  • Sort of a TAS/playthrough, I guess it's not the best but I thought I'd put mine up. Tool assisted because there's nobody that could or would want to beat this game without cheating.

      Might be the only NES rendition of the Russian national anthem. And they did a great job with it.

      So are the cut scenes (taken directly from the film0. Too bad the game itself didn't match this quality.

    Remember in the movie when they had to blow their way out of a harbour full of opening and closing docks and platforms, dodging mines placed in their own harbour and midget submarines shooting at them?

    I beat this one in high school. I was obsessed with the film at the time. Hard ass game...and that last level was just the icing on the hardcore cake.
    Always thought it was weird that the sub looks nothing like the Typhoon/Akula class that RO belonged to

    There were hard games, and then there was this. It was designed to kill you. If the almost impossible to navigate levels didn't get you, then the homing missiles would. That's if you managed to survive on a power supply that ran out faster than a Game Gear. Oh and forget fighting your way through. You'll run out of weapons long before you reach the end.
    I only found at today that that final level existed.... and is entirely different from the rest of the game!

    • @L1011Widebody
      @L1011Widebody  9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      simonpreston I remember beating this game having to use a Game Genie (you know, back when those were actual physical things) using Infinite or 99 subs or something like that. But it didn't help in the sabotage stage. Which I never was able to defeat... until now. Well, until I made the video at least.

      Many years ago I beat the final stage for my step father when he found out that the infinite lives cheat doesn't work on that level. Man that was hard.

      @@L1011Widebody man this brings back so many memories! I had this on my Family Game console (which I guess is similar to Game Genie?). I remember it was difficult AF! I couldn't have been any older than 10 or 11 at the time but I managed to get to the Sabotage level without any cheat codes but could never figure out how to solve that damn level!!

    Considering a Typhoon class submarine is 175m long, the skeleton at the ocean floor at 16:21 is the biggest animal ever discovered.

      @L1011Widebody  10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Not only that but Wikipedia states the Red October is even *larger*, at 198m length. I don't know where they get that from (I haven't read the book, and I haven't seen the movie in years), but damn! (or the Russian equivalent of 'damn')

    My story : I was with my dad at a flea market and some dude was selling NES cartridges. I initially picked up one with Tiny Toons , dad gave him the money and we went on our way. After 30 min or so i changed my mind, i pissed off my dad because we had to go back and i chose this game instead because i liked the picture on the cartridge with the submarine.
    We went home, game sucked major ass, i sucked even more for not passing the 3rd level and dad was chill watching football with a cold beer. Love you dad !

    man that is one big ass engine-room for a submarine not that mention that they have 30+ cooks on board; also nice to know the commies have secret underwater bases; oh well at least in this version the Captain wasn't lying to his crew when he told them they were going to the tropics for some R&R : D

    14:00 I don't know how my 7-8 year old ass stumbled onto this when I was playing this, BUT... With this aircraft carrier boss, if you killed yourself just after destroying the ship, you would start the next level with 99 lives. It's a trick that I forgot how to do, but it was how I was able to beat the game the first time lol
