Green Beret was an action arcade game released by Konami in 1985. It is remembered for its Cold War setting and its reliance on the player using mainly a knife to dispatch enemies, although you were able to collect many different weapons to aid you in combat. Green Beret was one of the hardest games I had ever played and yet was one of the games that gave me the best memories! Sadly however if you had the Commodore 16 version, it was widely regarded as one of the worst video games ever made. Well at least until now…
Original
Arlasoft’s Version
Welcome to Green Beret C16 by Arlasoft. A new version of the game that doesn’t just feature almost all the features from the arcade version. But smooth real-time scrolling, four full-length arcade maps, via multi-load, detailed multi-colour graphics using more of the machine’s 121 colours, soft sprite masking so there aren’t big blue blocks around characters, a flame thrower, rocket launcher and grenades, and all the ground enemies (including kickboxer, dogs, grenadiers, cannons) with added theme music! Seriously this is one of the best releases for the C16 and worth checking out at the link below.
