When finishing up this video I finally surpassed 80,000 subscribers just wanted to say thanks everyone for all of your continued support.

Rampage is another game that deserves the VIP treatment. The original video I did was six years ago and was only nine minutes long. This one runs at a whopping 43. I hope you all enjoy the history about one of my favorite monster games.

I remember when the arcade installer put this game in, it was brand new. He tested the game and left a zillion credits still in the machine and left. I played the game for the next three hours flipping stage after stage. My hands hurt by the time I gave up, there were still credits in the machine. Great kid memory I played the newest game for free.

It really baffles me to no end they haven't released a new Rampage with online and offline drop in, drop out co-op. Infinite replay value

I love how much the creator cared about his vision and did the legwork despite the pushback and lack of cooperation. This was one of my favorite games and certainly helped me sort out the jerks in my friend group. "We agreed no attacking each other Bill".

Brian Colin is legitimately one of the nicest people I’ve met in the industry and it makes it even better he had a large hand in this game, Spy Hunter, Sarge and Blasted. General Chaos on the Sega Genesis as well.

Every time The Patman releases a new video, it makes me grin from ear to ear. One of the best video game history channels on YouTube. Keep up the good work!

Rampage is a game near and dear to the hearts of myself and my childhood friend. Ages ago, he used to play peewee league hockey, and the hockey rink he played at had a Rampage cabinet on property. Long story short, he and I would always have to play against each other on that cabinet before we left after his hockey games. To this day, we still play a round against each other if we can find a still working cabinet in the wild.

I loved Rampage as a kid. I still love it today!

This is an absolute classic and one that I dumped many many quarters into back in the 80s. The first time I played, smashed up the buildings and ate the humans, was an incredible experience and I couldn't get enough. Plus the fact that two others can join in on the madness made it all that much more fun.

I've always loved this game for its art style. I remember seeing this style on a lot of games from that time. I didn't realize it basically all came from one man. Very informative.
Rampage will never get old.

Great video! I remember saving up allowance money to buy Rampage World Tour for the N64. I met Brian Colin a couple of times at conventions, and I loved hearing him talk about making Rampage and other games. He even autographed a couple of my games!

In 1987, my parents took me to Atlantic City, and gave me a hundred dollars, to spend the day at the arcade, while they were at the casino. I remember Rampage… I was mesmerized by this game. I have no idea how much money I spent, but I had a blast that day

Rampage is one of many video games I drew fan art for. For this particular drawing, I incorporated the plots of World Tour and Total Destruction. I also decided to feature not only the monsters but also their human counterparts adding a hint of origin story to each one.
