But I love it more when you talk and get all hyper and stuff.
But your video still makes me want to play the game.

Well that sound track was not really nothing special. Just typical game music for game from that era.

So, this is the Ivanhoe game you were telling me about? Hmm. It seems pretty sweet. I mean for a game on that system. It has decent graphics. I'd play it. I like some fighting games. You do have a talent of getting people to want to play this game. I thought was based on the movie. Ah well. Good review of a game I really didn't know.

Hmmm - is it just me or do your hitpoints mysteriously never go down even though you get own pretty heavily? ^^
Well - it's about the music anyway - good job with the choice.

I can seriously say I have played Ivanhoe. It was at my uncle's house. I lost in the first few minutes!

The music for this game is pretty awesome. I love 8-bit music. That's why I cherish my Nintendo so much

The game looks pretty awesome too, I need to find it.

Yep Benzaie, I played Ivanhoe on my Amiga 500 and I remember it well (so I guess you'll have to cut...). Are you sure the Amiga soundtrack was inferior to this one? I know Atari ST had a better sound chip but to be honest this soundtrack sounds pretty bad - I've heard better instruments on NES!

actually as it's said in the video; the tracks are actually different, from one version to another and I like the ATARI ST tracks better, but the composition is different from one version to another...

01.25.2009 - 08:53 | S_Pac_3:16 - Nope...
can't say I have played Ivanhoe. Interesting music though...

Nice video, the game looks pretty cool but I'd rather have the voice over than the text. I find the text distracts from what is going on in the video.

Wish I had played this game at its epoch. Too bad some people played it, and now you'll loose your phallus.

Thank you for making me remember this game! Yes I used to play it, no please dont cut any body parts in two.

I loved it (the graphics were really good for its time, and the music was awesome) even if it always kicked my butt. ESPECIALLY that horse-riding scene. Gamers have it easy these days...

Little Drum sample ?! It's not a sample, it's a simple and short Noise making a metronome style beat (4 in a bar) made with the YM2149 (soundchip of the Atari ST)...Sorry to write these words and looks like a real douche but I just loooove that soundchip !!! hahaha
and btw I love the Fade-out arp at 4 : 00 !!!
