I love how in the Atari 2600 version, you can enable the song by switching the difficulty levers. Also, an ad with the theme song from this exact game played before this video for a game called "Legends of Monsterd: Idle"! Proud owner of the aforementioned 1983 port.
Interesting that the Spectrum version offers the ability to save the high score table to tape. I don't think I've seen that feature on any other Spectrum game. I wonder if anyone actually used it.
Not shown in this video, but when the Buggy crashes on the MSX version, the driver is launched out of the vehicle and land on his tailbone. A pretty funny detail.

I’m currently playing the Arcade version on Evercade which is very fun, but I remember playing the Atari ST version a lot back in the day and totally forgot how much I enjoyed it and how good the graphics were, I’ll have to give it another go. Also enjoyed the 2600 version the little moon buggy looks like it’s walking 😂
It seems the Commodore 64, ColecoVision and Gameboy Color are the best of the bunch, though the Atari 2600 is remarkably good for the hardware, surprisingly more playable than the 5200 and ST versions even! Besides that, the NEC PC-8001mkII and ZX Spectrum seem nearly unplayable, even the Apple ][ and VIC-20 are better, in fact, those versions look damn near decent for the hardware. Also, not sure why they even bothered with the Composite CGA graphics on the IBM PC version, they don't make the game any more colorful really.
There's one version you might have forgot to include in your list. The Tandy CoCo & Dragon 32 had an unofficial version of Moon Patrol done by Microdeal, but they named it 'Lunar Rover Patrol' to avoid copyright. But in essence, it is the same game...
Привет, автор! Я очень рад, что ты решил создать такой гениальный канал :) Делаешь обзоры на версии ностальгирующих игр, и другое :) Кстати, давай новый обзор на версии игры PAC-MAN или PAC-MANIA? Игра PAC-MAN у тебя самое популярное на канале :) Сможешь снять обзор? Например: ты в своём самом популярном видео забыл добавить версию amstrad cpc. Я кстати сейчас на unity свою пародию на pac-mania делаю, смотрю видеоурок в ютубе :) Но если снять не сможешь - ничего страшного😅 у тебя на съёмки самого популярного видео ушло 3 недели. Ты так в комментариях говорил... Может, мне тоже на свой канал такое видео снять - "обзор на разные версии PAC-MAN"?
Я очень рада, что вам нравится канал. Версию CPC я не добавлял, потому что видимо она не официальная. Я планировал в ближайшее время снять видео по Pac-Man. Думаю, этим летом. Любопытно, что я знаю Unity, я учитель в школе и веду занятия по программированию на C# и Unity. Всего наилучшего.
Looking at the arcade, I was trying to guess which systems could pull off a faithful port. And the C64 and ST came to mind. However neither came even close. Then we came across the ZX wreck tum.
I have a Gameboy version that comes with Spy Hunter on one cart. I'm sure it is better than what was shown on this video. I'm now curious 🤔 I'll try it later.
Dinamic Software a Spanish 8 Bit game developer in the 80's released Army Moves whose first level is like this game changing the lunar module for a military jeep that shoots a/a and t/a missiles while jumping on a broken metallic bridge.
There was a PC game based on the Jonah VeggieTales movie from 2002 that included a minigame based on Moon Patrol. You controlled Jonah on his camel, Reginald, & jumped over pits, rocks, & bushes, & when you pushed the spacebar, you'd fire a cheese curl into the air to defend against buzzards dropping eggs & Reginald would spit forward to take out snakes & scorpions on the ground. (I'm not making this up.)
@@jasonlee7816 sorry if you don’t agree but that is my opinion. I hope your response is based in the fact you own both platforms. Of course I do own both platforms along with every Atari platform plus a Colecovision, PlayStation. Of course the Atari 8bit and the 5200 are identical since the 5200 is nothing more an Atari 400
Got to be honest, most versions look pretty rough apart from Arcade, ST and Gameboy. It's obvious the coder on the C64 version wasn't terribly talented and I'm a C64 fan.
Apple II looks pretty basic. Atari 8-bit: sprites look awful, but plays well. C64: could have been technically much better. DOS: flickery mess. ZX: thats a joke, probably not an official release.

Moon Patrol was a Favorite next to Choplifter in Elementary Computer Lab.
Everyone wanted to play Oregon Trail, I Was a Moon Patrol Kid

Ii seems strange to me that the music in the Atari 2600 version is not enabled by default...
This is also one of the first games to use parallax scrolling!
Before pac-land, which is not a first parallax scrolling, but is one of the first side scrolling platformers before super mario bros!
a year before Moon Patrol 1981 Jump Bug arcade game is or was the 1st (first) to use parallax scrolling
Interesting that the Spectrum version offers the ability to save the high score table to tape. I don't think I've seen that feature on any other Spectrum game.

My favorite after the arcade is the MSX, only because I had it in a cartridge version as a kid.
There is an excellent homebrew port of Moon Patrol to Vectrex.
The Atari st, gbc ,c64, coleco prototype & arcade ports were my favorite ports.
I remember this, always loved what my cousins could get for the Apple II. Packages from them and my aunt and uncle in LA were appreciated back then.
It was fun to try and play this on an Apple //+ with accelerator. That was _hard_ mode. Or rather _impossible_ mode.
Played the heck out of the c64 version as a kid. 2600 is also remarkably playable and a good port for the system.
Grew up with the TI version. It is, therefore, objectively the best one.
Why Wasn't MOON PATROL Ported to the NES?
That's What I Want to Know
Not shown in this video, but when the Buggy crashes on the MSX version, the driver is launched out of the vehicle and land on his tailbone. A pretty funny detail.
Hahaha yes, I saw it and it made me think if it would be worth making a video dedicated to death animations of this game
@@retrosutra Haha. I'd watch it.

Moon Patrol on the Colecovision must be an Arcade Perfect port! Same goes for the Gameboy Color, even though it's got the music key wrong.
The best version is undoubtedly the Atari ST from 1987. It beats even the arcade ones.
Moon Patrol on the Atari ST seems to look, move, sound out of place v arcade game
To me, the 2600 version still is the best to play, even having not so great graphics, it still keeps music and parallax.
Yes, is very playable.
I’m currently playing the Arcade version on Evercade which is very fun, but I remember playing the Atari ST version a lot back in the day and totally forgot how much I enjoyed it and how good the graphics were, I’ll have to give it another go.

Game Boy Color FTW!
There was Technically an old flash game on Cartoon Network that was a variant of this. It starred Dee Dee from Dex's lab and her friends in it.
Remembered the name.
Dee Dee's Moon Squad... I Remember it being very buggy too.
I love how the Atari vehicle looks like it’s walking

Also, Martin patrol for TRS-80 model 1 is better than the PC-8001 mkii and ZX Spectrum if you can get past the blocky graphics
Atari 2600 is not or was not a good port (version) i doubt it is more playable than on Atari ST
There's one version you might have forgot to include in your list. The Tandy CoCo & Dragon 32 had an unofficial version of Moon Patrol done by Microdeal, but they named it 'Lunar Rover Patrol' to avoid copyright. But in essence, it is the same game...
This video covers official versions only although I could make one dedicated to the unofficial ones and include that CoCo / Dragon 32 port.

Amazing

I think Atari ST is the best version, but Game boy version still very playable nowadays!!! Game boy color FOREVER!!
I have a Gameboy version that comes with Spy Hunter on one cart. I'm sure it is better than what was shown on this video. I'm now curious 🤔 I'll try it later.
I was recalling about Amstrad CPC, and It had an unofficial versión named Moon Buggy
Atari ST did or does look best
Atari ST didn’t sound the best
C64 sound the best vs Atari ST
Why wasn't this Coleco prototype released?? It's better than the finished C64 version...!!

C64 could’ve got a better port in 1985, 1986, 1987
ST might have got a better port in 1988, 1989, 1990
a pity (shame) Amiga didn’t get a Moon Patrol an updated port
It might've looked the same as Atari ST, so it doesn't matter
it does matter for Amiga owners
I definately had it on Commodore 16/Plus 4
Atari ST was pretty darn close to the arcade next the Atari 5200 and Atari 8 bit and I was shocked at the C 64 looked terrible.
Get your eye sight checked or tested Atari 5200 and Atari 8-bit port is graphically awful, crap, garbage, horrible, rubbish

Atari St wins this round
Apple II looks pretty basic. Atari 8-bit: sprites look awful, but plays well. C64: could have been technically much better. DOS: flickery mess. ZX: thats a joke, probably not an official release.
first good port =C64, great prototype on Intelivison ... then long long nothing
