Now, you can say whatever you like about the movie, I only saw it once and it seemed kinda dumb and it had that horrible hell beast Sandra Bernhard in it, and isn’t it good that we live in a world without her in it now, but I will not hear anyone disparage the Hudson Hawk video game.
It was a cute, colourful bouncy platformer that was a lot better than it otherwise should have been. You played as Hudson and you had to steal stuff, and avoid traps – it was basically a stealth platformer with the occasional funny bit where you threw balls to distract guard dogs. Yeah, it wasn’t going to set the world on fire but it was a game i totally didn’t regret buying at the time, not that I ever finished the darn thing.
AND it came with a Hudson Hawk hat in the box, that was neat.



Horrible interests confirmed. I decided to wander over here again for some reason, and this is what I see. You actually LIKE the Hudson Hawk video game? It’s an irredeemable piece of crap! Do you have ANY taste at all?
Then again, with your commodore 64 fetish it doesn’t matter. “I’ve never been a fan of Prince of Persia BUT THEY PORTED IT TO THE COMMODORE 64 OH MY GOD” pfffft. If they had brought Custer’s Revenge or Strip Fighter 2 to the commodore 64 you would declare them to be the finest games around and defend them for years.
Ah well. Carry on wasting your life, and have a nice day
Heh, thanks
I did think it was a solidly made platformer with charm and colour – I liked how the jumping felt, the ball mechanics felt good, and the stealth was a nice change of pace from the manic pace of most C64 platformers of the time.
But you definitely have a point about the C64 fetish
