Jim Leonard | Playing Cosmic Crusader on an IBM PC @JimLeonard | Uploaded September 2015 | Updated October 2024, 10 hours ago.
The following is footage of Cosmic Crusader, developed by Michael Abrash in 1982. It is not a complete playthrough, but rather just enough gameplay to serve as a reference for how the game looks and feels on the original hardware.
This footage was recorded from an IBM PC (8088 CPU running at 4.77MHz) with a ("new-style") CGA card. The audio was tapped from the PC speaker and the video was recorded from the CGA composite output. The result was post-processed from 30i to 60p; all source frames are intact. This video can be considered a reference for how this game performs on this platform.
