One of the greatest Commodore 64 games of all-time, and I believe this game is underrated by the vast majority of people here.
If anything, why did this C64 game get despised for? I believe Super Mario Bros. ripped off The Great Giana Sisters and not the other way around.
Still a way better game than Super Mario Bros.
>Up to jump
Things sure were rough for computer gamers back in the day, huh?
Not really, I bought a knockoff SMS pad and wired the second button as up back in 91.
>t: never used a joystick
Being a rip off of SMB
But still a great game.
This was pretty much the standard for c64 platformer.
Jet Set Willy and Monty Mole games had a jump button though.
>why did this C64 game get despised for?
that never happened. it still is loved by a lot of people.
> <something> back in the day, huh?
zoom zoom, zoomy zoomzoom. zoomy zooomzoomzoomerzoom fr fr no cap etc.etc.
>C64 music was often written completely independent from games and developers just used what tracks they had on hand at the time.
false. many musicians were working in-house or remotely knowing what their work was being used in and also being told what to do.

This. See Martin Galway or Rob Hubbard
what the fuck, this is bullshit. masters of doom said there were no scrolling games before commander keen on computers
This. Carmack invented computer games
He was probably talking about the IBM PC. The PC is still dogshit for computer games, only that powerful graphics cards have been developed for it that do all the graphics work (even PCs without graphics cards have integrated graphics chips because the PC itself can't do it).
The game is fine. It's a bit like Mario on ice.
Giana Sisters over Mario Bros anyday of the week, twice on Sundays.
Old meme is old.
Up to what extent will anti-nintendo people go?
>tfw you and your bro become history before finally being made to move over
that was a funny remark though.
>underrated by the vast majority of people here
Don't kid yourself; most people have no idea this game exists.
>oi lads, what if we made a shitty copy of a successful game and intentionally made it as cringe as possible? that'd be a laugh innit?
The game itself doesn't look that cringy. The artworks, on the other hand...
It was more like
>ACHTUNG SIEG, SAY HANS, WHAT IF WE TOOK A COPY OF THIS ASIATIC MONGOLOID UNTERMENSCHENSPIEL AND ADDED STURMKRIEG AND BRATWURSTWAFFELHOSEN, JA?
It was developed by a German studio and published by a German publisher
daaaamn
Put a bra on, you nasty bitch.
Look at her BARE FEET yum!
The music by Christian Hülsenbeck is GOAT.
I prefer pic related cover. The "Brothers are history." really sells it.
do you ever see a thread op that just fucking exhausts you and you're just like ugggggghhhhh guess we have to do this now
Not much. I mean, I can ignore a thread in the catalog. What bothers me is when I see a good topic, and then the interior of the thread is useless. The thread might be a pile of useless memes, or you might have that one person in the thread that acts personally offended that anyone in the thread would be discussing the subject instead of having discussed it elsewhere at length before visiting that one pristine special threat.
Anyone know whats up with the new game? I got it free on steam but never downloaded it because it looks soulless
There's like three new games.
I liked the one that came on DS (and was later ported to PC) since it was still 2D and characters were kinda cute and well animated.
Explains why the music is so aggressive compared to mario and the artwork features a porn lady holding a dildo.
It's just a generic bouncy game tune.
The hame had like three or four different tunes. Did you even play the game?
welcome to Ganker, where the userbase just makes shit up and hope to god they don't get called out on their compulsive lies. enjoy your stay.
C64 music was often written completely independent from games and developers just used what tracks they had on hand at the time.
That's just early computer programmers being bad at their job. There's absolutely no shortage of early C64, Atari etc games that just feature exactly one song that plays endlessly throughout the entire runtime of the game, title screen included. Miyamoto mogged everyone.
I don't think Great Gianna Sisters was really "despised" or anything. Nintendo just got pissy about it and filed a lawsuit.
It's one of the best games on the C64 with a fantastic soundtrack to boot. The DS revisit it got years later was also very good.
