Anyone remember Cannon Fodder?

Seem's like they're going to make another one!

I really hope it's not shit.

Classic game, the sound track was a bit UB40 though!

 

[Ormorof]

loved that game

 

[PLightstar]

My god. Used to play that game for hours. Had it on my old Sony Z160i but was hard to play as the phone buttons were too close together.

Matchstick men football sucked, they were so small they made a generation of videogame nerds need glasses.

I hope they keep it simple and old tyle and not get all gimmicky fancy 2k on it.

EDIT: Ah. Allow me to bring you back down to Earth with a bump. Codemasters has told Eurogamer that despite GFI’s plans to release the game for both PC and Xbox 360, they do not have plans to release the games outside of Russia and the CIS territitories. Here’s a picture of the CIS territories. Do you live there? Didn’t think so. Perhaps if GFI knock the game out of the park, Codemasters will look at bringing the game to the rest of the globe. The original news story follows.

Sweet Jesus. Cannon Fodder was amazing. I still remember watching my brother play through it.

Also classic amiga games Lost Vikings and Chuck Rock. Just fun.

Haha, Canon Fodder... Tried so hard to make Jools, Jops and the rest of the gang survive until the very end. Never managed it though.

Had to load up the intro just now, had totally forgotten about the poppy!

[Wazzerphuk]

I forget all the games I used to play on Amstrad... did have an emulator and LOADS of games a while back, not sure if I still do or it's still going... some amazing stuff.

 

[Wazzerphuk]

Turns out it was MAME, I still have it, although an old version. Will get newer version and some classic roms later methinks. \o/

Sadly not, it's the 1984 smash* Fruit Machine.

anyways stupid question but jon hare and some of the sensi software peeps ended up at codemasters yet apart from SWOS on XBL and the decent port of cannon fodder on GBA what the hell have they done? wonderful waste of bonkers talent

same goes to molly at lionhead amazing games in the 90s with bullfrog now just a mumbling zombie who pimps the same game over and over again ( fable)
