Zeus presents Cobra (un-emulated) for the zx spectrum, a true classic from the golden era of spectrum gaming which should not be forgotten alongside the software house and all programmers that were involved in making this game.

Year of release: 1986
Bad film?!...yeah, bad game?!...well it ain't the best that's for sure.
The idea of the game is you must collect all 4 burger bonuses, rescue poor Bridget and get to the far right of the level to progress to the next, there are 3 stages in total and then you must face Slasher in the warehouse...took me just 1 solid headbutt lol.
This game has is a combination of Cobra, Rocky, Green Beret and a dash of Hyper sports crowd noise thrown in, it's a very hard game especially for those who don't spend time on it, i myself would've died a hundred times if it wasn't for the invincibility cheat.
Sound fx are ok,...very similar to Green Beret, the title music annoyed me at first but the more i listened to it the more i began to like it and the action is fast but can get difficult to beat all the baddies especially when armed only with a headbutt.
It's ok but as said not the best game out there.
I have used the invincibility poke so i could upload the entire game for your viewing pleasure.

Hope all you Spectrum fans enjoy this upload.

Please note: NONE of my game uploads are emulated in any way whatsoever, they are 100% original recordings by myself taken directly from the original hardware the game was intended for, that way you know you're watching the real thing.
I will also always state weather i am using any cheats in the game, if not mentioned then i am not using any.
